Exo Msg 57

1. Having a heart inclined unto the Word of God, we seek the Word, long for it, and hope in it.
2. To meditate on the Word of God is to enjoy it by musing upon it, chewing the cud.
3. When we chew, we shall spontaneously pray.
4. Musing is also enjoy His Word as His breath.
5. We muse upon the Word by talking to God, worshipping Him, enjoying Him, receiving grace from Him, and conversing with ourselves in the Lord's presence.
6. When we enter into God's Word, we see light.
7. Inwardly we have faculties created by God by which we can understand His Word, and outwardly we have the enjoyment and circumstances by which we are disciplined.
8. If we muse upon the Word, the enemy will be defeated, and we shall gather much spoil.
9. We should never separate the Lord's Word from the Lord Himself.
