Some time after having accepted Jesus as my Savior, the Lord led me to an independent Baptist church in Norfolk, VA where I was baptized. I started reading and meditating on the scriptures. I realized that this was the truth that the world is looking for.
I learned that if you really want the Holy Spirit to teach you the truths of His Word, spend time meditating on scripture!
As a cow ruminates it’s cud over and over in order to receive the vital nutrients from it, and digest it, so must the child of God sped time mentally ruminating God’s Word in order to get the vital spiritual nutrition so necessary to the Christian life.
We have an anemic Christianity in America because we have spiritually anemic Christians. The enemy is inside the gate. We need some spiritual SEALs for the kingdom of God!
