Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever (1 Peter 1:23).

Every creature of God must remains 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 the 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 in the water to survive, because that's their source.
If you were to take fish out of your aquarium and place it on a beautifully ornamented table, it would die, as it's cut off from its source.

In the same way, God said, "Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping things, and breast of the earth after his kind: and it was so " (Genesis 1:24), So, all the animals that live 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 came from God even though his physical body came from the ground. Any man who is cut 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're born by the word of God (1 Peter 1:23), therefore you also must remain connected to your source which is the word of God, which himself is God (John 1:1). Not staying in the word is to starve your Spirit of the material it needs to survive, grow and function normally.

Make a quality decision to remain connected to the Word of God, which is the nourishment you need for a healthy, prosperous, successful and victorious life! Read and study it everyday, meditate on it and keep spreading it.
