*DAILY DEW 13TH/JUNE/2021* *From Milk to Meat* _Key Bible Text:_ *For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.* (Hebrews 5:12 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ In my work as a youth sunday school teacher and coordinator, there are persons I have approached asking them to consider taking up the role of youth teachers, and they do nothing but give excuses. They just don't see how that will happen. Some of them go as far as telling you that it is not their calling. Some accept, but never show the required commitment and consistency. Yet some others, go ahead to become dedicated teachers. Hebrews 5 verse 12 throws a serious challenge at everyone who is an obedient follower of Jesus Christ. Let's consider the Good News version rendition: *"There has been enough time for you to be teachers---yet you still need someone to teach you the first lessons of God's message. Instead of eating solid food, you still have to drink milk."* It is quite disturbing to see a child who ought by reason of age to be eating some other kinds of solid food, still fixated on milk or liquid food. While there are medical or health conditions or challenge that can explain or warrant that in humans, how do one exactly explain how a child of God will perpetually remain at the level of spiritual babyhood from year to year!? God is calling his children to grow from being milk dependants to being meat chewers and sharers. The key to achieving this is giving time to the word, prayers and exhortation. Routinely engaging in these activities is a basic requirement to spiritual growth and impact. *MEDITATION:* *Anyone who has to drink milk is still a child, without any experience in the matter of right and wrong. Solid food, on the other hand, is for adults, who through practice are able to distinguish between good and evil.* Hebrews 5:13-14 (GNB) *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Tuesday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Undeniable_lifting* *#Hello_July* ❤ Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional/episodes/TROUBLED-elli7h *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/07/from-milk-to-meat.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
