Have you ever thought, “I love God. I obey God. Why am I not receiving the blessings of the Lord? Is there something stopping what God has for me? Am I doing something wrong?” I have great news! I know the answer to your questions!
Lately, the Lord has been pressing into my spirit the word “meditation.” Many people think that this is a new age concept, that only those in an eastern religion would use the term. But THEY didn’t come up with that term; the Word of God did!
Joshua 1:8 says, “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.”
The Hebrew definition for meditate is “to ponder, to study, to speak.” Every success has a condition. Nothing comes easy; nothing is just given to you. There is an instruction that has to be followed. Look at what the above scripture commands:
- The Word shall not depart out of your mouth. Don’t speak your opinions or whatever crosses your mind. Speak the Word
- Meditate on it day and night. That’s 24/7 meditation – not some, not part, but all day and night.
- That you would observe to do the Word. See? You have to do something! Only then will your way will be prosperous and you will have good success!
WOW! WOW! Just think, IF you will obey the Word, everything that you need, want or can even think of is available to you! I’m not just talking about material things but peace, joy, happiness, comfort, salvation for your children….. anything! So today, turn the radio off, tv off, social media off and turn the Word on! Listen to it, think about it, speak it and DO IT. Then watch what will happen in your life!
