eat this book and share it



What we consume says a lot about us.  What we consume in every area of life says a lot about us.  It is time to ingest and begin to digest the word God has blessed us with.

Let’s take a look at the Bible and what God has for us…

Ezekiel 3:1-4  NLT
The voice said to me, “Son of man, eat what I am giving you—eat this scroll! Then go and give its message to the people of Israel.” 2 So I opened my mouth, and he fed me the scroll. 3 “Fill your stomach with this,” he said. And when I ate it, it tasted as sweet as honey in my mouth. 4 Then he said, “Son of man, go to the people of Israel and give them my messages. 

These verses might be from a new portion of the Bible, but they are not new.  The concepts are things we have talked about and talk about often.  We know we are called to life by faith.  We are to live out our faith.  Are we?

The story here is between God and the prophet Ezekiel.  God told him to eat the book, take it in and let it become real to you.  After it becomes part of the man, Ezekiel, he was to go to share this news with others.

God cares about people.  He even cares for those who run from Him or simply avoid what God says.  That is why God led this prophet as well as you and me to tell others about our experience with God.

Because God changed us He will change others.  It is time to be satisfied with the good things God gives.

John 4:34  NASB
Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to accomplish His work.

Psalm 42:1  NASB
As the deer pants for the water brooks, So my soul pants for You, O God.
