You’re What You Eat – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional September 5th

(Feed On God’s Word Through Study And Meditation)

TO THE BIBLE: John 6:63 RSV
“It is the spirit that gives life, the flesh is of no avail; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.”

LET’S TALK
Ella didn’t understand that her food habits had a significant impact on her body. She had been secretly binging on certain meals and then purging them to prevent weight gain in an unhealthy manner.

In the long run, these practices had negative effects on her body. However, when she eventually made a positive change by eating properly and incorporating a variety of foods into her diet, she experienced improvements in her overall health and well-being.

You’ve probably heard the saying, “You are what you eat,” and it holds true because the food you consume becomes a part of your body.

Anything that doesn’t become a part of your body is eliminated as waste, while what becomes one with your body remains inside.

This principle also applies spiritually: when you receive and digest the Word, it enters your spirit.

Through meditation, you allow it to flow from your spirit to your mind. From your mind, it permeates your body and begins to operate within you. It becomes one with your flesh, and you become one inseparable entity. This is important because the Word of God is where the life of God is.

Remember the parable of the sower who went forth to sow his seed? Jesus said, “…The seed is the word of God” (Luke 8:11).

What’s a seed? A seed is the life-giving principle of anything. This means the Word of God is the life-carrying principle of God; the Word is the seed of God. When the angel spoke to Mary and she believed, she received the Word from the angel, and that Word became Jesus.

When you receive the Word into you, it produces in you what it talks about. What does that mean?

Remember, the Bible says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1). The Word became flesh and lived among us. Jesus Christ was the living Word, the Word in flesh.

Now, we have the written Word. When you meditate on the written Word, it gets into you as the Word, and lives in you as God. Hallelujah! This is why we’re indestructible. We live and abide forever because the Word in you lives and abides forever (1 Peter 1:23).

Pray:
Dear Father, thank you for your Word that’s at home in me. Your Word produces in me what it talks about; therefore, I live a life of victory, success, prosperity and divine health always. Your Word is faithful and true, and I’ve given myself wholly to it, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
