John 4
When the disciples asked Jesus to eat, he answered by saying, “my food is to do the will of the father”. We can ask ourselves the same question, what is our food?
The food of Jesus was to first obey God's will and secondly to the fulfill the work that God had given him. So what is your food? My food is foufou and beans and I think Michael’s is cheese and maybe for Michelle it is pâté maybe for Pete it's meat and for Joan it might be a rice. Each one has thier own food. The most important thing in Christian life is obedience to the Word of God. Whoever disobeys the Word of God will never live because obedience is the beginning of wisdom, it is the beginning of spiritual growth, it is the beginning of blessings, and it is the beginning of feeling the presence of God in your life.
God asks you to obey the Word of God first in your life and when you do, you will never have problems with your neighbours or with your government or with anyone. It is difficult to see Michelle obeying the Word of God and being arrested tomorrow for stealing. It will never happen. If Pete is obeying the Word of God he will never be arrested tomorrow for murder, because this contradicts the Word of God. We cannot become condemned because we obey the Word of God unless we are asked not to talk about this will of God and in that case we can be arrested and you know many people are arrested because of this Word and not because of their sins. But if you obey God’s Word, you will have a perfect life in the Lord.
