Apply scripture in your life
Level 1: Read the scripture and repeat. This proves you can read and talk.
Level 2: Comprehend the context of the Word. Why it was spoken? Meditate on the verses and note your own reaction.
Level 3: Meditate on the Word and ask the Holy Spirit how it applies to you. It may not apply to your life now, but it could have in the past or will sometime in the future.
Level 4: Have the Word so engrained in your spirit that you live it.
Practical application Ps 103
Level 1: He heals all my diseases. You could just repeat it over and over and still not be healed.
Level 2: Realize this is #2 of 5 benefits of God’s blessing. #1 says He forgives your sin. Perhaps you need to repent to be forgiven before #2 healing can happen.
Level 3: Think about all 5 benefits. Have you repented to be forgiven so you can be healed and redeemed from the pit. The crown of love and compassion alights when you are out of the pit of darkness. You will be filled with good things when you are ready to receive them.
Level 4: After passing through the 5 benefits, your youth will be renewed as an eagle’s. Are you ready to soar above your worldly cares?
