"Blessed
is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the
way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in
the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he
shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his
fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth
shall prosper (Psalm 1:1-3)."
How prosperous do you want to be?
How glorious do you want your life to be? If you would delight yourself in the
Lord, and meditate on His words regularly or frequently, you will be like a tree
planted by the rivers of water! You will bring forth fruit in due season; your
leaves will not wither; and you will prosper in ALL things!
Isaiah 58:14 says, "Then shalt thou delight thyself in the
Lord; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed
thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the Lord hath
spoken it." You delight yourself in the Lord by joyfully acting on
the Word and living by it!
Meditation on the Word is God’s
recipe for success. It’s the secret to a victorious, successful, struggle-free
life and extraordinary prosperity. The Apostle Paul instructed Timothy to give
himself totally to the Word: "Meditate upon these things; give
thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all" (1
Timothy 4:15). He knew if he meditated on the Word long enough, the
necessary result would be that his profiting—his prosperity and increase—would
appear to all men.
The man Isaac was one of those in
the Bible who walked in tremendous prosperity. But when you study his life, you
would discover he was a spiritually minded man who spent a great deal of time
meditating. The Bible says Isaac went out to the field in the evening to
meditate (Genesis 24:63). That was the secret behind his prosperity. Meditation
will give you good success! It will make you wise in your dealings in business,
finances, family, relationships, and other areas of life.
