Online Bible Study What is Vital

Checking Our Spiritual Vitals – Lesson 2

Food For My Soul

Hunger can often make us feel shaky and out of focus. Our body cries out for nourishment letting us know it’s time to eat. In the same way, we can get spiritually shaky and out of focus when we don’t feed on God’s Word.

If we compare the natural process of eating to spiritual nourishment, it gives us a clearer picture of how vital God’s Word is to us.

Just as we taste our food, the Bible encourages us to taste and see that the Lord is good.

Just as we chew our meat, the Bible says to meditate (chew) on His Word day and night.

Just as we swallow each forkful, God wants us to apply (swallow) spiritual truths into our minds.

Just as our body digests our food, digesting God’s Word will judge the thoughts and attitudes of our heart.

Just as we find nourishment from the food we eat, we are transformed (nourished) by His daily bread.
