VISIBLE PROGRESS BY THE WORD
Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all— 1 Timothy 4:15
Meditation on God's word ought to be your whole-hearted commitment. Meditation is God's designed pathway for your advancement in life. It is the way you behold God's glory in the mirror of His word. Do you know God wants your life to testify of His goodness? He wants your profiting or progress to be apparent, evident before all. The Lord Jesus Christ in Mathew 5:15 said, "Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; nor it gives light unto all that are in the house". God did not plan to hide you but rather to show you as His testimonial to the world. Let me give you an example of pregnancy. For the first few days or months, people can't notice it but as time passes it can't be hidden to the public. It becomes conspicuously visible. This example mirrors the kind of transformation that happens when you give yourself wholly and continually to meditation on God's word. The word "appear" in the theme scripture is from a Greek word Phaneros which means making manifest, or to be made public. In this year of manifesting, God is bringing you to the public, to the limelight where you can't be ignored. It's all for His glory.
It's God's plan that you have remarkable success where the beauty of God cannot be hidden. That is why you must be intentionally committed to meditating on God's word. Genesis 24:63 tells us that Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the evening tide. This was an intentional move by Isaac. You can schedule and plan your special times of meditation on God's word and this devotional is such a tool to help you in that. The psalmists said, "My eyes stay open through the night, the watches of the night that I may meditate on your promises" (Psalms 119:148 NIV).
This is a deep commitment towards meditation. Be deliberate about your meditation on God's word and you will always experience progress that will appear to all in all areas of life. If you haven't seen progress in a certain area of your life, intentionally get into a meditation therapy with the word that relates to that area. You will surely see changes and those around you will take notice of the positive changes in your life. God's beauty and faithfulness will be seen and His name will be glorified.
