"They all ate the same spiritual food and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ."
(1 Corinthians 10:3, 4--NIV)
This is a glorious picture of what the Godhead intended for humanity, "before the beginning began."
Strong's says that the Greek Word for, "follow," means, "to follow one who precedes, join him as his attendant, accompany him." What a wonderful picture of intimacy. Yes, the Good News is, "Christ in us," but the Bible is full of such language as in our text to show us that our Father, Son Jesus, and Holy Spirit literally have us covered and provided for.
Enjoy these, "God-Breathed," Words today, that our King and Savior Jesus Christ is our, "Drink," and our, "Rock" the One Who "precedes, joins, and accompanies" us in this sojourn.
Father, in Jesus' Name, thank You so much for our beautiful text. Amen.
