Hungry God

It took me years to read the Bible but still I am hungry for the word of God. Every time there is a chance of attending fellowship in the congregation of Saints, off and there I go.

My point of view as a faithful believer is that, I am still hungry even unto this very day. And how about God, does he feel hungry for the simple reason that he also has a mouth?

Rev 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

God also has a sense of smell, the reason why the Israelite of the old times are commanded to offer sacrifices unto him for the forgiveness of their sins.

Lev 3:16 And the priest shall burn them upon the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire for a sweet savor: all the fat is the LORD's.

Come to think of it, does the smell really please him or the one who offered the sacrifice pleases him?

Heb 10:4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.

Heb 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:

Heb 10:6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

Remember that God is spirit with no flesh and bones.

Lk 24:39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

Present therefore our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is our spiritual service.

Eph 5:2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

So that even we are saved or perished with God, we are a sweet savor unto him through Christ Jesus.

2 Cor 2:15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:

We must not be weary in doing well: for in due season we shall reap, if we continue in faith.

Rev 7:16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.

Rev 7:17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

Let us take our part in God's spiritual being, If he is hungry, not for the literal food we think sumptuous, then let's feed him with good works.

2 Pet 1:5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;

2 Pet 1:6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;

2 Pet 1:7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

2 Pet 1:8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
