主耶稣就是我们的‘维生素’。祂是植物饼，也是肉饼，是供应我们的。祂如何供应我们？就是藉着祂的话，给我们接受进来。祂的话从祂口里出来是话，一进到我们里面就是灵；从我们里面再说出去，就是话；再接受到别人里面，就又是灵。当我祷告说，‘主，你是生命的粮，是生命的饼。’我就接受这话；这话一接受到我里面，就成了灵；这灵就是生命，成了我的供应。然后我把我里面的供应、我的生命、我的灵，也释放出来，就成了话。你们一接受这话，这话又在你们里面变成了灵。因此，话与灵、灵与话，二者其实就是一。
亲爱的弟兄姊妹，圣经都是主的话，接受话就是吃主。所以我们天天要读经，并且要化成祷告。这就是我们所说的‘祷读主话’。神是灵，这灵的具体化身就是话。假使没有圣经，我们就很难了解圣灵，也就无法摸着神。神是灵；但这位灵太渺茫、太奥秘、太抽象了。感谢主，今天这灵成了话，并且是很确定的一本圣经，从创世记到启示录。无论你打开那一章，无论你祷读那一节，都能叫你摸着神。譬如创世记一章一节说，‘起初神创造天地。’你不光读，并且祷告说，‘神！起初，哦，起初神！感谢神，你是起初。你是一切的起头。’你这样一祷告，不只得着亮光，还有供应。
圣经的话你一祷告，就成了灵，成了生命。主耶稣说，‘赐人生命的乃是灵，肉是无益的；我对你们所说的话，就是灵，就是生命。’（约六63）全本圣经，包括新、旧约在内，都是主对我们所说的话。马太四章四节告诉我们：‘人活着不是单靠食物，乃是靠神口里所出的一切话。’

Eating the Lord by Praying His Word – Matt. 4:4
The Lord Jesus is our “vitamin.” He is the plant-bread and also the meat-bread — our supply. How does He supply us? It is through His Word, which we receive into us. His words come out of His mouth as words; once they enter into us, they become Spirit. When these words come back out of us, they are words again; and when they are received into others, they again become Spirit. For example, when I pray, saying, “Lord, You are the bread of life, the bread of life,” I receive this Word. As soon as this Word enters into me, it becomes Spirit. This Spirit is life and becomes my supply. Then I release this supply, this life, this Spirit within me, and it becomes words. When you receive these words, they again become Spirit in you. Therefore, word and Spirit, Spirit and word, are in fact one.
Beloved brothers and sisters, the Bible is the Word of the Lord. To receive the Word is to eat the Lord. That is why we need to read the Bible every day, and even turn what we read into prayer. This is what we mean by “pray-reading the Word of the Lord.” God is Spirit, and the embodiment of this Spirit is the Word. Without the Bible, it would be very difficult for us to know the Spirit or to touch God. God is Spirit, but this Spirit is too vague, mysterious and abstract. Praise the Lord that today this Spirit has become the Word, concretely expressed in one definite book — the Bible — from Genesis to Revelation. No matter what chapter you open, no matter what verse you pray-read, you can touch God. For example, Genesis 1:1 says, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” You don’t just read it; you pray, “God! In the beginning — oh, in the beginning, God! Thank You, God, You are the beginning. You are the beginning of all things.” As you pray like this, you will not only receive light, but also supply.
Thank the Lord that He is Spirit, that this Spirit has also become the Word, and that He has given us His name. Now we have the Bible, the Holy Spirit and His name. What is needed is simply that we spend a little time to practically exercise and enjoy Him. It doesn’t require much time — just ten minutes every morning to contact the Lord and enjoy Him.
