Read Scripture Exodus 16
When the Hebrews were set free from Egypt, it took them 40 years to enter the Holy Land, due to their punishment by God for worshiping a golden calf while Moses was obtaining the 10 Commandments.
Through it all God protected them and sent them food from heaven called manna to sustain them through their journey.
The manna fell 6 days a week. on the 6th day they were to gather enough for 2 days in order to follow God's commandment on keeping the Sabbath.
It fell with the dew and it melted as it warmed up.
It was white like coriander seed and tasted like wafers made with honey.

Each person was allowed 1 omer (6016 `omer o'-mer from 6014; properly, a heap, i.e. a sheaf; also an omer, as a dry measure:--omer, sheaf.) If they had any left over it was to be thrown away or it would get worms in it.
They had to start over everyday except the Sabbath and that was the only day worms did not infest day old manna.
I have always pictured bread falling from the sky, not flakes or grain which is what the bible describes it as.
Read Scripture Numbers 11
The people went around gathering it,and then ground it in a hand mill or crushed it in a mortar. They cooked it in a pot or made it into loaves. And it tasted like something made with olive oil.
The people grew tired of the manna and wanted meat. This angered God. After he delivered them from Egypt and fed them, they AGAIN were not happy with what God had done for them, so God gives them so much meat that they eat it for a month until they loathe it because they rejected the Lord who was among them, saying “Why did we ever leave Egypt?”’
Read Scripture John 6
Jesus tells the crowd he is the bread of life from heaven, as they grumbled about his words he tells them that their ancestors ate manna and perished, but those who eat the bread of life (Yeshua) will have eternal life.
Read Scripture Revelations 2
In Revelations it says that he who overcometh and has ears to hear will get to eat of the hidden manna.
When we get saved from being satan's slave, we hunger for God, but instead of turning to the Lord for all our answers we look to other men to feed us God. We confuse spiritual hunger with how the human body hungers. That is how organized religion came about, because the hunger to worship is there and if the preacher says to worship a golden calf then that's what happens. We are too impatient to put in the time and pray for guidance of the Holy Spirit, but if we take the time and build our personal relationship with Jesus HE WILL feed that hunger we desire! We hunger for manna, the food of heaven. Not only will our hunger be filled but it is a satisfying fulfillment. Then as soon as we slack off the hunger grows for something different, It is not because the Lord is not feeding you, it is because you stopped going to him to eat! NOW YOU WANT MEAT! Well, he will give you all the meat you can stand, but then you get all mad because God is disciplining you, and feel like why did I ever leave my old ways to start with because this is not the fun part of loving God??? Not even realizing that if God punishes you that he truly loves you like we love our children when we punish them! Then when he TRIES to reveal truths to us like JESUS WAS THE MANNA ALL ALONG, you don't believe him because you have let your preacher speak louder than the Lord. Then that's it, you either learn to submit to the Lord and his Holy Spirit for the word or you close your ears to the divine and listen to a human who has as many faults as you or more, leading you astray and you are disobedient! That is why in Revelations 2 it says, 17 Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give some of the hidden manna. I will also give that person a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to the one who receives it.
Be blessed and rely on the Father for your understanding! This is a warning and it is a blessing "for those who have the ears to hear." God bless you all, and I love you so very much!
