FEED ON SOLID FOOD

"For everyone who lives on milk is [doctrinally inexperienced and] unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a spiritual infant. But solid food is for the [spiritually] mature, whose senses are trained by practice to distinguish between what is morally good and what is evil" Hebrews 5:13-14 [AMP].

The expectation of God about you is that you grow up to maturity. When He made man, He made him mature and not a baby. That's why He sat there until man was a being and was able to take on assignments. After that God saw all He had made was very good and He rested (see Genesis 1:26-31). Man was ready for the responsibilities and to feed on solid things.

To feed on solid food in this context is to take in what ideally might not be easy or plantable to you yet important for your being. In this case the Hebrew writer was referring to the real truth, hard truth in the Word of God. God wants us to grow in Him, Who's Spirit. And this is only possible through eating solid food of His Word.

Reading, studying and listening to the Word of God is vital to walking in the spirit. Fellowship with God through His Word opens the door to your heart so the fruit of the spirit can flow out of it (read Galatians 5:22-23).

The Word of God is food indeed. It is spiritual food for your spirit and being. The more of it you put in your heart, the stronger your spirit becomes. If you’ll continue to feed on the Word, eventually your spirit will be so dominant that it can overcome your flesh every time (see Hebrews 5:14).

Feed on the solid Truth of the Word of God beyond just excitement and see prosperity of your soul and flourishing of your being in name of Jesus Christ.
*AMEN*

*PRAYER*
I will continue to feed on the solid food of the Word God for my maturity in the Spirit that I do not fulfill the lust of the flesh in Jesus Christ name. *AMEN*

THE MEASURE OF CHRIST'S GIFT

"But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift" Ephesians 4:7 [NKJV].

The scripture says to each one of us was given. Not being given or shall be given but already given. In other words, the ability, enablement of God was already given to receive, operate, use, manifest what Jesus Christ has already made available freely as a gift. The grace, read anointing of God is already made available for you for the operation of Christ's gift.

Now you got to probe which measure of Christ's gift is accessible to you! For we know that Christ has given gifts to men (see Ephesians 4:8). Verse 11 of Ephesians chapter four endeavors to list a few of these gifts such as apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers. Again Apostle Paul details more in 1Corinthians 12:8-11 & 28 such as the word of wisdom, the word of knowledge, faith, gifts of healings, the working of miracles, gift of prophecy, discerning of spirits, helps, administrations, different kinds of tongues.and the interpretation of tongues.

I believe the bible didn't list all the gifts from the measure of Christ there is. I believe there are still gift available for those that believe. Apostle Paul said that he can all things through Christ who gives him strength (read Philippians 4:13). Strength here is the same as ability in other translations. So in Christ Jesus there's a measure of possibilities. And God has anointed you to walk in this possibilities. What you are able to imagine, you can do by His ability - read anointing.

What Jesus Christ did while He was here on earth in human form, you too can do it and even more. You have the power of God, His anointing to do more than your ability and experience. Believe, step out and do to flourish in this your season in name of Jesus Christ.
*AMEN*

*PRAYER*
God has given me grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ, theAnointed One and His Anointing is in me to flourish in Jesus Christ name. *AMEN*

LIE IN GREEN PASTURES

"He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters" Psalms 23:2 [NKJV].

In the context of this devotion, pasture is means a place of nourishment, food and feeding. You will note that God only made man after He had created the garden and the rest of the world from which man would get his nourishment from (Genesis 1 & 2). God made man to lie in the pasture.

To lie in the pasture is to be found in a place of nourishment. The green pasture in this context is the Word that feeds your spirit, soul and body. It's the wholeness of your being that comes from God. Your flourishing therefore depends upon which place you're planted. Like any tree, it's growth depends on which ground/soil/nutrients in which it's planted. Those led by God will be made to lie in green pastures and not just any pasture. Yeah, not all pasture is good for consumption.

It's also possible that some can choose to refuse to feed on the green pasture and become malnourished and or run from green pastures the LORD causes them to lie in. When you're led by the Spirit of God, you will always be placed in green pastures where you will not lack spiritual food that's good for your growth. Yes most healthy foods are never sweet to your taste. Most nutritious foods even taste mild or biter. The Word of God that is good for you will be like a double edged sword. Allow it cut, shape and mould you to the very likeness of Our LORD Jesus Christin the name of Jesus Christ.
*AMEN*

*PRAYER*
The LORD God Almighty makes me to lie down in green pastures and He leads me beside the still waters that am well supplied and nourished in Christ Jesus name.
*AMEN*
