Episode 900, The Lord Will Be Your Confidence.

A guided Christian meditation on Proverbs 3, verses 24-28.

I release new episodes each week and I do two on the same scripture each week.

Welcome back to the Christian Meditation Podcast and the Recenter with Christ app, episode 899, a free-form Christian meditation on Proverbs chapter 3, verses 19 through 23.

My name is Chaplain Jarrett, and I do this podcast to help you find more peace by connecting with the true source of peace, who is Jesus Christ.

Each week, I do two different styles of meditation, and I release them on late Saturday night, early Sunday morning, and I try to do that so that you can connect with the Lord.

There are two different styles.

One of them is open form, like this one, brief relaxation followed by a reading from Scripture and a period for you to pray, ponder, and meditate on the Word of the Lord.

And the other one has more guidance and is based on a centuries-old Christian meditation style called Lectio Divina.

For now, though, let us dedicate this time to the Lord.

Almighty God, please guide us and protect us as we meditate on your Word here today.

But let's dedicate this time to the Lord.

Almighty God, guide us and protect us as we meditate on your word.

Right now, let's join Kenneth Hagin for today's message.

Meditate in the word of God.

Meditate means to think about it over and over and over and over and over and over again.

You know what some people call studying the word? They grab the Bible in the morning time on the run while they're swigging coffee as they run out the door and they read a proverb and say, thank you Lord for a good day and they're gone.

Took every minute of three minutes and seven seconds.

So here's how AI defined the term.

Meditate is a mental practice of focusing attention or breathing to calm the mind and reach a higher state of awareness.

Now, I have to tell you something.

As somebody who loves the Word of God, if I read that, I would go, yep, not touching that with a 10-foot pole because I'm not interested in reaching a higher state of awareness.

Welcome back to the Christian Meditation Podcast and the Re-Center with Christ app, episode 895.

A free-form Christian meditation on Proverbs chapter 3, verses 9 through 12.

My name is Chaplain Jared, and I do this podcast to help you find more peace in your life by connecting with the true source of peace, who is Jesus Christ.

I try to do that through two different styles of meditation that I do on the same scripture each week.

But you've been working in this kind of area of worship.

Christian meditation maybe, and it's therapeutic kind of application.

Could you kind of talk about that a little bit? How do you see, you were talking about Buddhist mindfulness.

How is that different than Christian meditation? And use whatever words you would use.

Those are just the words I'm using.

Yeah, so in Buddhism, there's, of course, mindfulness meditation, which is an insight meditation.
