MEDITATE UPON THE WORD
Main Text: Psalm 1:1-6
Memory Verse: Joshua 1:8
Introduction
As stated in the previous lesson, studying the Word
of God helps us to retain 50% of it. It is important however to note that
memorizing and meditating upon the word helps you to retain 100% of it.
Meditation helps you to draw and drink deep from God’s Word for nourishment and
good health and steady growth. From our study today, it will be noted that
meditation upon God’s Word leads to great blessing.

Conclusion
It has been noted that quite a number of
Christians read and steady the word of God but it is only one per cent who
meditate on it. Selwyn Hughes wrote that we will never really get the best out
of the word of God until we know how to meditate on it. It can only be easy for
you to meditate upon the Words of the God day and night if you delight in the
Word of God.
