Joshua 1:8 (NAS)
This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have success.

Joshua 1:8 (NIVUS)
Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.

Adonai has given us His Law, His Word, for our instruction and direction. His words, like arrows, hit the mark to teach and instruct us in His ways. His words, like rain, are available to the just as well as the unjust.

Continue to speak His words to others and to yourself. Do not remove them from your speech or depart from their teachings! Utter them aloud as a roar or in whispers and murmurs. Meditate on, muse over, and imagine what God's word can do in your life. In the morning, in the evening, or throughout the day, let His words be what you feast on continually!

Keep and treasure His words in your memory. They will guard, protect, watch over, and save you. Observe them and celebrate them! Do what they say and they will produce what God wants in your life. Act upon and attend to everything that the Lord has written, everything He has recorded and decreed.

As you act on the Word, you will advance and make progress; you will prosper and succeed. No matter where your way goes as you tread along, you will find profit and prosperity. The Lord will give you insight and comprehension for whatever you face. His word will cause you to act wisely and prudently. And you will be successful!
