The Word of God is Spiritual Food

Spiritual food copy

“Like newborn infants, long for the pure, spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow into salvation, if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.” 1 Peter 2:2,3 

If you want to grow as a Christian, feed on God’s Word just as a newborn baby desires to be fed. It’s not just a quick reading of the Word that you need. You need to meditate on God’s Word to get all that you should from it. The food we take into our physical bodies does not nourish us unless we properly digest and assimilate it into our cells. Spiritual food is the same.

The Word you read has to “become flesh” in you. It has to become part of you. As it nourishes you, it will change you by changing the way you see yourself and the way you see others. We need more than physical food to enjoy life as God intended. God’s Word is our spiritual food, which will enrich our life, produce faith in our hearts and renew our minds.

  1. Amen, thank you bishop for sharing with us.

    this is exactly what our pastor here told me yesterday, because most of us make this mistake of thinking that as long as I read the blogs of the church and I didn’t read my bible it fine but that is not the case. THE WORD OF GOD INDEED IS OUR SPIRITUAL FOOD.
