I don’t think so. Rather, Jesus was referring to spiritual food, feeding our spirits with the Word of God. Jesus prayed that God would give it to us, but it’s up to us to take it in and eat.

I don’t know about you, but I don’t enjoy skipping meals. I hate to fast and don’t particularly enjoy dieting either. My body likes food. But I must realize that the same is true of my spiritual man. It likes food. When we starve our spirits of the Word of God, we are denying it the very nourishment that will give us focus and energy, strength and help.

In the next few months, we are going to focus our Sunday morning sermons on the word of God. We are going to give an overview of the Bible and then study a specific book. We live in a time where Bible illiteracy is the norm, even in the church. Let’s change that! But truthfully, you will never really learn the Bible unless you read it and study on your own. Feed your spirit and your soul everyday by reading the Bible. “They Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.” Psalm 119:105
