Week 6 | Day 1 I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE John 6:25-59

The day after the miraculous feeding and walking on water event, Jesus met a crowd eager for more bread—but He gave them something far more demanding: truth about who He was. In doing so, He exposed their shallow pursuit and redirected them from a temporary provision to eternal life, declaring Himself the true Bread from heaven, greater than Moses and the manna that sustained Israel in the wilderness. Jesus insisted that the only “work” God requires is faith—believing in the One He has sent—and then pressed the truth home with startling language: to have life, people must “eat His flesh” and “drink His blood,” a vivid picture of personally, fully receiving and depending on His sacrificial life. The crowd then divides—some offended and walking away, others forced to face the central question Jesus raises: will they use Him for what He gives, or trust Him for who He is?

APPLICATION
 
1. Examine Your Motive for Following Jesus

Am I seeking Him primarily for comfort, solutions, or provision—or for relationship and truth?

2. Identify Your Souls Deepest Hunger

Where am you trying to be satisfied apart from Christ—approval, success, control, or security—and are you still “full but empty”?

3. Stop Performing and Start Trusting

Faith isn’t a transaction to manage but a relationship of dependence to receive.

4. Feed Daily on What Last

Scripture before noise, prayer before panic, obedience before options—what we feed on is shaping who we are and are becoming.

5. Remain Even When It’s Hard to Understand

Mature faith says, “Lord, I don’t get everything, but I’m staying with You.” Commitment leads feelings; truth leads appetite.
 
PRAYER

Lord, help me today to feed only on You for my hope and satisfaction. Be the manna that meets me at the point of my need, nurturing and sustaining my soul. Guard my heart from seeking lesser things to satisfy my flesh, and give me a holy appetite—a deep craving for You alone. Amen.
