SCRIPTURE:

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 KJ21)

DEVOTIONAL:

One man of God said that “Meditation is a missing link in the Body of Christ today.” And I agree. Apart from hearing God’s Word preached and studying the Word, meditation is the most important ingredient for spiritual growth and “good success.” 

This is why God told Joshua in Joshua 1:8 KJ21, “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.”

You see, there is a wisdom and an understanding that comes through meditation that is beyond common and intellectual sense. It is mainly the method that God provided to renew our minds and impart to us ingenious waves of creativity and abilities, enabling us to walk in dominion here on the earth.

I learned about biblical meditation many years ago as a new believer; and by applying it in my life, I have had “good success” beyond my wildest dreams, not only in ministry but in my personal life. Meditation is a spiritual law, and it works every time. 

PRAYER:

Lord, thank you for Your spiritual law of meditation. I will meditate the Word of God day and night and I will have good success in every area of my life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
