II Corinthians 4:5-7
"For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, Who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us."

"...It is manna...This is the bread which the LORD hath given you to eat." Exodus 16:15
Israel of old in the wilderness wondered what they were to eat: God gave them "bread from heaven." With this they were not satisfied so they hungered for ordinary meat that they might gorge to their fill. In abundance was it waiting for them, even fresh and "on the wing" dropping down so soon as they asked for it!
These mighty miracles of old actually did take place! God wanted to set the pattern: to paint for us in living drama that which He has prepared for those who love Him even in our here and now! Such is the nature of the covenant He gave unto those who would follow Him.
Again I set forth this series of overwhelming revelation in order that the true believer may know his time is up. Most of so-called believers of today are nowhere near ready for the Lord's return. They have been lulled to sleep by the spurious dogmas of the church, that His kingdom conditions must first be established by man on earth before our Lord can return. Unto this they add that no one shall know the time of His return. All of which serves to put the believer into a state of spiritual slumber. They are lukewarm or worse. Therefore wrote His beloved apostle of old when speaking of the Lord's return, that those who have this hope in them purify themselves even as He is pure. (See I Jn. 3:3.)
