August 1, 2025, Psalm 1:1-6
1 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;
2 but his delight is in the law of the Lord,
and on
his law he meditates day and night.
3 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.
4 The wicked are not so,
but are
like chaff that the wind drives away.
5 Therefore
the wicked will 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 wicked will perish.
Simply put, this Psalm is a wisdom psalm. It expresses
the way to happiness and how to live a happy life by experiencing God’s
holiness.
Throughout the Psalms, the authors will present us with
opportunities to show love for God through worship and joy. How are you
letting God’s Word penetrate your heart to allow you to experience
happiness/joy during good times and challenging times? How are you worshipping
through God’s Word?
