0:00.0	The Bible is a living book.
0:08.0	As we begin to live in the Bible each day, we find that the Bible begins to live in us.
0:15.0	Join Scott Pauli as we study simple principles for getting into God's word and ask the Lord to make his truth alive in you today.
0:23.6	Does God have your attention today? Are you giving attention to the Word of God? We've been studying
0:41.5	this for the last several Bible studies together and today we conclude this particular study.
0:48.4	We've been talking a great deal about our meditating in the Word of God and I can't think of a
0:52.6	better place to conclude this particular study than in the Psalm of God. And I can't think of a better place to conclude this particular study
0:55.3	than in the Psalm of the Scriptures. Now, we were in Psalm 1 last time, but I want you to come

1:39.2	these words. Oh, how love I thy law. It is my meditation all the day.
1:46.6	Thou, through thy commandments, has made me wiser than mine enemies, for they are ever with me.
1:52.2	I have more understanding than all my teachers, for thy testimonies are my meditation.
1:58.6	Did you hear the word, twice given?
2:03.1	He said, it is my meditation all the day,
2:08.7	and then he says, thy testimonies are my meditation. I'm going to talk to you today about a new dimension for your devotional life, a new dimension. You see, I believe that meditation is what
2:14.8	enlarges our devotional life. It's what makes it more than a routine,
2:19.7	more than a rut, more than the monotony, more than just this system that we're in. It opens it up to us.
2:26.9	It opens the scriptures to us. You know, most people talk about three dimensions, but our God
