HUNGER 

With so many opportunities and temptations to feed yourself, it is pivotal for us to guard our hunger! The worst thing that could happen to The Ruined is they allow the enemy to sabotage their appetite. Why? Because if the enemy can get your hunger, he can control the amount of courage, strength, and impact that flows from your life. 

It’s interesting that the first time hunger is mentioned in the Bible is in Genesis 2:16 when God says, “You are free to eat.”  That promise is true to this day. You and I can choose to hunger for Him or to hunger for the things of this world and the flesh. There is a natural and spiritual law that exists today which says, “What you feed on is what you will hunger for and release in your life.” If you feed on negativity, you will hunger for it and release it. If you feed on perversion, you will hunger for it and release it. If you feed on life, you will hunger for it and release it. If you hunger for Jesus, you will hunger for and release Him everywhere you go. The Ruined must remember we hunger for what we feed on.

Your spiritual hunger is your spiritual thermometer, and it will never lie to you. When I don’t eat in the natural, my body screams it’s hungry, but in the spiritual when I don’t eat, the opposite occurs. My spirit gets quieter, and I find it increasingly difficult to sense His direction for my life—what He is saying as I minister. If I don’t feed my spirit often, I will end up being unfamiliar with His voice and miss moments because I was malnourished and unable to recognize His presence. Don’t allow your spirit to get dull and numb. Feed yourself intentionally and correctly!
