In the last two days, we have established that what you put in your belly I must not be your preoccupation. In fact, Philippians 3:19 says that whoever does whatever his belly dictates to him will end up in destruction. “Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.”
The question then arises what should we be feeding on regularly? 1 Peter 2:2 says that: As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: Your appetite for the word of God must be insatiable, just like a babys appetite for milk. You should be hungrier for Gods word than you are for regular food. The word of God should be a major part of our diet because he that is only alive in the flesh and dead in the spirit is as good as dead altogether.
“It is the spirit that giveth life the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. John 6:63” The word of God is spirit and life.
It is the real food that will keep you alive; feed on it daily! When I was a younger Christian, my friends and I ensured that before we ate any physical food, we would first study the word of God. That is one of the major contributors to my growth spiritually. If you make the word of God your earnest desire, even you will be surprised at your spiritual growth. You will suddenly discover that you are beginning to think like Christ.
Which do you eat more – the word of God or physical food? Your desire must be for the word of God daily. One thing about the word is that it can never be exhausted.
That is one well that never runs dry! You can get a revelation from reading a passage today, then read it again tomorrow and the Holy Spirit teaches you something different from it. Make the word of God your daily meal.
