Of those 50 references in Scripture, we're, we're told to meditate on God's wondrous works, to meditate on the law meaning scripture, his word. We're told to meditate on these things as, as Paul said to, to Timothy. Right. That's the last time meditates mentioned in the Bible. And what are these, these things? It's the word of faith. It's scripture itself. It's that sound doctrine that strengthens your inner man. Right. But, but it says it's mentioned as early as in Genesis. Yeah, Genesis 24 is the first time.
