Feasting On Spiritual Food

by Aaron Culp - HWCM Media Director

My wife and I love to go to the gym together. We try to get up early enough every morning so that we can go before I leave for work. I work a desk job and I’ve found that I have much more energy during the day when I take the time to exercise. I have also found that when I work out, it’s important to have a good diet. I can tell you from my personal experience that it is impossible to have a good workout if I haven’t had enough food to eat! Food is fuel for the body and when my tank is low, my body feels tired and doesn’t want to do anything! But when I am well fed with a proper diet, I have the energy I need to work out and I am able to exercise. I can just turn on the ipod and enjoy myself!

The same is true for my spiritual life. If I do not stay spiritually fed, I find myself sluggish and wanting to resist doing the things I know to be right. A long time ago, God spoke to the Israelites and said, “...man shall not live by bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord”. (Deut. 8:3) This word is as true now as it was when it was originally written. In the same way that our bodies need physical food, our spirit needs “spirit food”.

The Bible tells us that, “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God... that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16-17) At HWCM, we love to teach the Word of God so you will be strengthened and will be “equipped for every good work” in your life. For this reason we have placed many free resources on our website. We have many articles on various topics teaching the Word of God. We also have a whole library of Rita Langeland teachings on mp3(audio), so that you can hear the Word of God taught right on your personal computer! Also coming soon HWCM is going to have a groundbreaking new video podcast so that you can watch weekly episodes of Rita Langeland teaching the Word of God on your computer or handheld video player such as an ipod or iphone. You can find all this and more at www.hiddenwithchrist.com. Have a feast!
