Psalms 1:1

 

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sixtieth in the seat of the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditates day and night.

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.

4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Verse !

What is the counsel of the ungodly?

The blessed man does not walk “in the counsel of the ungodly.” In the original Hebrew, the word translated “counsel” is a noun meaning “something that provides direction or advice as to a decision or course of action.” The “ungodly” are wicked people, sinners, and those characterized by godlessness.

As Christians, we must choose to live our lives by following the examples of Jesus and His Word that He has given us. If we stay in our sinful nature without repentance, we are choosing the path of the wicked. (My thoughts)

Thanks for coming by today, Friends. Tomorrow we will find out more about how not to walk in the counsel of the ungodly.

God bless!
