It is God's desire that you move from the milk to the meat of His Word. This is how you increase your knowledge of God's Word:
Whom shall He teach knowledge? And who shall be made to understand doctrine? Them that are weaned from the milk and drawn from the breasts. (Isaiah 28:9)
It is important that you move from the milk to the meat for it is upon spiritually mature believers that God pours out His Spirit:
Whom shall He teach knowledge? and whom shall He make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk and drawn from the breasts.
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little;
For with stammering lips and another tongue will He speak to this people.
To whom He said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear. (Isaiah 28:9-12)
God wanted to bless His people with an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. He wanted to revive them and give them spiritual rest, but they could not enter in because they had not heard His Words. They could not move on to spiritual meat because they were not weaned from the milk of the Word.
HOW TO MOVE FROM MILK TO MEAT
Now, the big question is . . . How does a newborn Christian move from the milk to the meat of God's Word?
DESIRE THE MILK:
First, you must desire the milk of the Word. You must gain an understanding of the basic principles of the Word of God:
As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word that ye may grow thereby. (I Peter 2:2)
You cannot start with spiritual meat. You must first desire and learn to digest spiritual milk.
