Daily Food
Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'”
Matthew 4:4 New International Version
THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Where do you get your daily food?
Sometimes we get so diverted by the mundane things of life, by the lust for the things of this world, by the natural hunger of our bellies, by the striving to earn more money, that we forget the things of God. God’s Word, His written Word, the Bible, His demonstrated Word in and through Jesus, and His proclaimed Word in the Gospels. His Word confirmed in our spirit by the Holy Spirit, is what will sustain us for eternity. His Words are the food that our spirit man craves. They are the ‘Manna’ of life to our spirit. The natural things, that we so badly want, will one day all pass away and there will no longer be a hunger for them, but the things of God that we have gained in our spirit will last forever. Make sure that you are feeding your spirit man daily with the food from God, His Word!
MY PRAYER…
True and Faithful Father, through Your Holy Spirit create in me a hunger for Your Word that is much more demanding of life than my hunger for natural food. I confess that at times I have been distracted by the everyday things of life and have not sought Your Word and have not nourished my spirit man within like I should have. Please forgive me as I pledge myself to be more attentive to Your leading and Your truth through Your Word. Create in me, Lord, an unquenchable desire for the things of You, for Your word, Your presence, Your plan for me, and for Your will to be done in my life. Through Jesus I pray.
Amen
Why is it that no one, not even Christians want to help monetarily with a Christian work, They think ALL Christian work just does itself. That Christians should be poor and be happy about it. But if it was for sports or some other earthly work they would be more than glad to help probably give pretty good in fact.
