Teaching Points Dependence on GodThe Israelites' lack of bread and wine underscores their complete dependence on God for sustenance. In our lives, we must recognize our need to rely on God for both physical and spiritual provision. God's Faithfulness Despite the Israelites' disobedience, God remained faithful in providing for their needs. This reminds us of God's unwavering faithfulness in our lives, even when we falter. Spiritual Nourishment Just as the Israelites were sustained by God's provision, we are called to seek spiritual nourishment through God's Word and the Holy Spirit. Recognizing God's Sovereignty The purpose of God's provision was to help the Israelites know that He is the LORD.
