Joy: Part 2 – The Delight of the Righteous
from Cross Church Winnipeg Sermon Podcast · host crosschurch
Meditation has more than one definition. The pagan’s idea of meditation is emptying one’s mind and then focusing on an object, a person, or an activity. God’s people have a very different understanding of this ancient practice. Mediation for a Christian is thinking about a passage of scripture and allowing the Holy Spirit to apply it to our lives. Joy always comes to those who love scripture and love to commune with Almighty God. Why meditate on God’s word? Because it is God’s Word! God speaks through His word. He speaks to all who hunger and thirst for truth. Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God. And so all who take the time to reverently reflect on what God says in His word will have utter satisfaction and joy.
