Give Us Daily Bread

The following are my Bible study notes based on my pastor's sermon.

Our scripture reference for today is Matthew 6:11.

Give us our daily bread.

 Bread = God’s Word, Spiritual Nourishment

“Soul” Food

Bread = God’s Family

They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Acts 2:42

 Bread = Jesus Christ

Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will not hunger, and he who believes in Me will never thirst. John 6:35

1.  God is my source.

A Great Giver

Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow. James 1:17  

 A Great Provider

And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19

A Great Inviter

Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. Matthew 7:7 

You lust and do not have; so you commit murder. You are envious and cannot obtain; so you fight and quarrel. You do not have because you do not ask. James 4:2

2.  God wants our trust.

We shouldn’t worry.

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. Philippians 4:6

Cease from anger and forsake wrath; Do not fret; it leads only to evildoing. Psalm 37:8

The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace, Because he trusts in You. Isaiah 26:3

When I trust God, I’ll be thankful.

In everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:18

  3.  God wants us to share.
