Meditation

Joshua 1:1-9

The word of God encourages meditation not memorization. When you memorize it will mesmerize (Hypnotize-a sleep like condition) you. When you memorize it cannot be activated in time of need. It stays on you like a decoration and it lacks power to produce results. However, when you meditate as the word of God required, it will become a power source for you and produce results on a consistent basis. Meditation is a labor; you have to work the word before it works for you. Josh.1:8 this book of law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have a good success. Can you see the labor that is required? Is it worth it? Absolutely it is more than worth it. What meditation does is make you spend your whole time (day and night) thinking the word; in whatever you are doing so you are able to observe the word. Observation will give you an eye to see clearly in the word. Clarity of seeing will enable you to do according to what the word is saying. In your doing of the word, GodÕs prosperity and good success (not just the success of this world) will become you. Ask God for understanding of His word and you will have a knowing-edge (Knowledge) over confronting situations in your world.
