Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.
Psalm 1
Things he doesn’t do:
He does not follow the counsel of the wicked
He deos not imulate the ways of sinners
He does not follow the examples of scoffers
Things he does:
He delights in the word of God
He meditates on the word of God
What are the visible results of his choices:
He is well norished spiritually
He bears all the spiritual fruits
He is fresh and never butned out
He prospers in whatever he does
He receives praise from his maker
He has fellowship with the father
He is guided by His maker
There are people all around us who refuse to live by the covenant God provided for us, but the godly person refuses to follow the moral orientation of such people’s lifestyle. Because the lifestyle of wicked, scoffing, sinners will stop you from moving forward to sitting in sin.
