John 6:63 (KJV)
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
I once saw the headline of an article that read, “YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT." It is true that what you eat affects your body. Good or bad, your body responds one way or the other. So it is with your spirit. When you consume the Word, it becomes one with your spirit and gets to work as and where needed.
The scripture talks about words that are spirit, words that give life. The opposite of this is also true. There are negative words that are also spirit but they don’t give life. Just like not all food is good for your body, not all words are good for your spirit. Strive to study and meditate on the Word of God more than ever this year. Put down the novel or the newspaper and prioritise the life-giving Word. Let it be your daily bread. Tell yourself I will not consume food if I haven’t consumed the Word or prayed. As it gets into you as the Word, it then lives in you as God. Hallelujah!
