TOPIC: THE NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF THE BIBLE
TEXT: Hebrews 5:12-14
KEY VERSE: Luke 4:4 And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

Food is essential for the body in order to achieve healthy growth. The body naturally craves for food at one time or the other to satisfy this need. After Jesus fasted 40 days and 40 nights the Bible says, “He was afterward an hungred.” Even though food is essential to the body, it has limited value because the flesh itself is subject to decay no matter how well you take care of it. Food for the stomach, stomach for food, both of them will perish. For this reason, your emphasis should not be on food that nourishes for a while and soon pass out as waste, but on the kind of food that nourishes to eternal life and has no waste material in it, which is the Word of God (the Bible). Food in spiritual sense is used as metaphor to describe the bible’s nutritional value. To Peter, its pure milk. 1 Peter 2:2, “As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby.” For Job, he treasured God’s word more than his daily bread. Job 23:12, “Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” To the Psalmist it is sweeter than honey. Psalm 19:10, “More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.”

Spiritual growth is not attainable without the rich nourishment of the Word of God. This truth is emphasized in our reading text for today (Hebrews 5:12-14). As physical food passes through a digestive process before it becomes useful to nourish the body so does the Word of God need to pass through spiritual digestive process of reading, meditating, memorizing and applying its truth to nourish your soul unto eternal life. Joshua 1:8, “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.”

Thought for the day: Living by the word of God is the pathway to a successful life.
Song for the day: Something more than gold … the word of God in the life of man
Bible reading for the day:
1 Kings 1-2; Luke 22:54-71

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
