Manna or Canaan?

Everyone wants Manna! An heavenly baked meal, that tastes like Wafers made from honey (Exodus 16:31), so beautiful to behold that it was likened to Coriander seeds.

The most interesting part? The baker was the heavenly host! Faster than Indomie, zero stress, optimal nutrition. All you have to do is to wake up in the morning, go out, gather for your family and eat!

But guess what? It was a meal for the wilderness! As good as Manna is, it wouldn't continue in Canaan.

Because in Canaan, man takes responsibility. The promise comes with demands. Prophecy and Irresponsibility can't go exist!

Many of us are so used to manna that we no longer crave the promised land. The most dangerous set of people are even those who still expects manna in Cannan. Alas, it doesn't work that way so they're disappointed.

There's a reason Manna had to stop the same year the Israelites entered Canaan, most striking to note, Manna stopped the next day the Israelites ate the fruit from Canaan. Joshua 5:11-12.

That is a wisdom worth having.

I put it to you again: Manna or Canaan?

Think about it. Grace!

Prophecy and Irresponsibility can't co-exist!

Thought provoking! And sometimes I wonder if the major hindrance to purpose fulfilment is convenience.🤔
