Spiritual Food

Consistent Bible reading and prayer are very important for each individual believers. Each one should discipline himself or herself to maintain the consistency of their devotion to the Lord. This is to maintain our healthy relationship with God. Each Christian should read, study, and meditate on the Bible seriously and heartily not randomly because it is our spiritual food. Consistent and proper food intake will nourish our bodies so also when we consistently read our Bible and communicate with the Lord, our spiritual aspect belongs to those who have healthy spiritually living. When a church is doing every activity inline with what the Bible says the Lord will be pleased and there will be more blessings. If the church does have consistent communication and healthy relationship with the Lord, they will have healthy spiritual lives also. That healthy spiritual life will bear fruit in a good relationship with each other inside and outside the church. This is the great impact if we piously devout ourselves in reading the Bible coupled at the same time coupled with proper application and consistent prayer life. However, more than this, if are doing things perfectly and it seems like we are limiting the power of the grace of God this would appear to be wrong. We appear like those self-righteous people who are more concerned about their performance not focusing on God anymore. Christians should always remember that good works cannot save them but it is the grace of God that by which we are saved. We are commanded to do or very best but not to the extent that we aim to do things perfectly but not anymore focusing on the Lord.
