Follow After Righteousness

DAY 6 OF 7

Surrender To God’s Word.

“BLESSED (HAPPY, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes], nor stands [submissive and inactive] in the path where sinners walk, nor sits down [to relax and rest] where the scornful [and the mockers] gather. But his delight and desire are in the law of the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God) he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day and by night.” Psalm‬ ‭1:1-2‬ ‭AMPC‬‬

Don’t live in the counsel of the ungodly. Psalm 1:1 AMPC declares, “BLESSED (HAPPY, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes]” Pursue Righteousness and seek Christ. Choose not to perpetually live in the counsel of the ungodly. Choose not to pattern your steps after the unrighteous — seek Christ. Follow Christ. 

Psalm 1:2 AMPC declares, “But his delight and desire are in the law of the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God)” Delight in His Word. Delight in His Way. Delight in His precepts, instructions, and teachings — follow His Way. 

When you surrender to God’s Way, He will enlarge your footsteps and guide your course. Deuteronomy‬ ‭28:1‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ declares, “IF YOU will listen diligently to the voice of the Lord your God, being watchful to do all His commandments which I command you this day, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth.”

Choose to obey Christ and He will shift your getting generational Blueprint. Let God transform you. Let God lead your family. Let God do a new thing. Isaiah‬ ‭43:19‬ ‭KJV‬‬ declares, “Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.” Let His Way lead you. Let His Way carve out a new path. Follow after Christ in the midst of the wilderness. Let God light your path. Surrender to Him.
