Scriptural Meditation
(Excerpt from Gloria Coleman’s book
“Daily Scripture Reading and Meditation"
 
What Is Scripture Meditation? The Bible tells us in Psalm 1: 2-3 that the person who delights in God’s Word and meditates on that word day and night will be ever green all year round and whatever that person does will prosper.

You may be asking the question I asked for years – What is scriptural meditation?

One of the Hebrew words used in the bible for meditate is “hagah” and it means to murmur (in pleasure or anger); to ponder, mutter, roar, speak, study, talk, utter. Scripture meditation therefore is when you speak God’s Word to yourself over and over again, think on it, pray it and mutter it.

Allow God’s Word to fill your heart and mind. Think on the scripture you have chosen to meditate on and ponder it in your heart. Soon the Holy Spirit will bring you revelation on that Word and make that Word effectual in your life.

As you continue to meditate, faith will rise up in your heart because you will keep on hearing (yourself murmur) the Word. Suddenly the Word will become life to you and health to all your flesh.
