"My yo-yo
diet"
This diet is not your typical
diet. In fact, it’s more so about being
sluggish in eating and properly ingesting the word of God. Eating when it’s
convenient opposed to understanding the necessity in being fed consistently.
Picking up the bible when you need a word of comfort, when you are trying to
argue a point or when you need to be encouraged or even worse, to try to give
someone else a word as if you always read and study. We cannot afford to be
vegans, vegetarians, coniferous (carnivores), or selective. We must have well-rounded
diets which consist of knowing and studying the word regularly. This is the
only way we grow from feeding and relying solely on milk to growing from the
meat, gaining sustenance.
We cannot expect Pastors and
preachers to do all the work! This is one diet we cannot afford to skimp on. No
yo-yo dieting with the word of God. Be consistent and watch your attitudes,
behaviors and life become stable. Be unswerving in your study and absorption of
the word of God and watch the word work in your life. You'll find that you are
experiencing abundant peace, joy, good health, becoming prosperous, able to
forgive more easily, capable of serving with a smile even when judged or
persecuted, you'll see your temperament change.
It takes just as much patience
and time in study as it does faith to establish good eating habits. So be
steadfast and watch your weight stabilize while your burdens decrease, becoming
lighter!
SCRIPTURES:
Matthew 4:4 – MAN SHALL NOT
LIVE BY BREAD ALONE, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God
Ezekiel
3:1-3 – Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that thou findest; eat this
roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel.2
So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that roll.3
And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels
with this roll that I give thee. Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as
honey for sweetness.
PRAYER:
Lord, help me to trust you at
your word enough to study your word daily, that I may grow healthy and strong
having my spirit fortified in you. I love you for reminding me that your word
is the very nutrients necessary for my life. Thank you for feeding me
consistently. Now Lord, help me to
absorb what's necessary and to rid myself of the waste. Cleanse me O'Lord. I do
humbly pray, In Jesus Name, Amen
