Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Joshua 1:7-8 NIV

In Joshua’s day, if you wanted to meditate on the Word of God, then all you had was the “Book of the Law.” This is what Christian scholars call the “Pentateuch,” the first five books of the Old Testament written by Moses. In our day, of course, we have much more at our disposal for meditation: both Old and New Testaments. In each era, however, meditating on the Word of God leads to the same result: prosperity and success.

I will exalt You Lord for You lifted me out of the depths.. Psalm 30:1

Happy Sabbath and have a great day.
