But Jonathan had not heard his father charge the people with the oath; therefore he stretched out the end of the rod that was in his hand and dipped it in a honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth; and his countenance brightened. .

In the Bible, honey is often used as a metaphor for Godโs word. As we established yesterday, it is the act of meditating on Godโs word that enables our spirit man to taste the Word of God. This is because meditation is to our spirit body what digestion is to our physical body. However, the believer must be careful to only meditate on Godโs word. In todayโs Bible reading when Jonathan tasted the honey his countenance brightened. Other versions of the Bible say, when he ate the honey: his energy was renewed (CSV), he was revived (EHV), his energy was restored (AMP), his eyes received sight (GNV), it gave him new life (NIRV). This makes us understand that meditating on Godโs word causes our spiritual strength to be renewed, revives us, restores our energy, opens the eyes of our spirit man and enables us to access the living word. Faith is spiritual strength & energy Also, since the Bible also says that, โA manโs wisdom makes his face shineโ (๐๐๐๐ฅ๐๐ฌ๐ข๐๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ฌ ๐:๐๐), this tells us that meditating on Godโs word also enables us to access the wisdom of God. What are you waiting for? Begin meditating on Godโs word today!
