The Word of God is vital to our spiritual life. Just as our physical man (our body) needs nourishment to sustain it and keep it vibrant and alive, so our spirit man needs nourishment also. The food that sustains the physical man is physical in nature. The food that sustain the spirit man is spirtual in nature. God's Word is spirit and it is life to us (John 6:63). The eternal part of our nature requires eternal food. Just as the spirit of man is eternal, so the Word of God is eternal....It lives abide forever (1 Peter 1:23).
Make a habit of feeding on the Word of God on a daily basis. Just as you take time to make sure your outer man (body) is properly fed and nourished, take the time to feed your inner man (spirit) on the Word of God.
