What Is Biblical Meditation?
Try to meditate by choosing a small portion of Scripture. Maybe it’s a single verse or single phrase. And then try these four steps:
- Read it slowly. Let it speak to you afresh and right where you are. Imagine God speaking directly to you—here and now.
- Reflect on it personally. This isn’t just an ancient writing. This is the living word, for you, today. So, let’s get curious. What’s God inviting you to notice?
- Respond to it prayerfully. Now, turn your reflection into prayer. Make it honest. Make it you. But submit your worries and concerns.
- Repeat this intentionally! God’s Word isn’t just information—it’s an invitation to know and enjoy Him more, right where you are. Wisdom and joy are available through meditating on Scripture! That’s meditation—letting God’s Word move from your head to your heart, and from your heart into your life. Pray through the passage. Talk to God about what you’re seeing and feeling. Ask Him to make His Word alive in you.
