Christian Meditation for A Bigger Life with Pastor Dave Cover

This is Christian Meditation for A Bigger Life – a time for you to relax your body and refocus your mind to experience the reality of God’s presence. I’m Dave Cover. I want to help you with Christian meditation where you can break through all the distractions and experience God’s presence through biblically guided imagination. 

1 Kings 19:11-13 NIV

11 The LORD said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the LORD, for the LORD is about to pass by.” Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. 12 After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. 13 When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face….

God’s native language is a whisper, and a whisper is hard to hear and easy to ignore. And if your life is constantly full of noise, you will completely miss it (see Tyler Staton, The Familiar Stranger).

 People often say, “Why doesn’t God make himself more real to me?” What if God IS revealing himself to you far more than you realize? What if the majority of the times God was revealing himself to you in your life up till now were missed connections because of all the noise and you never stopped to listen?

Romans 8:26 (NIV)

“…The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.”

Not all prayer has to have words. Sometimes we just need to quiet ourselves before God. “Be still and know that I am God” (Psa 46:10). And just be cognizant that the Spirit of God is interceding for us even without words.
