JOHN 4:34
In today's HOLINESS CHALLENGE, I challenge you to MAKE THE WILL OF GOD YOUR MEAT/FOOD, AND LET IT BE YOUR SOURCE OF STRENGTH AND SATISFACTION.
Our Lord Jesus didn't derive His satisfaction from eating food. He has a better alternative and seized the opportunity to tell His disciples where they should derive their strength and satisfaction from - DOING GOD'S WILL.
In our daily lives, we encounter many people and hear them gush about their 'FAVORITE MEAL', which means they found that meal irresistible and would therefore stop at nothing to relish every moment enjoying this favorite delicacy.
Jesus used this metaphor to drive the point home, that what gives Him satisfaction is not physical food, but DOING GOD'S WILL EVERYDAY.
What makes you happy in this life?
It may not be food, possibly your beauty, wealth, intelligence, connections, popularity, and what have you.
If in this world, your ONLY source of satisfaction is in ephemeral things, then you need to opt out and choose the BEST ALTERNATIVE Jesus recommends to everyone who cares today - DO GOD'S WILL EVERY MOMENT OF YOUR LIFE, whether anyone is watching you or not.
Be yourself whilst at it, Don't focus on pleasing yourself or pleasing men!
GOD OVER EVERYTHING ELSE!
