F.B. Meyer emphasizes the importance of the Word of God in the life of a believer, using the story of Jonathan who, amidst the chaos of battle, found strength and enlightenment from tasting honey. He draws a parallel between the sweetness of honey and the nourishing power of Scripture, suggesting that even a small intake can provide significant refreshment and clarity. Meyer warns against complacency after success, urging believers to continually seek nourishment from God's Word, regardless of their circumstances. The sermon highlights that true spiritual vitality comes from a consistent engagement with Scripture, which is essential for both victory and defeat.
