January is The Month of Meditation

1 Kings 18

30 Then Elijah said to all the people, “Come here to me.” They came to him, and he repaired the altar of the Lord, which had been torn down. 31 Elijah took twelve stones, one for each of the tribes descended from Jacob, to whom the word of the Lord had come, saying, “Your name shall be Israel.” 32 With the stones, he built an altar in the name of the Lord, and he dug a trench around it large enough to hold two seahs[a] of seed. 33 He arranged the wood, cut the bull into pieces, and laid it on the wood. Then he said to them, “Fill four large jars with water and pour it on the offering and on the wood.”

34 “Do it again,” he said, and they did it again.

“Do it a third time,” he ordered, and they did it the third time. 35 The water ran down around the altar and even filled the trench.

36 At the time of sacrifice, the prophet Elijah stepped forward and prayed: “Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant and have done all these things at your command. 37 Answer me, Lord, answer me, so these people will know that you, Lord, are God, and that you are turning their hearts back again.”

38 Then the fire of the Lord fell and burned up the sacrifice, the wood, the stones, and the soil, and also licked up the water in the trench.

39 When all the people saw this, they fell prostrate and cried, “The Lord—he is God! The Lord—he is God!”

 

We will repair our thinking process and sharpen our decision-making ability.

We will rebuild the consciousness of the supernatural life of God at work in us deliberately.

We will dig a trench of hunger and thirst for the Spirit in our hearts.

We will arrange or position ourselves for the Word and Power of the Lord.

We will allow the water of the Word to saturate us and immerse us completely.

His purifying fire shall fall upon our realities, and we shall be of one mind with the Holy Spirit as intended by the Lord.

 

For a long time, many of God’s children equated meditation with just thinking or pondering over the Word. However, meditation is much more than thinking deeply on a subject. That is just one aspect of meditation; there’s more to it revealed in God’s Word.

Meditation is one of the godly exercises that you must practice for a life of dominion and glory. It is a vital activity for every child of God, and its power cannot be overemphasized.

In Joshua 1:8, the Bible says, “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but that shalt meditate on it therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

 

THREE LEVELS OF MEDITATION

The word “meditation” in the verse of scripture above is translated from the Hebrew word “hagar,” which means to “imagine; mutter”. It also means to “roar”. This immediately tells us that there are three levels of meditation, each of which is vital.

1. Visualize God’s Word as you study it. This means to ponder or think quietly on God’s Word in a picture. As you keep these pictures in your mind, the Word will be driven into your spirit and will take root there.
2. Mutter God’s Word. This means to speak God’s Word under your breath, to yourself, over and over again. As you do this, the Word will become personal to you. It will go beyond the written page, beyond the reading of your mind and intellect, into your spirit. It will become God’s Word to you, and not some distant words written in the Bible.
3. Roar God’s Word! At this stage, you shout God’s Word out loud. In the book of Isaiah 31:4, the Bible says, “For thus hath the Lord spoken unto me, like as the lion, and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them…”

In this verse of scripture, the Bible beautifully translates the same Hebrew word “hagar” as “roar”. The purpose of this kind of meditation is to drown every other thought in your consciousness, including thoughts that the devil may try to bring, and cause the Word of God in your spirit to rise. When you begin shouting God’s Word to yourself like this, some other folks may think something is wrong with you but continue. The Bible says “…for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous and then thou shalt have good success”.

Meditation drives the Word into your spirit. It takes the Word from your mind into your spirit. In your mind, you can still reason out the Word of God, but when it gets to your spirit, it becomes real and personal to you. That Word may not have any scientific explanation, but you just know that it is reality, and there is nothing that can take it from you.

Also, it is important to understand that meditation is what gives you rhema. Rhema is the spoken Word of God. It is the “now” Word of God for your situation, and you receive it by meditating on the written Word, which is logos. Logos has the ability to produce results in you and to deliver an inheritance to you, but it will not make you enjoy your inheritance. The Word that changes things is rhema. With rhema, there is no condition in your body that cannot be changed.

Another powerful result of meditation is that it will make you the Word! This is God’s purpose for giving you His Word, so we would become the Word.

As you practice meditating consistently on God’s Word, you find that you will begin to think, talk, and act like God. Your whole life will become a reflection of the Word.

When this happens, it will be impossible for any sickness to remain in your body, because the Word would have permeated your entire body system and taken charge of your being. Understand that the Word has the divine energy to affect everything about your life, including your physical body. Proverbs 4:22 says, “For they (the Word) are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh”.

There may be a situation in your body that you desire a change; find someplace where you can be alone and meditate on God’s Word. You may not feel like it, especially when your body is telling you something different, but do it. The Word is sure to prevail over that situation and causes you to walk in victory always.
