As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word,
that ye may grow thereby: -- 1 Peter 2 verse 2 (Kings James Bible)
Having a constant thirst for the Word of God is vital for
spiritual health and well-being. What milk is to a
newborn is what His Word must be to every child of
God. Regardless of age, the Word is a crucial element
of a Believer’s life for which there is no substitute in
order to grow, develop and mature in the Lord. It is so
timeless; that reading the bible from cover to cover is
never enough, for the Word of God lives forever and
our life is still a work in progress.
We are never to stop growing in Christ, for there will
always be new obstacles along the way to challenge our
faith. Maintaining a healthy diet to consume His Word
helps to keep us properly balanced and prepared for
whatever is on the way.
In the natural realm, basic nutrition is a daily necessity
for life and living, energy and strength. How much more
is the Word of God?
May God’s Word fill and strengthen your spirit each day.
Word of the Day ... Desire

For further study and inspiration:
Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by
the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
- Colossians 1 verses 10 & 11
10. That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being
fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of
God;
11. Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power,
unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
