ARE YOU ON A STARVATION DIET?

ARE YOU ON A STARVATION DIET?

You need to breath air I don't, you need water I don't, you need food I don't. The reason being "I am the Bread of Life that gives life--the Living Bread. [49] Your forefathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and yet they died. [50] But this is the Bread that comes down from heaven, so that anyone may eat of it and never die." John 6:48-50 (AMP)

You need natural food to stay alive, yet you do not eat to stay alive, you eat because you are hungry and the desire for food keeps you returning for more food, which in turn keeps you alive. However desire is not enough, you need to eat, put the food in your mouth and swallow it. With living bread you go through the same process, you don't just come to Me because you want to live eternally, because you have no concept what eternity is. You come to Me to eat of Me, because you are empty and your spirit stomach desires food, to satisfy spiritual hunger pangs. Please understand that, "No one is able to come to Me unless the Father Who sent Me attracts and draws him and gives him the desire to come to Me, and then I will raise him up from the dead at the last day." John 6:44 (AMP)

Your desire for Me is the key to your life on earth and in heaven. "I Myself am this Living Bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this Bread, he will live forever; and also the Bread that I shall give for the life of the world is My flesh (body)." John 6:51 (AMP) Here is what you may not know, soul food is junk food, better known as religion. It feels just like spirit food and can fill you up and satisfy the hunger pangs, yet you will be dying with a full stomach, because it lacks spiritual nutrition.

Doing good is so satisfying and attractive to the soul that no one will warn you, that you are not eating right. My father gives you the original desire, but faith and obedience increases that desire and that is where you come in. I am not talking about going to church, I am speaking of every day life focus. Your desire must increase to a point where your natural life is no longer important to you, and your focus is so much on the kingdom that you have no interest in what is decays and returns to dust.

Thirty years ago your focus may have been on a car, that you worked night and day to purchase. Since then it has been crushed and melted down to make another car that you again dreamed about and worked hard to purchase. You worked hard and honestly, satisfying your soul with good hard honest labor, with a steady focus on automobiles. Today, ten autos later, you drive a nice vehicle and do not realize that malnutrition has taken your life.

No one seems to notice, because all the good religious people around you are also malnourished. You keep saying to yourself, I am rich; I have prospered and grown wealthy, and I am in need of nothing; and you do not realize and understand that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. [18] Therefore I counsel you to purchase from Me gold refined and tested by fire, that you may be truly wealthy, and white clothes to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nudity from being seen, and salve to put on your eyes, that you may see." Revelation 3:17-18 (AMP)

Right now as you are reading this, if you feel a pull to change your focus, that's little spiritual hunger pangs and My way of getting you to eat the bread of life. Fear will keep you eating junk food to satisfy you soul man, but obedience will change your diet to the bread of life. Trust Me and don't worry, it's impossible to overeat spiritually. Multitudes are starving around you, and searching for spiritual food that satisfies. You decision can mean life or starvation for you and everyone in your sphere of influence.

Just look around you today, are the people you meet being blessed because they came in touch with you? Will you offer them religious soul food, or the bread of life?
