AUGUST PROPHETIC FOCUS:
(The Winning Wisdom – Prov 4:7)
Thursday, 20th August 2026
By Pst Israel Olorunfemi
ANCHOR SCRIPTURE:
“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success” (Joshua 1:8)
Another way to access the Wisdom of God is through meditation.
Meditation is taking time to think deeply about God’s Word and what He is saying concerning a particular situation. It is reasoning with God through His Word until you understand what to do. Most times, the answer we need is already in the Scriptures, but we may not see it until we take time to think about what we have read or heard.
Meditation is more than reading a Bible verse and moving on. It is reading the Word, thinking about it, asking questions, and allowing it to speak to your situation. As you continue to meditate, the Word becomes clearer, and you begin to see the right way to respond to the issues of life.
This is why God told Joshua to meditate on the Word day and night. He didn’t just tell him to read it. He told him to meditate on it “that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein.” In other words, meditation helps you understand the Word well enough to put it to work.
So, beloved, when you are faced with a difficult situation and you need wisdom, don’t be too quick to look everywhere else for answers. Take the matter to God’s Word. Find what the Bible says about it, think deeply about it, and ask the Holy Spirit to help you understand how to apply it.
Take one Bible verse today. Read it slowly and severally. Think about what it means, ask God what He wants you to learn from it, and look for how you can apply it to your present situation. As you meditate on the Word, you will begin to see the wisdom you need for the next step.
PROPHETIC PRAYER:
My prayer is that God’s Word be clear to you, and to know how to apply it to your life and situation, in Jesus name.
