[Jesus, Our Sabbath Rest E02] "Memorisation of the Word" by Apostle Russell Toohey
Description
In this sermon, Apostle Russell Toohey delves into the theme of finding rest through meditating on God's Word. The sermon opens by addressing the destructiveness of unresolved anger, noting that "unresolved, out of control anger is one of the most deadly destroyers of marriage and family". The core of the message focuses on the practice of meditating on scripture. This practice is rooted in the Hebrew tradition, where the word for "meditate," hagah, implies a vocalization or speaking of the words aloud to internalize them. This is contrasted with Eastern meditation, which is an inner journey to find one's center, while Christian meditation is "the concentration of the mind/heart upon an external Revelation."
The sermon also introduces Lectio Divina, a form of meditative prayer that involves:
- Silence: Preparing to communicate with God.
- Reading: Slowly reading a passage of Scripture aloud.
- Meditating: Chewing on the words and making connections.
- Prayer: Using the passage as an outline for prayer.
- Contemplation: Waiting in stillness for God to reveal how to apply the passage.
- Living it Out: Making notes on how to apply the passage to your life.
Ultimately, the message emphasizes the power of God's Word to bring rest and change history, just as it did for the young Samuel.
