The word study in Pslam 1:2 has also been translated “meditate.” הגה hâghâh (Strong’s Concordance) means to "to moan, mutter, muse, meditate, or mourn," neatly alliterating 5 M words in English and can also extend to "groaning and growling" as of a lion over its prey (Isaiah 31:4). But how does one study or meditate on the Law of the Lord?

From the Joyful Journey book:
If you grew up in a church where you were taught that God would only speak through the Bible, it can be very challenging for you to venture into writing down your impression of God outside of what the Bible says exactly. In this case feel free to write down the Bible verses as God's response to you. Afterwards, run a simple test by asking yourself, “Does this feel and sound and feel like Jesus is right here next to me, speaking to me? If your answer is “Yes,” then great. If your answer is “No” or “I am not sure,” read the verses aloud to yourself. Is Jesus right next to you personally speaking the Bible verses as God's tender and caring response to you? Afterwards, personalize and write the verses in a conversational way. See if this gives you a sense that God personally spoke to you…. The value of writing down God's written words in a conversational and personal way is to increase our attachment with God.

Session A: Focus on joyful memories or drift back and celebrate moments of appreciation. Note how your body feels as you visit these memories: Can you catch yourself smiling, laughing? Are you relaxing?

From the Joyful Journey book:
Immanuel journaling is a tool that helps us to remain in Him. As we have shared Immanuel journaling one-on-one, in small groups and at conferences, we have seen the Father use this tool to help people live knowing that we are in Christ and Christ is in us -- consciously growing in the awareness of God's presence. This gives us the capacity to love others because we know His love is continuously available. We can then take the energy we spent worrying and direct it to loving God, loving people and helping them know God. This becomes possible because we learn through experience that we are loved and will be taken care of by God.

From the Joyful Journey book:
Jesus, Immanuel (God with us), was born as a baby to live His life with people on Earth. Jesus shows us what it is like to live life with God. Bible scholars call this the “Immanuel principle of life.…” Sometimes we fail to enjoy living in an Immanuel reality due to a distorted perception of God's character. God reveals to us that He is a good God through His word and the life of Jesus. God is always glad to be with us.
