About this Episode
In this sermon Pastor Keith explains from Psalm 1 that the life of a godly person is a focused life that has it’s direction from God’s word, delight in God’s word and dominating influence from God’s word.
Biblical meditation is an important element on the path of the godly.
Here are a few ways biblical mediation is defined:
Meditation is “deep thinking on the truths and spiritual realities revealed in Scripture for the purposes of understanding, application, and prayer” Donald Whitney, Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life
Meditation is the activity of calling to mind, and thinking over, and dwelling on, and applying to oneself, the various things that one knows about the works and ways and purposes and promises of God. It is the activity of holy thought, consciously performed in the presence of God, under the eye of God, by the help of God, as a means of communion with God. J.I. Packer, Knowing God
Those who have deep roots in their relationship with God have learned the practice of biblical meditation. They are like a tree that is planted and rooted by streams of water.
