God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Here are a few suggestions to help you get started [with Bible meditation]. 1. Prepare. Issues of posture, time and place are secondary, but not unimportant. The only rule would be: do whatever is most conducive to concentration. 2. Peruse. Read, repeat the reading, write it out, then re-write it. 3. Picture. Apply your imagination and senses to the truth of the text. Envision yourself personally engaged in the relationship or encounter or experience of which the text speaks. 4. Ponder. Reflect on the truth of the Word; brood over the truth of the text; absorb it, soak it in, as you turn it over in your mind. 5. Pray. At some point take the truth as the Holy Spirit has illuminated it and pray it back to God whether in petition, thanksgiving, or intercession. 6. Personalize. Where possible, according to sound principles of biblical interpretation, replace proper names and proper pronouns with your own name. 7. Praise. Worship the Lord for who He is and what He has done and how it has been revealed in Scripture. 8. Practice. Commit yourself to doing what the Word commands. The aim of meditation is moral transformation.

As difficult as it might be, the early church had far more to work through than what music would be sung. Their struggles and successes are instructive to us who may have less to work through than they did. It will be sad to face Christ in the future and say, “We could not be the glorious church you called us to be because we could not get together on the music.”
