Desiring God’s Word

1 Peter 2:1

Therefore, putting aside all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander,

–

Desechando, pues, toda malicia, todo engaño, hipocresía, envidias, y todas las detracciones,

1 Peter 2:2

like newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may grow in respect to salvation,

–

desead, como niños recién nacidos, la leche espiritual no adulterada, para que por ella crezcáis para salvación,

1 Peter 2:3

if you have tasted the kindness of the Lord.

–

si es que habéis gustado la benignidad del Señor.

In these verses Peter is telling us, we must desire the word of God because of the blessings the word accomplishes in our lives.

First we will look at what would hinder us from desiring the word. Then we will look at what we will gain, what would motivate us, and then what it looks like when we desire the word of God.
