Feed on His word

“ Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God”
Matthew 4: 4

Besides satisfying our physical hunger, we also need to satisfy our spiritual hunger. To do this, we need to read the Bible, spend time with God and let him fill our lives. In Matthew 4, it talks about how Jesus was tempted by the devil. But because He has fed himself with the word of God, He is able to use it to counter the temptations of the devil. Ephesians 6:17 says that the Word of God is the sword of the Spirit.

It is important for us to not only know the Word of God but also obey it. We need His word and His promises for us to stand strong when we are faced with temptations. In Ephesians 6:11, it says “Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil”.

Do not be complacent with your walk with God. We have to keep pressing on for more of God. We often run to God only when trouble comes, but take the times when everything is going well to feed yourself with His word so that when difficult times come you already have a strong foundation that you can stand on.
