1 Blessed is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
3 He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.
4 The ungodly are not so,
But are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,
Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous,
But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
From our Point Man book discussion last night. We can either be anorexic Christians, bulimic Christians or Christians made of giant oaks with a large, stable and developed root system to support us no matter the weather of life. Anorexic Christians don’t bother to read the Bible and are starved from God’s word. Bulimic Christians read the Bible, go to church, but don’t do anything with it, they just purge the Word right back out. Secret is to read the Bible every day, to feed and develop those strong roots in the Word, then as a great oak tree, we can weather all storms that come through in life.
Satan will fight against this daily renewal of your mind, spirit and faith. He will do anything to prevent the development of deep roots in the faith. It is critical fight on and continue to study the Word, meditate on its inspired passages, and build a force strong enough to withstand all the assaults of the evil one.
