Breakfast
Hebrews 5:12-14 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food. For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe. But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
It is unclear who the writer of Hebrews was, but many think it was Paul, and it is also somewhat unclear of what group of people it may have been directed to. But the book of Hebrews has a clear message of salvation and atonement through Christ alone. Paul is trying to strengthen them in their faith, and encourage them to move forward with it.
When we are new to the faith, it comes with excitement, but sometimes that excitement passes and we never grow in our relationship. The growth of our faith is a never ending pursuit filled with zeal and intimacy with the Creator of the universe. This is only accomplished by spending time feeding on the nourishment He provides in His Word and prayer. John 4:32 But He said to them, “I have food to eat of which you do not know.” Christ was speaking of his labor of love for the will of His Father, and the joy and nourishment He obtained through it. That spiritual nourishment is available to you through seeking God daily and following His will for your life also.
A day that starts with God in His Word and prayer is the most important meal of the day. David puts in well, even in perspective of today’s society which is so far from God. Psalm 63:A Psalm of David when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, You are my God; Early will I seek You; My soul thirsts for You; My flesh longs for You In a dry and thirsty land Where there is no water. Time consecrated to God every day is rewarded by Him with a spiritual nourishment to face the day. A new light is shed on the day through the power of His Word and the application you find for it daily in your life. The only way to grow, is to eat of it.

I believe, and have read… ~big grin~ The people to whom the letter was directed towards were Hebrews. They were early Jewish believers that were experiencing persecution for their faith and were considering returning to the Jewish religious system and rites (The Temple was still standing and operating) until the persecution subsided; believing that they could return to their salvation. This is very important information since the letter contains very vivid warnings that some have misinterpreted as doctrine that teaches that salvation can be lost. The epistle to the Hebrews is one of five written that are known as the Messianic epistles, (Jude, James, 1 & 2 Peter), that address very specific Jewish issues in the early church. Not that the letter doesn’t hold very important doctrine for gentile believers, it’s just that it’s a mistake to attempt to interpret the letter while comparing it to the perception of a modern gentile church. This is the mistake that was made early on and led to error and schism in the church… (clever design by the enemy).
Thought that may peak your interest, God Bless.
