| Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly…but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His law he meditates day and night. |
| Psalm 1:1–2 |

Walk In God’s Wisdom | |
The people of the world are
crying out for true wisdom (that can only come from the Lord). Just look
at the constant demand for self-help books. But what we need is not
more “self-help.” What we need is the Lord’s help! So we should instead
read books that are written by Spirit-filled believers and Christian
leaders who encourage you to look to Jesus for wisdom and not to man or
self.
Psalm 1:1 tells us this from the start: “Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly.” This means that there is counsel in human wisdom. But the man who does not
walk according to the wisdom of the world is the man who is blessed! At
the same time, if his delight is in Jesus, and he meditates on Jesus
day and night, Psalm 1:3 says, “He shall be like a tree planted by the
rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf
also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper.”
My friend, make a decision to
walk in the counsel of the godly and not in the counsel of the world,
and you will see whatever you do prosper. God has raised up men and
women who are established in the truths of the new covenant, and who
will help you to keep your eyes on Jesus. In Him you will find all the
wisdom that pertains to life. The Bible tells us that in Him “are hidden
all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge” (Colossians 2:2–3), for your
success. So keep looking to Jesus. Draw on His divine wisdom and see
the difference it will make to your life!
