GROUNDWORK: THE DISCIPLINE OF MEDITATION
THE CHALLENGE — GIVE GOD ONE UNINTERRUPTED HOUR THIS WEEK
A christian man can be surrounded by information and still have no transformation.
Meditation is wrestling with God’s truth long enough for God’s truth to start shaping you.
That is meditation: staying in the with God long enough that you don’t walk away the same.
MEDITATION IS DEEPLY BIBLICAL
Our problem isn’t that we don’t have enough time. It’s that we don’t know how much of a priority, spending devoted time with God actually should be.
First off, Biblical meditation is not complicated.
Secondly, Christian meditation is not about emptying your mind.
Prayer is conversation with God.
Meditation is sustained attention upon God and what He has said.
Meditation is where Scripture moves from your eyes toward your bones.
Fix your mind somewhere else. Meditate on what is true. Meditate on God’s Word. Meditate on His works. Meditate on His character.
Whatever consistently occupies your mind will eventually influence your life.
Meditation is spiritual warfare.
You cannot make a deep impact without a deep life.
