For many Christians, the quest for a deeper, more meaningful relationship with God can be a frustrating one. New commitments to pray and read the Bible more are often short-lived – the result of time constraints, unrelenting distractions, and an inner restlessness. Biblical Meditation: Deeping Our Awareness of God.
For the most part, the Church has sought to bring about spiritual growth in its members, through an endless array of activities, meetings, and programs. This has resulted in a culture of ‘busyness’ in our churches, where the focus has become one of ‘doing’ things for God rather than simply ‘being’ with Him. If we are honest, even despite the numerous good teachings and programs on offer, many Christians feel spiritually dry.
In our day, the need for every believer to connect with God in a way where their spirits are nourished and refreshed, has become all the more pressing. Yet, could it be that in our pursuit of an authentic and vibrant Christian experience, we have overlooked an approach to knowing God as we have always desired?
Jeremy Witherow believes this to be so. He is convinced that incorporating the ancient practice of ‘Christian Meditation’ into our spiritual lives can prove revolutionary – even life-changing!
This is where we approach Scripture in a contemplative way, and where the objective of our reading is ‘revelation’ rather than ‘information.’ All of this can be attained through a ‘four-step’ process known as Lectio Divina (Latin, “sacred reading”/“spiritual reading”).
Benefits of Christian Meditation include a deeper awareness of God’s presence, renewed communion with Him, sensitivity in hearing His voice, as well as a deeper immersion into the transforming power of God’s Word.
Learn how to build the simple practice of Christian Meditation into your spiritual life, and be lifted into new realms of intimacy and fruitfulness in your walk with God.
