From Turning Point, Dr. Jeremiah<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cThe time is surely coming,\u201d says the Sovereign Lord, \u201cwhen I will send a famine on the land\u2014not a famine of bread or water but of hearing the words of the Lord.\u201d<\/em>

When we lose our appetite for Scripture, it\u2019s because of spiritual sickness. Ask God to give you a renewed appetite for His Word, and learn to devour it daily.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
