The Lord Watches Over the Path of the Godly

Scripture: Psalms 1: 4-6

But not the wicked! They are like worthless chaff, scattered by the wind. They will be condemned at the time of judgment. Sinners will have no place among the godly. For the Lord watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.

Scripture Commentary: Associate with godly people who build you up in God’s Word.

We will come in contact with all types of people; some godly and some satanic. Who you befriend and follow determines not only where and how you spend your life here but also what happens after your human life ends.

Will your path lead to your destruction? Will you go to heaven or to hell? Do you surround yourself with people who worship God and the Son, or Satan and the unbelievers? Are those you hang with working to build you up with the Word of God or are they trying to tear down God’s Word?

The more we study and live in God’s Word, the more fruitful we become. Don’t allow those around you to ridicule God. Be discerning. A person of God will draw you closer to Him. Don’t be like the chaff that is blown by the wind and becomes dust. Be like the tree by the river, being fed on the Word of God.
