Today's Turning Point with David Jeremiah
Chew On It I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food. Job 23:12 Recommended Reading Philippians 4:4-9 [ http://iz3.me/47iw2zeTx1A1 ] In his book God’s Battle Plan for the Mind, David Saxton studied the Puritan practice of meditating on Scripture and concluded, “The believer must set aside healthy, generous portions of time for personal devotions, prayer, and Bible meditation.” Listen to Today's Radio Message [ http://iz3.me/57iw2zeTx1A1 ] The Puritans often likened meditation to chewing and digesting one’s meal, and this is a biblical analogy. The prophet Jeremiah said, “Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart” (Jeremiah 15:16). Jesus said we cannot live by bread alone, but by every word proceeding from God (Matthew 4:4). Reading the Bible is like sitting down for a meal, but sometimes we’re like teenagers—wolfing down our food so quickly we hardly taste it. The process of meditation is taking one of those verses or passages, chewing on it, and digesting it in our minds. We think about it as we fall asleep and as we arise. We ponder it while driving or taking our daily jog. The Word of God is our nourishment, and we should “think on these things” (Philippians 4:8, KJV). Read-Thru-the-Bible Judges 6 – 8 [ http://iz3.me/67iw2zeTx1A1 ]
