I was totally hooked on sugar. I didn’t know until I had to quit how hard it would be. I literally sat on the couch biting my fingers to keep from screaming. Over time I successfully retrained my taste buds.

Hebrews 5:13 says, “For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe.” 1 Peter 2:3 says, “As newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby.”

Before we were saved, we had worldly taste buds. At salvation, our palate is touched with the doctrine of eternal security. Our faith grows as we continue to hear God’s word. Romans 10:17. 

2 Timothy 2:15 says, “Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 1 John 2:27 says, “But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you…” 

Are you retraining your taste buds through diligent study of His word? Are you applying it to your life to live it out for His glory?
