The Righteous and the Wicked Contrasted

1.

Today's Passage: Psalm 1:1-6

Get to know your bible. It will become a good friend.

Or find the passage NASB version on Bible Gateway here.
Auf Deutsch - Hoffnung für Alle - Bible Gateway heir.
You can search for other versions there as well. Versions even in foreign languages.

Or, for your convenience I have typed the verses below from the
New Living Testament (NLT).

Thank You for meeting us, LORD.
We welcome you into this place.

1. Oh the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers.
2. But they delight in the law of the LORD, meditating on it day and night.
3. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do.
4. But not the wicked! They are like worthless chaff, scattered by the wind.
5. They will be condemned at the time of judgment. Sinners will have no place among the godly.
6. For the LORD watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.
Psalm 1:1-6 NLT

11th strategy.
Reading... Simple Act of Meditation

Take this time to read the passage one time through.
Then go back and read every verse separately.
After reading one verse just close your eyes and think about the words for a few seconds. When you are no longer considering the sweetness of God's word to you, move to the next verse.
Continue through the passage.
- Loving HIM is the goal.
- Getting to know HIM is the goal.
- Allowing Him to take your day and use you in this day is the goal.
- Finding the sweetness He desires to impart is the goal.
Thank God for coming and bringing his Holy Presence into your day.

The psalms are sweetness to my soul.
I remember my mom telling me when I was 16 to memorize Psalm 1 and it would be a light of comfort all of my life.
It has been.

But I memorized it from the NASB
How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
Nor stand in the path of sinners,
Nor sit in the seat of the scoffers!

But his delight is in the Law of the LORD and in His law He meditates day and night.

He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water.

And in whatever he does he prospers.

But the wicked are not so.
But they are like chaff which the wind drives away.

Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
Nor sinners in the Assembly of the righteous.
For the LORD knows the way of the righteous.
But the way of the wicked will perish.

Ohhhh how I needed this verse today.

I am like a tree firmly planted by streams of water.

In God's Word I do take delight

I do meditate on His Word.
His righteousness is mine.
I walk with A Wise husband and with friends of love and light.
I stand with Jesus Followers
And I sit with creative writers who are too busy creating works of art and building into the worlds around them than scoffing and being small minded people.

Ohhhhhhhh how blessed am I!
Well... I just found my blog topic for this week! Lol
