*DAILY DEW 16/OCTOBER/2023* *THE SAFETY MEASURE OF REPETITION* _Key Bible Text:_ *"Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe."* (Philippians 3:1 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ When you bring back to your mouth the food particles you have already swallowed, you are said to have regurgitated. Pls don't feel irritated. When an animal, like ruminants regurgitate, there is however nothing out of place about it. "Ruminants regurgitate their food as a normal part of digestion." And the information continues, "During their idle time, they chew the regurgitated food (cud) and swallow it again, which increases digestibility by reducing particle size." This is actually something that explains what meditation does to knowledge assimilation, digestion and retention. This also explains why meditation leads to revelation, that is, a state of intense understanding of and insight into God's words with practical effects and relatable impact! Meditation, however, is not a one way practice. Most times we understand meditation to mean staying alone to ponder over a body of knowledge. While this is correct, it is not the only way of meditation. As a matter of fact, anytime the same body of knowledge is being repeated, there is a sense in which meditation is already taking place. When you sing a song repeatedly, there is a sense in which the truth contained therein is undergoing a meditation process in your mind, especially when you ponder on the words being sung. When you are listening to the same or similar message or even teaching it or discussing about it, you are actually regurgitating those body of knowledge and thereby enhancing comprehension and revelation. Never shy away from or get tired of hearing/teaching/discussing the same body of knowledge over and over again. That is the way of meditation. And that is the way of comprehension and revelation, needless to say, mastery. _MEDITATION:_ *Some of us learnt to listen to messages that blessed us till there was no edification left in the tapes. Lol. Of course, that's a figure of speech. But see, that's how to listen to teachings. We listen till we start quoting it verbatim. Once we remove laziness towards spiritual things from our lives, we make progress!!* -- Adebowale Ibukun Tosin *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_OCTOBER,2023* ❤ Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
