September 30 A Consistent Walk - Psalm 1:1-3
"Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked nor sit in the seat of scoffers but his delight is in the law of the Lord and on his law he meditates day and night . He is like a tree planted by stream of water, that yields it's fruit in its season and it's leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers."
Life is hard. It is hard to stay on track. There are temptations every where we go. These verses tell us how
to be consistent in our Walk. It gives us the promise of being blessed and to prosper in all we do. We can not do it alone.
We need Jesus and the way to find Jesus is through His Word. The Bible. To fall in love, you have to spend time with the one that you fall in love with. The sames goes with falling in love with Jesus. Jesus is the Word. To fall in love with Jesus, fall in love with His word. Delight in it. Mediate on it day and night. Read, study, memorize and mediate on the precious Word of God. This is the way to maintaining a consist walk that pleases the Father.
I was heart broken when I recently heard that a very small percent of people who go to church, read the Bible between Sundays. Seems to me they must be starving if they are not getting fed except on Sundays.
There is a difference in reading a chapter because you know you should and digging in the word to find the hidden treasures. Pray for a real thirst for the word, where you can not wait for the next opportunity to open the Book. There really is a difference Pray for all of us to spend more time reading and studying the Bible. The more time you spend in the word, the more time you want to spend time in it. Then you delight in the Word and can not wait to have quiet time with God.
Your walk talks
Your talk talks
but your walk talks
louder than you talk talks
