 Building a Rich Meditation Culture

Meditation shapes reality. Proverbs 23:7 says, “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.” Your outer life mirrors your inner thought life.

God gave us a clear process for transformation: “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night…” (Joshua 1:8). Notice it involves the mouth, mind, and actions. Meditation begins with thought, moves to speech, and manifests in lifestyle.

Here’s how to build a rich meditation culture:

  1. Fill your heart with the Word – Study and memorize Scripture.
  2. Speak the Word often – Say it aloud until it becomes conviction.
  3. Ponder the Word daily – Think deeply until light comes.
  4. Obey the Word quickly – Do what you have read and believe.

When God’s Word fills your consciousness, you’ll walk in divine wisdom, prosperity, and peace.

Scripture:
Psalm 119:11

Unwavering Conformity | Day 3 | July 4, 2025

Houses of Prayer; Houses of Light In anticipation of temple construction, David offers a remarkable prayer, a prayer that serves as a template or model for each of us as God's stewards. The prophet Isaiah later refers to that very temple as God's 'house of prayer' (Isa 56:7). And David himself anticipates that reality, declaring in Psalm 18:6, 'In my distress I called to the Lord; I cried to my God for help. From his temple he heard my voice; my cry came before him, into his ears.' A house of prayer. In Psalm 18:28, David uses imagery that permeates Scripture, saying, 'My God turns my darkness into light.' An unmistakable message. A house of light. Pastor John Timmer relates a simple story about a house in need of light: “Once upon a time a man lived in a house without a window. Naturally, it was very dark inside his house. One day he said to himself, 'I'm sick and tired of living in a dark house. I want to get rid of the darkness. I want light i...

Unwavering Conformity | Day 2 | July 3, 2025

Living with the Consequences Repeated covenant-breaking has serious consequences. The flipside is that covenant-keeping has positive outcomes. Notice in this passage the central importance of Torah (law) and Israel's chronic recurrent problem of slipping back into all forms of idolatry. Modern Western society is permeated to its core with idolatry, with one particular ism extending its grasp beyond any other - materialism. Unchecked materialism has so infiltrated Christianity and other religious systems that it goes virtually unnoticed by the majority. Unless humanity, led by people of faith, can turn a corner quickly, the spiritual, interpersonal and societal consequences in today's interconnected world will hold us captive in ways ancient Israelites could have never conceived.  Following is a quotation from author, educator and environmentalist Bill McKibben's call for communities of faith to return God to the center of life: “Consumption is an issue uniquely suited for f...

Unwavering Conformity | Day 1 | July 2, 2025

  Equitable Distribution of Resources God told Moses that the promised land was to be distributed according to the relative size and needs of the various tribes: 'To a larger group give a larger inheritance, and to a smaller group a smaller one' (Nu 26:54). In this way, socioeconomic equity was ingrained in the DNA of Israel's agrarian economy. Biblical scholar Craig L. Blomberg observes, 'The ideal contrasts markedly with arrangements in other feudal kingdoms near Canaan in that day, in which by far the more common pattern was the concentration of vast tracts of land among the royal and aristocratic elites, leaving a majority of the people in considerable poverty.' Similarly, when we look to the New Testament, the book of Acts provides an outstanding example of how the equitable distribution of resources became an important characteristic of the early church (see Ac 2:42-47; 4:32-37). Today the same principle should govern our financial decisions. Second Corinthian...
