S. Psalm 1:2 “But they (those who do not follow the advice of the wicked) delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night.”
O. The Hebrew word for meditate (in this text) is “hagah” and it means to reflect, to moan, to mutter, to ponder, that is making quiet sounds like sighing. People would quietly repeat scriptures with a soft, droning sound. A Jewish prayer called “davening” comes from this. It is reciting, moaning, intense prayers, getting lost in communion with God while bowing or rocking.
A. I enjoy times of prayer and solitude - that is praying intense prayers to God. I will continue to pray with intensity observing 21 days of prayer in January and August of each year. I will continue this because I believe it brings so many of God’s blessings to us (peace of mind, clarity, confidence, boldness, empowerment, etc.)
P. Thank you Father for this word today and reminding me that you love and bless those who pray bold and intense prayers with and to you. Grant me strength, wisdom and endurance to continue this practice. In Jesus name.!
