FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong>\u00a0Gain from the blessings of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Psalm 1<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three ways to gain the blessing of God are rooted in:
Walking, Standing, and Sitting.
The question is, how are you walking, where are you standing or sitting in your way of living?
Psalm 1:1<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0records,\u00a0\u201cBlessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0
WALKING
Walking in the way of righteousness should not be walking in the counsel of the ungodly.\u00a0
Ungodly do not accept God, answers as wicked do not conform to religious tenets, but aligns with sin ways of life.
Ungodly will counsel or lead man to live a life that does not consider right doing before God.
Who is it that counsels you?
Are you a believer receiving counsels from an unbeliever?
When a believer begins to receive counsel from an ungodly one, walking astray from the blessings of God becomes inevitable.
Do not walk in the counsel of ungodly that will direct you outside the path of God.\u00a0Proverbs 3:6\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>admonishes,\u00a0\u201cIn all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>
With the desire to experience the blessing of God, listen to the word of God as a warning. Take your counsel seriously to set you up for the glory of God.
STANDING:
Standing in the path of the sinner is evidence of taking to the same position as a sinner.\u00a0
When a believer begins to endure or tolerate (pacifying) the act of wicked way of life, it becomes evident that such a believer is not standing for God, not living right before God.
Standing in the path of righteousness will stand out, upholding the way of life that glorifies the name of God.
One that stands in awe of the word of God is with the character of righteousness and counts before God.
Is your standing found with an association that only progresses the testimony of God?\u00a0
Are you taking a stand that depends and rests on God in the face of challenging trouble?
As a believer, the word of God demands to ponder what to stand for in the path of life. The walk leads to what one stands for, not hidden from God.\u00a0Proverbs 5:21\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>points out,\u00a0“For the ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord, And He ponders all his paths.”<\/em><\/strong>
How are you standing before God?
How one stands and walks for God is the determinant of where one takes a sitting before God.
SITTING:
Sitting in the seat of scornful will eventually embrace the evil way of life. A believer that takes a sitting position of righteousness must hate evil. Proverbs states,\u00a0\u201c\u2026the fear of the Lord is to hate evil\u2026\u201d (Proverbs 8:13).\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>In the journey of life, avoid taking a seat that is not acceptable before God.
The blessings of God are obtainable by your walk, stand, and sit identified above.\u00a0
Do not compromise the word of God but live life to claim the blessings of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
