"Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful." - Joshua 1:8
We are not the only ones who train our children. God does too.
One of the ways He instructs us to train is found in
Joshua 1:8.
God tells Joshua to "meditate on [the Word] day and night." Psalm 1:1-2 says “blessed is the one… who meditates on His law day and night.” Psalm 119 has at least eight references to meditating on the word, the promises, and
the works of God.
So, no, meditation is not just some yoga, new age term
for Hipsters. It’s a Biblical command. And it’s part of the way God trains us.
So, what does meditation look like for the believer? The
answer may surprise you.
More to come!
God bless,
J.W.
