So I opened my mouth and he fed me the scroll. “Fill your stomach with this,” he said. And when I ate it, it tasted as sweet as honey in my mouth. –Ezekiel 3:2 (NLT)
FEED ON GOD’S WORD
A poem and essay by ILMA
What do you feed your mouth and body?
Do you consume what makes you healthy?
If you feed on garbage, it will make you sick
God’s word is as sweet as honey in your lips.
Come to the throne and feed on God’s truth
It will deepen your relationships and bring fruit
Fill your whole being with his word
It will equip you to overcome this world.

We are bombarded with all kinds of food in boxes these days. Most people are always in and are enticed to take convenient fast foods. No wonder we have a rise of all kinds of terminal illnesses and diseases. Because of unhealthy choices and lifestyle, we are practically digging our own graves.
Do you remember what Adam and Eve ate in the Garden of Eden? They were feeding on plants and fruits in that garden. They had a healthy and ideal life. Even our early primitive people fed on grains and starches and lived healthy lives.
The bible encourages us to feed on the Scriptures. It says that it tastes like honey in the mouth when we say it. It nourishes our spirits.
PRAYER
Lord, help me to consume only your word.
REFLECTION
What filthy things have you been feeding your soul with?
