4 Memorising

To memorise is to store God’s Word in your mind for future use. Doing this has a way of changing your life subconsciously. Psalms 119:11 says: ‘Thy Word have I hid in mine heart that I might not sin against thee.’

The Word of God is the weapon with which you can fight the devil and every difficult situation or condition. Many times, when you find yourself at the battle front you might not have a Bible with you. It is the amount of God’s Word you have already committed to your heart that the Holy Spirit will reach out for, from your store, to defeat the enemy during temptations and attack. The Word of God is life. How much of God’s word you hide in your heart determines how much of God’s life is in you. How much of God’s life is on your inside determines how mush of God you carry on you.

The Word of God is the means by which you can renew your mind according to Romans 12:2. through storing God’s Word in your heart, you can begin to think God’s thoughts and see thongs through God’s eyes.

To memorise, read the verse aloud to yourself. Recite it one phrase at a time until the entire verse is committed to memory. You do yourself a world of good by taking pains to commit memory verse to the store of your heart. Like a few highly disciplined believers, you can go beyond this and commit whole passages and chapters of the Bible to memory, so that you become a walking, talking Bible.

5 Meditating

To meditate is to digest God’s Word. It is to move the Word of God from your head into your heart, making it a permanent part of your life. Joshua 1:8 says: ‘This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate 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.’

Meditation is paying attentions to God’s Word with the intention of putting it into practice. It means taking out some time to think upon a particular verse or passage, asking questions. Your mind should be open to the Holy Spirit for his guidance. Your focus should not be distracted. And in the process, the Lord could take you on a journey into revelations. Through meditation, you can receive the secrets of breakthrough, success, enduring peace, lasting joy and all-round blessedness.
