God’s mission to the hungry
All around us people are hungry.
John 6
Empty inside, they lave lost happiness that they once had. They have lost friendship and trust of others.
Suicide occurs for the homeless and the one living in a mansion. Why? There’s nothing worth living for.
Just open your eyes, just listen carefully and you will see and hear hungry lives all around. Wasted people delving into other people’s waste for some crumbs of life.
I am the Bread of Life He who comes to me will never go hungry and he who believes in me will never be thirsty. John 6:35
“I am to the very heart of a person what food is to the body”.
Food is necessary, without it you die. Likewise Jesus is vital to every person, without Him, the person dies with no eternal life.
Food is necessary for everyone, old and young, rich and poor. Jesus is for everyone.
Food is needed daily. Jesus is for every day.
He comes and offers:
Acceptance – “Whoever comes to me I will never drive away” v37
Whether it be the type of things you have been involved in. Or the weakness and inabilities that embarrass you. Jesus will accept you. Jesus will never drive you away.
Satisfies – “He comes to me will never go hungry and he who believes in me will never be thirsty” v35.
These negatives are the strongest in the Greek language. They rule out not just the fact but the bare possibility of the fact. He outweighs the greatest desire.
Protection – “I shall lose none of all that He has given me” V39.
True believers may go wrong and fail more times than they care to admit, but they will never be eternally lost. Once you have received Jesus as the King and the Saviour of your life then your life is eternally secure. You are never going to hell. You will be raised into eternal heaven.
