1 Peter 2:2. like newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may grow in respect to salvation.
When God speaks, it is much different than when you and I speak. When we speak, we describe or defend our perceptions of reality. When God speaks, he speaks reality into being. Our words describe life and action. God’s word is living and active Heb. 4:12.
John Bloom from John Piper ministries puts it more clearly this way, “God has given human beings one source of true soul food: his Son. Jesus Christ, the Word of God, God the Son, is the great Promise, for “all the promises of God find their Yes in him” He is the soul’s bread, and “whoever feeds on this bread will live forever” Jn 6:58.
John 6:51“I am the living bread that came down out of heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread also which I will give for the life of the world is My flesh.”
Inspirational Nugget = His word is food for our life, and the living word creates a healthy lifestyle.
