Psalm 1:1 (NKJV) 1 Blessed 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;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Most of us want to know how to be blessed by God. It’s something that many of us spend a lot of time and effort on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We read lots of books. We watch lots of videos. We dig through God’s word. How do we live a blessed life?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Contrary to what many want, it doesn’t happen with the snap of a finger.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Being blessed by God involves steps. And Psalm 1:1 gives us the first set of those steps.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Before we can expect God to bless our lives, we need to heed His instruction and start doing those things that He wants us to do.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Do not walk in the counsel of the ungodly. We can’t walk by the advice of, or in the steps of the ungodly; those who walk contrary to God’s ways.<\/li>\n
  2. Don’t stand in the path of sinners. God gives us two paths to choose from. We need to choose the path of righteousness, not the path of sin and its ways.<\/li>\n
  3. We can’t sit in the seat of the scornful. It benefits us not to follow the ways of contempt, mockery, contemptuousness or ridicule.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    So, there you have it. God says that if we will avoid these things, He will bless us.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    And, as we continue to follow Him and walk in His ways, our lives will continue to be blessed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Remember, being blessed by God doesn’t just happen. It comes when we obey God on a continuous basis and do the things He tells us to do.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
