|
Posted By: MIISRAEL Bride on December 04, 2011 IF YOU DO NOT MEDITATE... Meditation is by far a necessary praise unto God. When or if you do not meditate there may reasons you are not fulfilling the obedience of God’s service required of yourself. For in obedience to God it is part of your worship service to him. Although you may want to find excuses to do everything else you leave out a very vital part of your relationship to grow in obeying God. Meditation time is purposed to concentrate of your thanksgiving, your health, strength, and vitality of living are given in reverence to service to think, pray, praise and devote time to God. You will allow all things openly known with your meditations so that truth abounds you and peace will supply you with a most spiritual development of faith. It is no wonder many lack in faith, or have weaker faith is due much of the time from the little of no time spent in meditation to the Father. If you do not meditate you may subject yourself to draw easily to sins of the body and commit unclean things due to temptations. It is important to examine yourself and meditation is one way you will be able to start so that you become a temple in which God will reside to give you love, truth, and guidance of your purpose in serving out virtues true to him. Stay alert that meditation keeps you prepared for the Lord’s reign: “The Lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him and cut him in sunder and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers. [Luke: 12:46] A certain man made a great supper, and bade many;… “And they all with one consent began to make excuse.” [Luke: 14:16 and verse 18] “For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing and their eyes have closed.” [Matthew: 13:15] Meditation time is yearning your participation. Excuses will need to placed aside for God is pleased for those who take time to think on him. “Let the words of my mouth the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight O’ Lord my strength and my redeemer.
