Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for August 22, 2026

In this Daily Devotion for August 22, 2026, Pastor David Balla walks through Psalm 78:22-24, where God rains down manna even on people who did not trust Him, bread from heaven they never earned, falling freely morning after morning without their asking.This devotion follows that manna straight to Jesus, who told the crowds that the true bread from heaven was not what their fathers ate in the wilderness. He Himself is the bread of life, come down to give life to the world. That connection reaches into the Lord's Supper, where Jesus gives you His own true body with the bread, for the forgiveness of your sins. The manna fed the body for a day and had to fall again. What Jesus gives feeds you for eternity. There we find true grace, forgiveness, and salvation, freely given through His finished work. Through His redemption we are welcomed into the Kingdom of Heaven, receiving His true body and blood again and again, exactly as He promised.Come to that table remembering this psalm. God once opened the doors of heaven for people who did not even trust Him. He still opens that same generous hand today, giving you Himself in the bread and the wine.Subscribe for weekly sermons and Daily Devotions.If this devotion has blessed you, consider supporting this ministry: https://buymeacoffee.com/whitegandalphYou can also give directly at https://buymeacoffee.com/whitegandalphHashtags (5)#DailyDevotion #Lutheran #LCMS #BibleStudy #Christianity
