TOPIC: EAT THE WORD
Bible Text: Jeremiah 15:16 KJV
Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.
Another translation of the above scripture says- when your words came I ate them they were my joy and my hearts delight for I bear your name Lord God almighty.
As food is to hungry person that is what the word of God is for us. We need to treasure them up in our memory, digested them in our mind and carefully retain them in our hearts. The word of God is food to our soul it nourishes us spiritually and strengthen us so that we don’t go astray in time of distress we will stand firm and can pray to God and get our prayer answered and rejoice in our heart.
Roman 12 v 2
It is written : And be not conformed to this world but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God for everyone of us
2 Corinthian 8 v 5
And this they do not as we hoped but first gave their ownselves to the the Lord and unto us by the will of God.
So let us ask God as we receive the spirit to always commit ourselves to the will of God. We receive the fire of God to give ourself totally unto the things of God.
Beloved, as you wake up in the morning and you have your breakfast- so also you ought to eat the word of God to strengthen your spirit man and to keep you on fire for God.
Never neglect the word. There is power and strength in the word.
Prayer:
Lord, anything in our life that is conforming to this present evil in the world be gone & be destroyed by the fire of the holy spirit in Jesus Name. Let the word of God we eat daily wash and cleanse us always and renew our mind by faith in Jesus Name. Amen. Help us Lord to abide by the will of God for our life in Jesus name. Amen.
