Psalm 1:1-2 Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, 2 but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. According to Webster, the word MEDITATE means 1. to reflect on: PONDER 2. to plan or intend in the mind...to engage in contemplation. Vines An Expository Dictionary of Biblical Words says that MEDITATE means primarily, to care for, attend to, practice, be diligent in, ...... to practice is the prevalent sense of the word Proverbs 4:20 says, My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words. If we put Proverbs 4:20 together with these definitions of the word MEDITATE , we see that we attend to Gods Word by meditating on it, pondering on it, contemplating it, by rehearsing or practicing it in our thinking. The basic idea is that if we want to do what the Word of God says, we must spend time thinking about it. Remember the old saying, Practice makes perfect ? We really do not expect to be experts at anything in life without a lot of practice, so why would we expect Christianity to be any different? #Battlefield #JoyceMeyer #homework
