🔸️ Without meditating Scripture, no growth of Divinity! 🔸

When a child is born in this world, food and air are very important for that child. Similarly, there is the experience of a spiritual birth. A newborn child of God must eat and breathe. For that child, the Word of God becomes food and prayer turns to breath of life!

The Word of God – our spiritual food.

To begin with, milk food is essential for a child’s growth. But as the baby grows, solid food is needed. “The basic doctrines of Christ” is the milk food (Heb. 6:1). But, “The word of righteousness” (Heb. 5:13) is the solid food. How fast we can start to consume solid food depends upon the period of time at which we obey to the light that God gives us.

Our spiritual growth depends on Faith and Obedience. God has promised us through His Word that we must trust and depend on Him only. In the same way, God has given us commandments in His Word, for us to obey. If we regularly meditating the Word of God, believing and depending on Him and obeying Him, we can see in ourselves that we are deeply rooted in God and are like a tree planted beside the flowing streams of water that bears its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither; this Good God will bless us to prosper whatever we do! (Psalm 1: 2, 3).

Prayer:
Heavenly Father! Without food, there is no physical growth …. We have realized that we cannot grow in spiritual life without meditating Your Scripture! Give Your grace to meditate “Your Word” in our daily life! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
