Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.

Are YOU the Blessed Man the Psalmist have spoken about? 

The passage below is from the famous book of Psalm 1, please read through the passage and see if you are the man or woman the Psalmist have spoken of:

¹ Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of the sinners or sit in the seat of mockers,
² but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night.
³ He 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.

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.

Probably, you will say "yes", that is me or maybe no that is not me. But if you are, please encourage others by leaving a comment below of how God wonderfully bless you. But if you think you are not, I am glad to tell you that though this passage is a description of a blessed man, Psalm 1, is at the same time, a formula showing cause and effect and a key on how to become a blessed man. Imagine how everyone in the world looking and searching for a formula or a way to be successful in all aspects of life and sadly some find it in a wrong way.

Yesterday, I have posted about how important your mornings can be and how spending it with God makes a difference. In continuation, this biblical scripture pointed out how blessed a person can be if he or she delights himself in the Lord. Science have spoken of cause and effect so as the Bible. 

According to the Psalmist if you are the person who:

1. Does not walk in the counsel of the wicked.

2. Stand in the way of the sinner.

3. sit in the seat of the mocker. 

And if you:

4. Delight in the law of the Lord.

5. Meditating on it day and night.

Then you are,

1. Like a tree planted by streams of water, 

2.which yields its fruit in season
3. and whose leaf does not wither— 

4. whatever he does prospers.

If you have found a key to a treasure box or have found a map to a land with hidden treasure, will you ignore it or throw it away? Certainly not. You will try to open it and try to get the precious items on it. God's Word is a treasure box filled with precious jewels. His Words are perfect and is useful in our daily life. Making a man walk straighter. How wonderful and amazing to know that if we walk according to God, He will direct our ways and will be our supplication. And surely, if God blesses he adds no trouble to it. After reading, think for awhile and see if you are the person the Psalmist have spoken about. If not, read Psalm 1 again and do the EXPERIMENT of cause and effect:

Study Psalm 1 carefully. Try to carefully follow verses 1 and 2 for a week and see the effect.

PRAYER:

Dear God,

Thank you for this wonderful day you blessed me with. I am not sure if I am the man the Psalmist have spoken about to be blessed, but if you think I am not. Please show me your way so I can follow you and delight myself in you. And if I lack faith, let me experience you that I may believe. Thank you so much. In the mighty name of Jesus, I ask and pray. Amen.
