How do we know Christ is our provision?

Answered in 1 source

Christ is the ultimate provision of God, as represented by the Table of Showbread in the tabernacle.

The Table of Showbread not only signifies God's provision for the Israelites through physical sustenance but also points forward to the spiritual nourishment found in Christ. Jesus Himself declares in John 6:35, 'I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst.' This parallel illustrates how the bread on the table symbolizes the life-giving sustenance provided through his sacrifice. Moreover, as believers partake in fellowship with God, we find our spiritual nourishment and sustenance in Christ, who fully satisfies the deepest needs of our souls. Thus, the Table of Showbread ultimately emphasizes Christ as that sufficient provision from God.
