THE MANNA AND THE CORN OF THE LAND

THE MANNA AND THE CORN OF THE LAND

I have been studying the difference in my soul between the manna and the old corn of the land. The manna is Christ’s life as He was here in the days of His humiliation. He gilded everything here in His perfectness. As you walk in the Spirit He feeds you with this grace in every detail of your history here. His life as manna ceased when He died, but it does not cease for us, it is stored up for us in Him. Christ glorified is the old corn of the land. As we feed on Him there, we are in communion with Him as He is at this moment. The manna is as He was, you are to be here as He was here, but He is not here now, He is in heaven, and your heart is not satisfied to know Him as He was; according as you are occupied with Him, you want to be in concert with Him as He is, and that is the old corn of the land. Tell me if you understand this, and if you see the difference between the two. I do not mean see it only, I mean do you know it?
