STAY FIT: Strengthening Your Connection To JesusSample
There is a promise in Psalm 1: If we delight in and meditate on God’s Word, whatever we do will prosper. To delight in and to meditate on means that we are thinking about and turning over God’s Word in our minds and hearts daily.
Hebrews 4:12 says that the Word of God is living and active. It is powerful. As we think about God’s Word, our minds are renewed and the decisions we make on a daily basis change. This can affect our emotions. When we make right decisions based on the truth of God’s Word, we have a sense of peace and joy and delight. These contribute to a “prosperous life” according to God’s Word.
Pick your favorite passage from the Bible (or use Psalm 1:1-3). Read it a few times. Perhaps copy it word for word. Meditate on it. Turn it over in your mind and begin to put it into practice. See the difference it makes in your thoughts, decisions, and emotions. It will change your life.
In what ways are you delighting in and mediating on God’s Word?
