Food
Everyday we feel a deep feeling in our stomachs, giving us information
It can be a groan or a pain letting you know that you need to replenish
As your body is hungry and feeling weak because its low on energy
Making you feel weak and if prolonged for too long you could even fall sick
Other people die everyday because they can not get what they need
For their bodies to function properly and provide nutrients to help fight disease
But others take it for granted, wasting it just as they please
Others going to the extent of starving themselves to get and keep a body that is slim
But at the end of the day we need to eat, as food is necessary for our bodies
But I tell you now that your spirit and soul need to eat too, and daily
Some of which are starving and slowly withering away and dying
In need of just some oxygen screaming to you trying to get your attention
The devil is slick and he knows this too, that the soul has needs for food
But he fills our days with thoughts of the world, making us forget our souls
Only thinking of the needs of our flesh, which is only but a temporary cause
As our bodies decay but our spirits will never die but will reap from our works
Our works here on this earth and on the day the Lord comes back will determine
Where our spirits shall rest till the end of time in fact for all eternity
Hence we should stop wasting time and rebuild and nourish our spirits
Before it is too late, as we are to be prepared, for it can be at any time or day
The food I am talking about is the word of our Almighty Lord
He breathed life into it so we know that it is life and possesses all
We should be like Joshua and lament on the word every day and night
As it is food for our spirits and helps them to grow and edify
It is through reading the word of God, that you are able to defeat the devil
Rebuke him and stand strong in the mighty name of Jesus!!!!!
That you can talk to the Lord and remind Him of His promises
It gives you true life and meaning here on this earth, it truly is our spirits daily bread!!
The bible is a love poem anointed and orchestrated by our God
His way of getting us to know Him, as well as to find and know our selves in Him also
It equips us with the necessary weapons we need to use in our fight against all evil
It gives us direction and tells us what God requires of us in all our circumstances
Gods love and power are reflected from the beginning to the end of it
And it tells us the price which Jesus paid for us, which gives us redemption
It gives us hope and authority no matter what the obstacles in our path is
Giving us understanding and wisdom that comes from the Holy King
So we need to read the word of God in all its entirety
Everyday just the same way in which your body needs to eat
The Lord may speak to you through it, rebuke you or met your need
But without the word of God in us our souls will meet defeat
So listen to your spirit that is crying, trying to hold your hand and tell you that it is dying
That the only way is to feed it with the bread of life which will surely revive it
Saving you from both your body and your soul simultaneously burning
In the pit, a death trap that is looming, but with the essential food can entirely be avoided
