Meditate to Elevate Day 4: I am a well watered Garden
“And the Lord shall guide you continually and satisfy you in drought and in dry places and make strong your bones. And you shall be like a watered garden and like a spring of water whose waters fail not.”
Isaiah 58:11 AMPC
In most urban cities, parks are created to allow busy city dwellers to have a place to unwind and appreciate nature. Nature gives us a hint of the way God designed our environment to be - free from anxiety, serene and harmonious. This is the reason the environment that God placed Adam in was a garden - and not just any garden but the Garden of Eden. The word “Eden” means “Delight” therefore this means that the primary environment God desires around your life is that of a Garden of Delight! You are His Garden of Delight!
Let’s meditate to elevate
Step into the theatre of your life and imagine on the screen that you are standing in front of a garden and emblazoned across the top of the gate leading to the garden are the words: “The Garden of Delight” and as you step in through the gates, you immediately felt peace. Looking ahead of you, you saw rows and rows of well manicured and beautifully scented flowers and plants arranged in a fashion that seemed to tell a story of love. You immediately sensed this is a garden where restoration can happen and a safe haven for those who needs to escape the hazards of life. It is a place where lives can be rebuilt. As you walk further down, appreciating this beautiful garden, you find yourself drawn to a fountain at the centre of the garden. The water coming from this garden look exquisite and seemed to flow to every inch of the garden providing the needed nutrients to the plants. As you look closer, the foutain seemed to have a source that never runs dry. So amazed by what you saw, you began to feel elated. As you turned, you saw a Gardener, prunning the garden and removing weeds and unwanted elements to keep the garden as a safe haven that it was designed to be.
As you look at the Gardener closely, you realised He is God and He smiled at you and said: "Child, you are this Garden, my Garden of Delight. You are a well watered Garden producing fruit in every season and a safe haven for the world"
Notice how you feel as the Gardener speaks to you? Hold that feeling then:
Mutter these words under your breath:
“I am a weel watered Garden, a garden of delight. I am God's delight and He is my Source that never runs dry"
Action: What actions do you need to take today to cooperate with God knowing fully well that He is your Source that never runs dry.
