Victorious Christian Living
December 11, 2024
Joshua 1:8 This set of instructions is not to cease being a part of your conversations. Meditate on it day and night so that you may be careful to carry out everything written in it, for then you'll prosper and succeed. I've commanded you, haven't I? Be strong and courageous. Don't be fearful or discouraged because the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.
Meditating on God's Word brings His truths to memory.
Psalm 63:6 When I think of you in bed, I will meditate on You in the night watches.
Even in trials, I need to be in a frame of mind for praise and value God's loving kindness more than life. David comforted himself with thoughts of God. The mercies of God supported his soul.
Psalm 1:2 He delights in the Lord's instruction and meditates in His instruction day and night.
Focus on the word of God as the rule for our actions and the flow of our comforts.
Psalm 119:15 I will meditate on your precepts and respect your ways.
When read and studied with deep reflection and intentionality, the significance of the words goes deep into my heart, and the Holy Spirit can work through it to transform me from within.
Psalm 19:14 May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer.
Philippians 4:8-9 Finally, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is fair, whatever is pure, whatever is acceptable, whatever is commendable, if there is anything praiseworthy, if there is anything praiseworthy, keep thinking about these things. Likewise, keep practicing these things: what you have learned, received, heard, and seen in me. Then, the God of peace will be with you.
This peace will keep my heart and mind through Christ Jesus and keep me from sinking in times of trouble. It will keep me calm with inward confidence.
Take God's word deep into your heart so that the Holy Spirit can work through it to guide, purify, and transform you from within.
