Solid Food – your Lion Bites word for today

The time for bread and milk is at an end. The time for soft morsels that slide down easily with no effort is over. I have solid food for you. I have the rich meat of my Word for you to chew on. Get your teeth into my Word. As you dig deep into my words, I will renew your strength. I will give you fresh muscle for the season, strength to stand, and the ability to run and not grow weary. I am the Word made flesh, and as you eat of me, I am bringing you vigour and strength for the days ahead.

I am releasing to you an insatiable hunger for my Word that will not be satisfied with superficial, ‘fridge magnet sound bites’. Carve out for yourself space and time to dig really deep. Where you have struggled to engage and have struggled to read, I am releasing a fresh wind of my Spirit over your study of my Word. I am releasing a fresh excitement in your spirit to spend time in the Scriptures with me.

As you meditate on it, contemplate it, and discuss it, I am bringing you a fresh revelation of who I am. As you search the Scriptures, if you seek me, you will find me. My heartbeat is on every page. My love runs through them from beginning to end. These are the words of eternal life. Come and eat your fill.

Activation: As you choose to receive and act on what God is releasing over you, ask him where to start reading, ask him what version to read. Maybe sit somewhere different. Ask Holy Spirit to bring it alive to you in a fresh way. Expect a difference!
