Butter and Honey
Isaiah 7:14-15 KJV
14 "Therefore,
the Lord himself shall give a sign; Behold a virgin shall conceive,
and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. 15 Butter and honey
shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil and choose the good."
Human beings are endowed at birth with a basic sense of taste, smell,
hearing, sight, and touch. All information reaches the human brain through
these in-born faculties. Early stimulation of these few characteristics
through a variety of tastes, smells, sounds, sights, and textures, stimulates
these abili- ties to mentally recognize variety. By growth, a child's
mind forms discerning thought patterns of the physical world, laying
the foundation for future reliance on mental and spiritual criteria
for choice - rejecting some and choosing others. selah
The baby Messiah
Y'shua Jesus had the same physical need to grow. Perception of good
and evil is fundamental to making healthy and successful lifetime and
eternal choices. Butter and honey for taste were abeginning.
Y'shua Jesus was
not only successful --
He was victorious!
Praise the Lord!
