ย โWhat Food Are You Eating?โ โIn this podcast I will ย ask deep questions about what we feed our bodies, our minds, and most importantly, our souls.
Todayโs question is simple, but it hits deep:
โAre you eating the food of the worldโฆ or the food of God?โ
Letโs break that down. Not just physicallyโthough that mattersโbut spiritually.
What are you feeding your soul with? Whoโs setting the table for your heart? The worldโฆ or the Lord?
Letโs talk about the โfood of the world.โ I donโt just mean fast food or processed snacks. I mean the things the world feeds us daily:
-
The need for validation from social media
-
The pressure to succeed by any means necessary
-
Distractions, comparison, materialism
-
Quick pleasures that leave us empty
Itโs like spiritual junk food. It might taste good for a moment, but it never truly satisfies. It actually makes us hungrier for the wrong things.
Now letโs look at the food of God.
Jesus said in John 6:35, โI am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.โ
Thatโs soul food right there. The food of God is:
-
His Word
-
His presence
-
His promises
-
His peace
-
His Spirit living in us
When we feed on the truth of God, weโre nourished in a way the world canโt imitate. Thereโs joy, purpose, and strength even in the storm. And it lasts.
Think of Psalm 34:8:
“Taste and see that the Lord is good.”
Weโre meant to taste Himโto experience Himโnot just know about Him.
Letโs be realโitโs easy to eat what the world offers. Itโs everywhere, and itโs tempting. But God invites us to His table every single day.
So how do we choose His food?
-
Start the day in prayer, even if itโs short
-
Read Scripture like itโs your daily breadโbecause it is
-
Guard your mindโwhat you watch, listen to, dwell on
-
Surround yourself with people who feed your faith, not your fear
-
Fast from things that numb you to God
Every meal is a choice. Every thought is a bite. What are you feeding yourself with?
So, let me ask you again:
What food are you eating?
Is it feeding your soul or draining it?
Is it eternal or just empty calories for your spirit?
Jesus said in Matthew 4:4, โMan shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.โ
Friends, letโs choose the food of heaven over the food of hype. Letโs sit at Godโs tableโwhere the bread doesnโt run out and the water never dries up.
Let us ask ourselves, what food are you eating?
