Read Psalms 1:1-6
*Delight yourself in the Lord*
This Psalm begins with the word Blessed. And He blesses us so that we might be a blessing to others.
What you delight in is what will direct your life, so be careful with what you enjoy. A person who delights in the Law of the Lord (vs 2) meditates on it during the day. Meditation is to the soul what digestion is to the body.
The blessed person is a like a tree (vs 3). A tree has roots. The most important part of your life is your "root" system. Don't be like the ungodly who are like chaff (v.4). Chaff doesn't have roots. It is blown away by every wind that comes along. Your root system is important because it determines your nourishment. It also determines your stability and strength when the storm comes and the wind starts to blow. People can't see your root system but God can.
Praying and meditating on God's word will cause your roots to go down deep into His love.
*Prayer:*
Father, helps us to delight in your Word and feed on it. Rather than occasionally reading the Word, help us to meditate on it constantly. May your Word be a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. In Jesus Name I pray.
Amen !
