THE ULTIMATE MEAL

 The heart of abiding faith "leans into God,” anticipating His voice, looking for His next move. Like Jesus, we are to be able to say, "My food is to do the will of Him who sent me’ (John 4:34 NASB). I am strengthened in hearing God speak. I am nourished through my own obedience to His voice. The situations of life take on meaning and purpose because of the abiding faith to follow Jesus. Hearing from God is the essential element of the Christian life, for "man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God”’ (Matt. 4:4). His voice is our life.

There are many tables to eat at in life:
1-There is the table of public opinion. The food is sweet, but it sours in the stomach.
2-There is the table of personal achievement. That’s a power meal for sure, yet the crash is as rapid as the ascent.
3-There’s only one table with rich food that settles well and brings supernatural strength; it’s the table of God’s will.
