Psalm 1
1Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of
mockers. 2But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. 3He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit
in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.

Psalm 1
4 Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away. 5 Therefore
the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. 6 For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the
way of the wicked will perish.

Psalm 1
God looks at our hearts and sees only two types of people: Vs 1-3 : the Righteous Vs 4-6 : the Wicked
Only two ways of life: Narrow way that leads to life Broad way that leads to destruction
The promises of Psalms ONLY apply to those who belong to God.

The Righteous
Blessed means Congratulations, this is the life most worth living.
The secret : saying ‘No’ to the world.
3 ways the Righteous say ‘No’ Where they Step Where they Stand Where they Sit
![Page 7: Psalm 1 17th July 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558caa54d8b42a58388b46d4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
(1) Where They Step
Concerned with advice on morality, integrity and upright behaviour.
Do NOT follow advice of the ungodly.
GO to godly people for advice.
![Page 8: Psalm 1 17th July 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558caa54d8b42a58388b46d4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
(2) Where They Stand
Does not hang around with ungodly people.
Keeping bad company will draw you away from God.
![Page 9: Psalm 1 17th July 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558caa54d8b42a58388b46d4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
(3) Where They Sit
Sitting with mockers means further step of involvement with a godless society.
Mockers are those who: Mock at God Scoff at Him Profane His Name Swear at God
![Page 10: Psalm 1 17th July 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558caa54d8b42a58388b46d4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Righteous
Delight in the Word of God.
Draw instruction from God’s Word. Tells us our destiny and purpose in life.
Like a flourishing tree by the water’s edge – strong, healthy and always fruitful.
Fruit of the Spirit – Galatians 5.
![Page 11: Psalm 1 17th July 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558caa54d8b42a58388b46d4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What You Do Will Prosper
NOT promising successful career or financial fortune. Something greater.
Many people waste their lives chasing after things of no lasting value.
What you do will have lasting value, eternal significance.
Your life will count in the Kingdom of God for all eternity.
![Page 12: Psalm 1 17th July 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558caa54d8b42a58388b46d4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Wicked
Persons who: Ignore God Do not acknowledge God Live without God.
Like chaff (useless part of the grain) to be burned up.
Their lives are of no lasting value.
Cannot stand with God’s people.
![Page 13: Psalm 1 17th July 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558caa54d8b42a58388b46d4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Two Ways
God watches over the Way of the Righteous. God knows the Righteous.
God does NOT know the Way of the Wicked. God does NOT know the Wicked.

Prayer of Repentance
Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner. I have been walking in the way of the
wicked. I know that only You can save me, Jesus. I repent of all my sins and I ask you to wash away all my sins. I receive you as
my Lord and Saviour. Change and transform me to be more like You. I ask that You give to me your Holy Spirit and I thank
You that You have given me eternal life today. In Jesus’ Name I pray. Amen
