Ever creature of God must remain connected to and nourished by its source for it to remain alive and well. In the book of Genesis, God said, “… let the waters bring forth abundantly moving creature that hath life” (Genesis 1:20). He spoke to the water to produce fish and other aquatic creatures. That’s why the fish in the sea have to remain water to survive, because that’s their source. If you were to take the fish out of your aquarium and place it on a beautiful or ornamented table, it would die as its cut off from its source.
In the same way God said, “Let the earth bring the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and the beast of the earth after his kind and it was so” (Gen. 1:24). So all the animal that lived on land actually came from the earth and that’s why they must remain on land in order to stay alive. No land animal can successfully live in the water permanently because the land is its source.
Man is a spirit and his spirit come from God, even though his physical body came from ground. Any man who his cut off from God, his source is actually in death. That’s why Jesus said that such a one must be born again (John 3:7). If you’re born again, you are born again by the word of God (1 peter 1:23), therefore you must also remain connected to your source which is the word of God, which itself is God.
Not staying in the word is to starve your spirit of the material it need to survive, grow and function normally, make a quality decision to remain connected to the word of God, which is nourishment you need for a healthy, prosperous, successful and victorious life! Read and study it every day, meditate on it and keep speaking it.
