Prayer, Tuesday September 22, 2015

Psalm 78 gives a history lesson of the murmuring of the Israelites in the wilderness and includes these words: 

25So mortals ate the bread of angels; *he provided for them food enough.

Provided food enough. And what is this food? Paul talks about it in today’s lesson to the church in Corinth. 1st Corinthians 5 admonishes the Corinthians for immoral behavior, then reminds them also of the kind of food God has given them:

7 Clean out the old yeast so that you may be a new batch, as you really are unleavened. For our paschal lamb, Christ, has been sacrificed. 8Therefore, let us celebrate the festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of malice and evil, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
