Word Starvation

Compliment of the season 🎄🎄🎄

The year is coming to an end and there are probably things yet to be done, I understand this and there can be so much pressure.

You may not be able to change the past but you can make the future what you want. 

I will be sharing a little Biochemistry today 😁, let me give you access to an amazing truth the Holy Spirit taught me through Biochemistry. Enjoy

Biochemistry is a very interesting discipline, I didn't understand anything about it until I gained admission into the university. The process of starvation is one subject I really enjoyed.

During starvation, the body is not receiving any form of energy from food because there is no eating or drinking. To make energy available the body uses the stored glucose (glycogen) when this is exhausted, it uses the stored fat before it moves to the stored protein and when there is no means of getting energy from the body the person eventually dies.

This is what happens when we stop taking in God's word, we depend solely on the stored revelation which is not enough to carry us through life. The revelation you get today isn't enough for a week just like the food you eat today can't sustain you adequately for a week. 

Mattew 4:4 But He replied, It has been written, Man shall not live and be upheld and sustained by bread alone, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of God.

Just as the flesh cannot live without food so can the spirit not live without God's word which is food for the spirit.

1Peter 2:2 Like newborn babies you should crave (thirst for, earnestly desire) the pure (unadulterated) spiritual milk, that by it you may be nurtured and grow unto [completed] salvation,

The Bible emphasis on the importance of spiritual feeding, we know how difficult it is for babies to stay away from milk because of its importance (filling them up and helping them grow) this is why the Bible encourages us to crave God's word because we can't grow spiritually without God's word and we know that anything that isn't growing starts dying.

Eating just once can't sufficiently carry you through a week or a month, you need to feed continually to be alive and healthy and this applies to the spiritual too.
