Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers. Psalm 1:1
Did you know that as you run your race to win you have to keep looking to the cross and avoid the pull of this world to drag you into the lusts of this world? As this verse indicates it is essential you don’t follow the path of the wicked.
The Holy Spirit living inside of you convicts of sin and can let you know when you need to run far and fast away from something. Some of you may know others who have strayed from the truth as they listened to captivating voices sent by the evil one to try to destroy them. When you don’t study and read God’s word it can be very easy to follow enticing voices and be convinced they are right.
Is your delight in the law of the Lord and the scriptures or are you more delighted in the captivating voices and lies of the world? In order to recognize the truth you have to stay in the word. Where are your loyalties in life? Worldliness or Godliness?
PRAYER: Lord I love your word and I want to try on the path you have for me never turning to the right or left. Help me recognize evil and run from it. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
At our church today, we heard that we should always give God praise. We should also point to God when things happen in our lives and in the lives of those who are around us. Peace and blessings.
