Meditation means many things to many people. They have their own way they get alone with the Lord. Some need special sanctioned off places. Others feel they have to sit in a certain place or a certain way. Some think that meditation is to acquire new doctrinal insights.

Meditation furnishes the mind somewhat with rest. It is the couch of the soul, it is the rest of the spirit. It is the rumination of the soul. Meditation takes in what was acquired by reading the word.

Meditation opens up the eyes of our understanding and we begin to see things we could never read about. Meditation is letting God reveal heavenly things to us and the Holy Spirit takes us higher and higher.

It also deepens our reverence for God in prayer. Prayer waits upon reverence. Where there is little reverence there is usually little prayer. To pray well one must be deeply reverent. But meditation upon the great truths and great works of God is essential to reverence.

Finally, we become sweetened by meditation of God. Like David who said, "My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the Lord." By the end of his life he was called "The sweet Psalmist of Israel."

"Prayer is the quiet, persistent living of our life of desire and faith in the presence of our God." ~ Andrew Murray
