Topic: Your Intake – Key To Your Welfare [Thursday May 10, 2018]
Scripture: But he answered and said, it is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Matthew 4:4
Thought For The Day: What you feed on determines how you fare in life.
In life, I have discovered that what a person feeds on determines how he/she fares. For example, if two children are placed on different diets for a period of time; one may be on a balanced diet while the other child is on an imbalanced diet. As the two children grow, it would be obvious that the child who feeds on balanced diet would fare better; he would be plump in stature, have a well-developed brain and appear very attractive. On the other hand, the child on an imbalanced diet would be malnourished and suffer retarded growth and kwashiorkor. This is because the quality of what they ate affected their health, growth and development.
Beloved, this is how it is in the spirit; your intake determines your welfare. What you feed on determines how you fare in life.
There are people who would not feed on God’s Word, listen to Christian messages on tapes or any spiritual material to enhance their spirit and soul for a whole week, or even more, but can never forget to eat physical food. As a result, they suffer from spiritual malnutrition or kwashiorkor and consequently, they cannot resist infections and afflictions from the devil. This is disastrous!
My counsel is, if you want your destiny to be solid, you must nourish your spirit and soul with God’s Word.
Remember this: What you feed on determines how you fare in life.
Assignments:
1. Feed on God’s Word on a daily basis by reading the Bible and listening to preached messages.
2. Visit a bookshop and pick up quality Christian materials to work on.
Prayer: O Lord, I ask for the grace to feed on Your Word always. Help me not to neglect the spiritual intake so I can fare well in the Spirit, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
