THE ART OF MEDITATION
READ: Joshua 1:1-8
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. :- Joshua 1:8
Enlargement will come through meditation. Most people do not think about the word of God enough! By thinking about the word of God you will begin to have revelation. Revelation is a spirit. The Bible speaks of the Spirit of revelation. You need the Spirit of revelation if you are to achieve anything for God. Teachers, pastors, prophets all need a Spirit of revelation! Revelation will come through meditation.
Joshua’s mission was to enlarge into The Promised Land. He was to occupy more land, more territories and more space. He was to enlarge until he displaced the enemies of God. He needed a master key to become successful. God gave him the master key of meditation.
Meditation is the art of becoming successful. Joshua was told to meditate on the Word and become a success. Meditation was the master key given to Joshua so that he could be successful. Has it ever occurred to you that successful people are deep thinkers? You do need to think a little deeply if you want to experience salvation. You do need to reflect a little more deeply on the word of God if you want to be successful. When I meditated on the scripture, “Give thyself wholly to these things” I received revelation and jumped out of practicing medicine into full-time ministry.
Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.
1 Timothy 4:15
Meditation is the art of extracting wisdom! Meditation is the art of becoming successful by extracting the fearful instructions out of God’s word. It is the art of becoming successful by developing a fear of God. Meditation is the art of becoming successful by extracting the details of things you have been told to do. Meditate upon the word of God!
