Daily scripture readings and meditations
Introduction to daily scripture readings and meditations[Top] Some people like to enhance their daily meditation by reading scriptures. They find it inspirational, spiritual and it provides another concept for their mind to focus on thus removing ailments such as stress and anxiety. In the scriptures, meditation refers to careful, prayerful and deep thought. Reading the scriptures can naturally transcend into meditation upon individual verses as some of the text will raise questions or require further thought. Below is a meditative practice that the bible describes. Meditating on the scripture: Joshua 1:8 (NIV)Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; 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. Methods of meditating from the scriptures[Top] Start by relaxing, breath deep and ask for the guidance of god in your devotion. Allow your mind to be open and seek wisdom ad well as understanding from the scriptures. Choose the scripture you wish to read. People frequently can not decide what scripture they want to read and get frustrated. A simple approach is to start at the beginning of your bible and read a chapter every day. A second approach is to randomly open your bible to a page then read from there, this technique is called Ouija. How much of the scripture you want to read is entirely up to you. You can choose a partial verse or a whole bunch of verses. The advantage of meditating on shorter parts of the scripture is that you can memorize big amounts of the scripture rather quickly.
