Develope a Palate

Develope a Palate
Daily intake of the Word nourishes the Spirit. Jeremiah's Menu is an exercise in recognizing God's Word made flesh in and around me. Eating the Word in a way that supplies the spiritual nutrients needed to grow. The Menu is offered with the hope of inspiring you to taste and see that the Lord is good. Bon Appetite!

Quote Du Jour

Quote du Jour
Christians may differ on a variety of points, but they have all one spiritual appetite; and if we cannot all feel alike, we can all feed alike on the bread of life sent down from heaven. At the table of fellowship with Jesus we are one bread and one cup. As the loving cup goes round we pledge one another heartily therein. Get nearer to Jesus, and you will find yourself linked more and more in spirit to all who are like yourself, supported by the same heavenly manna. ---Charles Spurgeon, Morning and Evening

serving and worship

Serve...
Worship...
used interchangably by translators...

Exodus...
Let My people go that they may serve Me... worship Me...

As long as the Israelites worked for Pharaoh... served him... they could not serve Him...

Trapped in slavery... His people could not serve... worship...

Trapped as slaves to sin... His people cannot serve... worship...

To worship is to have a heart of service for whatever it is you worship...

Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey -- whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?
Romans 6:16

Believers are no longer held by sin...
freed by Christ...

Free to worship... serve... whom we choose...

A life free to serve Him...
a life free to worship...

We're in no hurry, God. We're content to linger in the path sign-posted with your decisions. Who you are and what you've done are all we'll ever want.
Isaiah 26:8
Msg

What is the state of your worship?
Who do you choose... the flesh... the Spirit... Life... death...?
