7-8-13 Daily Devotions “Feed Yourself” (S) 13 Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. 14 But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil. (O) Those who eat solid food are mature in their walk with the Lord. They are expected to know right from wrong. They are expected to understand how to function in righteousness. Those who are infants in their walk are still in the learning stage and still have trouble understanding right from wrong. (A)When we talk about Christians who eat solid food, it isn’t about how long a person has been a believer. Eating solid food is about the knowledge and understanding of the Word of God. A believer can be saved for many years, but still may be drinking milk. That’s why it is essential that we as believers feed ourselves the Word of God, so that we can be mature in the Word, being able to distinguish right from wrong. We need to spend time in his word daily by doing our daily devotions and memorizing scripture. So that the Word of God will be forever in our mind, hearts, and soul. “8 Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.” (Joshua 1:8) (P) Father God, thank you for giving us your divine Word. Help me Father to write your word across my heart, so that it will manifest itself in my behavior. Father god I love you and your Word. Thank you for your Son’s blood and his body that has given me life eternal and abundance. Amen.
