This state enables the Holy Spirit to reach out and communicate with the practitioner. Christians do this regularly sometimes reaching to six hours per day.

This is mostly done when they need an answer and help in making decisions. This is also done when the practitioner has a special request to God. This usually comes hand in hand when reading the Holy Scripture.

• Getting to know God.

Improving Relationship with God. Christian Meditation brings practitioners to a state wherein God can easily talk to them. In the process, they will be able to talk to God, tell Him how they feel, tell Him about their fears and aspirations in life. In turn, they will be able to feel God talking to them and guiding them in what to do. They will also be assured that the Holy Spirit is always with them and blessings await His faithful children.

Knowing more about Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ saved people from their sins. However, to do that, he had to come down from heaven and live as a human being. His life on earth is one of the most important things that Christians should know about, having Jesus Christ as one of the beliefs that sets Christianity apart from other religions.

Gratefulness

Giving thanks is another purpose of the Christian Meditation. Christians have a lot to thank God for and every day, more reasons are added. They use Christian Meditation to let God know how grateful they are of all the blessings and guidance that they receive.

The biggest reason for giving thanks to God is the fact that he sent His son to earth to save people from their sins.
