Rhapsody of Realities 3 June 2026: Continually Nourished By the Word

SCRIPTURE: Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God (Matthew 22:29).

The Lord Jesus made a striking statement when He said, “You err because you know not the Scriptures.” This shows that ignorance of God’s Word inevitably leads to error. When the Word of God is absent from a person’s life, confusion and misdirection become inevitable.

The knowledge of the Scriptures keeps you aligned with God’s truth and preserves you from deception. That’s why studying and meditating on the Word should be a daily and constant experience in your life. The Word of God can be likened to the Manna that God fed the children of Israel with in the wilderness. He instructed them not to store it for the next day.

Each day’s provision had to be gathered afresh. When the Lord Jesus later declared in John 6:35, “…I am the bread of life…,” He revealed the deeper meaning of that experience. He’s the true bread from heaven, the living Word that nourishes the human spirit. The Word of God is God’s food for your spirit, and you need it every day.

The Lord instructed in Joshua 1:8, “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night….” Meditation on the Word is essential for a victorious Christian life. You can’t depend merely on your past experiences with the Word. Your spiritual strength is sustained through continual fellowship with the Word.

When a Christian neglects personal study of the Word, or is inconsistent in church or in the environment where the Word is taught, he or she becomes vulnerable. But when you remain consistently nourished by God’s Word and strengthened through fellowship with those who share the same faith, you stay spiritually alert, fortified and resistant to the stratagems of the adversary.

Therefore, make sure you’re grounded in a spiritual family, a home church, where the Word of God is continually taught and lived. Stay in fellowship with other Christians, and meditate regularly on the Word. Your spirit will be nourished and strengthened continually, and you’ll grow from grace to grace, faith to faith, and from glory to glory. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the nourishment of your Word, which strengthens my spirit daily. I delight in your Word and meditate on it continually; it guides me in wisdom, strengthens my faith and keeps me victorious over every work of darkness. I walk in the light and power of your truth today and always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
