So He humbled you, allowed you to hunger, and fed you with manna which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you know that man shall not live by bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord. … But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ” … But Jesus answered him, saying, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.’ ”
Dear Ones: Eat the Word! In my time of private meditation, I was speaking the Word of God and writing it on the tablet of my soul and inner core of my flesh. Psalm 45:1 reveals that the tongue is the pen of a ready writer. The pen of the tongue is the way to write the Word on the scrolls of the soul and into the very molecular level of the cells of your body.
As I pressed into this activity, I spoke to my flesh confessing my freewill choice of Christ, the Word made Flesh, as Ruler of my spirit, soul, and body. Therefore, my flesh must conform to the truth of the Word and not to lying symptoms or stimulus of this fallen world. I then heard the Spirit say:
Your body is to feed on the Word of God like you feed on bread. Take it into your flesh as you would digest natural food. It will nourish your flesh even as it nourishes your soul. Command your flesh to dine on the Words of Life that your tongue speaks. Your blood levels, organs, bone and marrow will respond to this infusion of power. It is a Resurrection Life infusion that will align your flesh with your spirit and soul on a higher level than you have experienced before. It is a good day to dine at HIS table. Shalom.
