There are many verses in the Bible about delighting in and meditating on the word of God. The Lord knows how much you’re going to face and wants you to be equipped to deal with each trial, storm and attack. He also wants you to know just how much He loves you and how great is His faithfulness towards you. He wants you to find joy and fulfillment in His word. It’s often referred to as “The Law” because that’s what the Torah is called, but it’s not just about rules at all! It’s about God’s work to save us.
“Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do.” Psalms 1:1-3
The Lord wants you to be joyful and fulfilled even in this life, so fill your mind with His word so that you will be ready when the attacks against your joy and peace come.
