Meditation Theater

“Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.”
Psalm 5:1

Meditation is simply described as “focused or directed thought or contemplation.”

Imagine that your mind is a theater and your meditations are playing on the movie screen.
Now picture yourself loading the film reels and projecting them onto the screen. You can project whatever you want, after all it’s your mind and your movie theater.

If Jesus Christ were to walk in and sit down in the middle of your meditations and watch your film, would He APPROVE or DISAPPROVE of what’s on the screen?

If you’re actively loading the reels of your mind with junk to meditate on, then you’re setting yourself up for failure.

“Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.” Isaiah 59:1-2

Want God to hear you?
Then be careful that your meditations are righteous so that your prayers will be honest.
If you have wicked imaginations and try to mask them with glowing words, God will not be fooled.

The Lord is watching your film today. (Proverbs 15:3)
Load the film reels of your mind with His Word. (Psalm 119:11)

Keep your armor on.
