Topic: Meditate To Soak In The Presence Of God

When you meditate, use a focus verse of a few words. "The lord is my shepherd." is an example. Maybe you want to use one or two words. As you meditate, repeat the words as you breathe out and you voluntarily reduce your breathing rate. As you practice your meditation, you will notice mental chatter, thought bombardment, and thought distractions. You will notice your thoughts going in different directions. However, do not evaluate your thought patterns, just observe them and let them go. During meditation, your thought patterns do not matter. Do not try to force thoughts or thought patterns out of your mind. Instead, dismiss your thoughts and thought patterns by focusing on your focus word. By using this technique, you will quickly learn to control your mind through meditation. You will experience a peace you may never have experienced before. When your mind starts raging with negative thoughts, you can meditate the negative thoughts away. You can focus your mind for healing, rest, and living in the presence of God. After 10 or 20 minutes of meditation, picture yourself sitting next to Jesus. Also, picture whatever problem, issue, or obstacle you have in your life as a symbol of some kind. Next, imagine your life and your body is being infused with the miraculous healing power of Jesus. In addition, picture Jesus sitting or standing next to you. Picture Him pouring His power over you. Picture Him erasing your symbol of your problem, issue, or obstacle. As a result of Christ's presence, picture all the positive people in your life working in a miraculous way. As a result of Christ's presence, picture all of the positive influences in your life working in a powerful way for your betterment. End your meditation session by picturing yourself, your body, and your life being full of His radiant love. Picture yourself smiling and happy to be alive. Some persons of a skeptical mind call meditation exercise foolishness. However, these people are also the sick ones, unproductive ones, and the ones who lose the battle in the spiritual war in which we are all engaged.
