Psalm
1: 1 - 2
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.
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.
These
are some verses (above) in the Bible, that explains a person whose only
motivation is to please God.
This
is a person who takes their direction, only from God.
They
don’t listen to what the culture dictates, they only listen to God.
They
put into practice the study of, and the meditation of scripture.
We
can delight in the things of God.
Do
you delight in the things of God?
A
friend of mine in ministry, spoke to a man recently about some problems and
issues he was having in life.
His
first question, was a great one: “How often do you read the Bible?”
Answer: “Very rarely...”
Maybe
the reason we’re not getting the reaction we’d like from God, is because His
Word in no way motivates us?
Maybe
we’re trying to supply our own motivation?
If
you would take 5 minutes to read this devotional, and think on it, God might
just speak to you.
I
just heard a Presidential candidate this morning, say... “May God bless
America!”
I’ll
bet He actually would, if we made His Word (the Bible) a priority
again...
