I believe every Christian should know the Scriptures, and know it very well, until we are saturated in it .
I love the word 'saturated' used by John Piper...
how i visualise it is: if we are soaked in God's Word, we eat and drink God's Word, and we eat so much that our stomachs become ever increasing in size that we will need to eat more and more of it. it is so rich in nutrients that it begins to naurish all the tissues in our bodies, every neuron of our brains is saturated in it that it changes our motor and sensory functions, i.e. our actions and the way we perceive things are changed.
It is so rich that it begins to flow out of our mouths when we open our mouths, it flows out of our eyes when we see things, it makes us smell like it because the aroma flows out of every pore and hair follicle. And wherever we go, we leave that smell there.
Just like physical food, consistent+frequent+small meals is healthier than irregular+infrequent+big meals. Eat it correctly, it does not give us indigestion or malabsorption. Parasites in our tummy will obstruct the absorption of its nutrients and leave us undernaurished , regardless of how much we eat. So before we eat, clear the parasites in our heart, so that we receive optimal effect.
it is delicious and addictive, i put one piece in my mouth and my spirit wants more. i wanna eat it all.
The Word of God satisfies my stomach. after each meal, i can only let out a sigh of relief and pleasure, and give a contented burp, and say, ' Hmmm~~~, i am fully satisfied.' ....burppppp
