Feed Your Mind with God's Word By Rick Warren — January 7, 2019 "People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God" (Matthew 4:4 NLT). If you want a healthy mind, you must feed your mind with truth. We all know the importance of nutrition. Good food and good calories make you stronger and healthier and give you more energy. Bad calories and junk food harm your body. The same is true in your thought life. You must feed your mind not with junk or poison but with truth. One time I had the privilege of lecturing at Oxford University, and while I was there, I was invited to go to a meeting of Oxford Analytica. This is a group you've likely never heard of that has enormous influence in the world. Every day around 6 a.m., the leading scholars of Oxford gather in a room to get reports from all around the world about what's happened in the last 24 hours, from crop prices rising in China to more unrest in the Middle East. Then they make the decision about what needs to be said about it. By 11 a.m. a report has been given to groups that pay big bucks for this information, such as the CIA and major corporations. Oxford Analytica is founded on the idea that the best leaders make the best decisions when they have the best information. Even if you are a good leader, if you don't have the best information, you're going to make a bad decision. You need the best information to live the best life that God wants you to live. That information is right there in the Word of God. The Bible says in Matthew 4:4, "People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God" (NLT). God wants you to make the best decisions and receive his best for your life. You do that by feeding on the Word of God throughout your day, every day.PLAY today's audio teaching from Pastor Rick >> Talk About It What is the most important part of your morning routine?
