GOT MILK?

 

Got Milk?  This was an American advertising campaign on television and YouTube encouraging the consumption of milk and dairy products.  This commercial told you that milk would make you both stronger and healthier, it didn’t take into account that many people were Lactose Intolerant.  However, know that Milk does serve a purpose in the Church.

“Milk” is good for those who are young in the Lord, however, if you desire to become a mature Christian, then “meat” is a necessity. The “meat” of God’s word includes those teachings and truths which are designed to help Christians…  Hebrews 5: 12 – 14  When you attend church, bible study and other church functions, you……..

…. develop spiritual strength…

…. create godly character….

……establish solid principles…

….fulfill sacred commitments…

…. improve personal relationships…

…. arrange appropriate priorities….

And ….manifest a holy lifestyle….

“Milk” may be enjoyable, but it will require “meat” … if you want to resist the devil, or overcome temptation, or win spiritual victories, or withstand opposition, or conquer strongholds, or survive hardships, or move mountains.

“Milk” may help you GET UP, but it will require “meat” if you are to STAY UP…

“Milk” may help you FIGHT, but it requires “meat” if you are to WIN THE BATTLE…

“Milk” may help you PRAY, but it will require “meat” if you are to BELIEVE IN GOD COMPLETELY.

“Milk” may help you REACH OUT, but it will require “meat” if you are to HOLD ON….

“Milk” may help you START, but it will require “meat” if you are to FINISH….

“Milk” may help you SING, but it will require “meat” if you are to continue to REJOICE….

And “Milk” may help you SURVIVE, but it will require “meat” if you are to become FRUITFUL in the kingdom of God!

Hopefully, there is more “meat” … than there are “Bones” in this message and wisdom from God (James 1:5) will help you to discern the difference.

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might.” (Ephesians 6:10)
