RICK WARREN DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY 22ND JANUARY 2025.
If you want to know what God wants for your life, you’ll find the answer in the Bible. The Word of God is central to his will, and studying the Bible opens the door to incredible blessings.
The Bible says: “Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither—whatever they do prospers” (Psalm 1:1–3 NIV).
Biblical meditation isn’t about sitting silently or chanting, “Ommmmmm.” It’s about serious reflection. It involves reading a verse and then asking:
- What does this really mean?
- How can I apply this to my life?
- How can I live this out daily—at work or at home?
Meditating on God’s Word means taking time to think deeply about it and allowing it to shape your actions and decisions.
James gives us a clear process for this reflection: “But if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it” (James 1:25 NLT).
If you want God’s blessings, James outlines four steps:
- Look intently—Study the Bible deeply.
- Continue to do it—Stay consistent in your study.
- Don’t forget it—Remember what you’ve learned.
- Do it—Apply it to your life.
Looking intently means more than a casual read—it’s about digging into the Word. Not forgetting means committing it to memory. This is why we take notes during sermons. Research shows we forget 95 percent of what we hear within 72 hours. Writing things down helps us remember and apply God’s truth.
The Bible emphasizes this: Don’t just hear the Word—live it.
By studying, remembering, and applying God’s Word, you’ll experience the abundant blessings he has in store for your life. Whatever you do will prosper when you align your life with his Word.
