“Meditate on these things; give yourself entirely to them, that your progress may be evident to all.”(1Timothy 4:15)

THE WORD OF GOD
The Word of God is powerful, it is progressive, productive and it is perfect to perform.Just by looking around us, it is clear that the Word of God is living and powerful. God created the whole world by His Word and all were established for His glory. The Bible said, “He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.” (Psalm 107:20)The Word of God is meant to heal and to deliver in the lives of those who choose to believe and receive His Word. How are you making use of the living Word of God in your life, each and every moment of the day? God commanded in Joshua 1:8, “This Book of the 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 good success.”
MEDITATE NOT JUST MEMORIZE
Meditating upon His Word is what God requires of us. It is not enough for us to just memorize the Word. It is possible to memorize The Word of God and quote the scriptures from our head, but it is not enough until you begin to mediate it and quote from the heart. Among the many reasons why God commands us to meditate on His Word is stated in Joshua 1:9, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”In this world of wickedness and challenges, being strong and of good courage, and not being afraid or dismayed, is evidence that God is with us at all times wherever we go. As a believer that expects God to be with him everywhere he goes, such a believer will have to meditate on the Word of God day and night. The Word of God is God. Meditate on the Word of God and you will not be forsaken by God. Having success in life is different from having good success in life. It is important to know that whatever is good comes from God and good success is God success. Whatever is short of good is short of God. God meant what He said and doing what He said is the only way of having a prosperous life and of good success. God’s commands are to be taken seriously. Do you treasure the command of God? He requested for meditation to be a day and night engagement and not to be only at our own convenience.
TREASURE MEDITATION
Consider the Word of God as a treasure. Treasure is what to retain, regard or to treat as precious. It is what a person greatly values. When you understand and know to treasure the Word of God it becomes evident that you are set for great exploit. However, treasure has its price and the price of treasure is to meditate day and night just as commanded by God. Have you been responding to the Word of God at your convenience?
COMMIT TO MEDITATION
Meditation is a command that calls for commitment and not a command that is responded to at your convenience. Obeying The Word of God will always incur the blessings of God while disobeying The Word of God will also engender His curse. Why not take to the command in the Word of God, meditate on His Word and enjoy the blessings of obedience? The Word of God is true and as God said in Isaiah 55:11, “So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” It is proven throughout the Bible; from the Old Testament to the New Testament that obedience in meditating the word of God will produce only progressive and positive results. Paul the apostle, after having mentored Timothy with the Word of God, admonished him by stating, “Meditate on these things; give yourself entirely to them, that your progress may be evident to all.”(1Timothy 4:15)Meditation is a command from God and it will always produce results. Do you consider yourself as a believer who constantly meditates on the Word as required by God? Are you getting results? Meditate on the Word day and night. Without giving your entirety to meditation there will never be evidence of progressive results. The Word of God is God and the Word of God is true to perform.

For Your wondrous works declare that Your name is near. (Psalm 75:1)
The work of God is His word and having the word of God inside you is having God. Tunde
