As we cook all day to get ready for one of the biggest meals of the whole year, What will you be serving for Thanksgiving? What will be the most nourishing thing YOU share with everyone this Holiday?
Jesus said;
☆ “‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every WORD that comes from the mouth of God.’”
• Matthew 4:4
Jesus is telling us that the most healthy food for our Spirit, for our lives, comes from reading The Word.
One of the most important aspects of Ahavah Mens Ministry, is creating a consistent discipline of reading and then with time, discernment of the Bible.
Many men have come to their first Ahavah Mens Group meeting not really knowing much about The Word.
They know about the Bible. They will recognize scriptures, they will know many of the stories, but they have yet to ‘personalize’ it.
They have not yet found out how to apply the Word as the living, breathing voice of God, to their lives.
It is too much for them to digest.
☆ I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you were not ready for it. And even now you are not yet ready
• 1 Corinthians 3:2
Ahavah Mens Ministry is filled with so many mature men of God, from so many backgrounds, from so many different experiences, all with such a love for the Lord and years of experience learning the Word.
So, after some time of being involved in the groups, the new man feels a difference within himself, sees the difference in his life, and becomes enthusiastic about learning and going deeper into seeing how the scriptures reflect in him.
He is ready to take a real bit of the solid meat of the Word.
☆ But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.
• Hebrews 5:14
So, as you host your dinner party, or as you bring your contribution to put on the table;
What are YOU serving for Thanksgiving?
What is the most important thing YOU are serving, or offering to the gathering to provide the most nourishment?
What can you bring that many not make people tired and want to sleep, but instead happy and encouraged?
What item served at dinner will YOU be most Thankful for?
☆ Your words were found, and I ate them, and your words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart, for I am called by your name, O Lord, God of hosts.
• Jeremiah 15:16
What are YOU serving for Thanksgiving?
The Lord has told us what should be 1st at ALL OF OUR tables.
I love you guys!
