Meditation: Your way to true success by Chris Oyakhilome

"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" (Joshua 1:8)
Our opening verse gives us a
divine recipe for success. The Amplified version says: "This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe {and} do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely {and} have good success." Notice what it says "…you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success." But for this to happen, you must meditate on the Word.
A lifestyle of meditation on God's Word causes you to deal wisely in the affairs of life. You'll become circumspect and penetratingly perceptive; you'll have extraordinary amplitude of comprehension. The wisdom of God will function in you so much that when you make decisions or take actions on anything, it will be just right.
Learn to consciously meditate on Scriptures. As you ponder on, talk and shout God's Word in meditation, you're programming yourself for the upward and forward life, and your success will be apparent to all.
