And he humbled you and let you hunger and fed you with manna, which you did not know, nor did your fathers know, that he might make you know that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD.--Deuteronomy 8:3
I have not departed from the commandment of his lips;I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my portion of food.--Job 23:12
"Behold, the days are coming," declares the Lord GOD,"when I will send a famine on the land—not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD.--Amos 8:11
But he answered, "It is written, "'Man shall not live by bread alone,but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.'"--Matthew 4:4 (all ESV)

Over the last few weeks, God has been convicting me that I don't treat His Word as a necessary part of my life, but as an optional accessory. His Word should be my spiritual food, and it is absolutely necessary for my survival. So, the plan I have developed recently is to treat the Bible like I treat my food: three solid meals a day with snacks in between. What do you think? How do we have God's attitude toward the Word in our heart?

So good! Taste and see that God is good to us! Our God is good! I love that "So, the plan I have developed recently is to treat the Bible like I treat my food: three solid meals a day with snacks in between." Yes, 'snacks' in between! Not just the morning, not just night, at all times! He gave his life, and continues to give blessings on blessings. What is a little time with the Lord each day?
Our God is good!
