Thought For Today: “Our Daily Nourishment”

We must daily partake of God’s word if we ever desire to grow in our Christian walk and life.

The Bible contains everything we need to grow into the spiritual men and women God has called us to be. Further, the Bible contains what is necessary for maintaining spiritual life. Jesus explained as much at Satan’s first temptation.

“It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’” (Matthew 4:4)

The daily nourishment found in God’s word maintains our spiritual life. God’s word is as essential to our spiritual life as physical food is to our physical life. To neglect regular reading of the Bible is as detrimental to the health of our souls and spirits as the neglect of physical food is to our bodies.
