Psalm 1 gives us several characteristics of the " Blessed Man ".
Psa 1:1 ¶ Blessed [is] the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
1. He is separated from the world. He will not get his counsel from the world,
but from God and his Word.
2. The blessed man is saturated with the Word of God. verse 2
Psa 1:2 But his delight [is] in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
He reads it daily and meditates in it day and night. He memorizes it and
finds his delight there.
3. The blessed man is situated by the waters. vs 3
Psa 1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
He puts himself in the house of God where he will be nourished spiritually. God protects, prunes and guards him.
The ungodly are not so as we are told in verse 4. I am thankful to be a blessed woman today and will strive to remain that way!
Today may we each be separated from the world, saturated in the Word and situated by the Waters.
