Dear brothers and sisters,
Loving greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus
Christ. Today let us see about the importance of meditating on
God and His great works what He has done in our lives. The psalmist
says I will remember the deeds and the miracles of the lord and
meditate on all his work as in Psa 77:11 & 12, I will remember
the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long
ago. Psa 77:12 I will meditate on all your works and consider
all your mighty deeds.”
Why we must meditate on the works of God?
Joshua commanded all the people of God (the Israelites) not to
forget the Law of God so that they can both prosper and successful
in their lives.
• To remember the law of God he told them to meditate them
day and night. That helped them to get a successful living from
God as in Josh 1:8, “Do not let this Book of the Law depart
from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may
be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous
and successful.” We can also get a successful living by
meditating on God and his works.
• We have to do this so that we may not forget God and all
his works in our lives as in Psa 103:2, “Praise the LORD,
O my soul, and forget not all his benefits”
Where we can meditate the Lord very effectively about God?
We can meditate about the lord in the temple of God as in Psa
48:9, “within your temple, O God, we meditate on your unfailing
love. What will be the advantage other than success in life? We
will be having more insight than those who taught us the word
of God as in Psa 119:99 I have more insight than all my teachers,
for I meditate on your statutes.
What time the psalmist use to meditate the promises of God?
The psalmist use to meditate on the promises of God in the nighttime
as in Psa 119:148, “My eyes stay open through the watches
of the night, that I may meditate on your promises.” We
can also daily spend few hours in meditating the great works of
God in our own lives.
As a grateful Christian we must not forget the works of God in
our lives. The meditation helps us to remember them in our lives.
It helps us to remain thankful to God as in Psa 143:5, “I
remember the days of long ago; I meditate on all your works and
consider what your hands have done.”
May the Lord help each one of us to follow him and meditate the
great works of God and his word in our lives to whole-heartedly
thank him all the days of our lives. Amen.
