Do not miss this opportunity to discover how to harness strength through God's Word, break free from anxiety, and boldly face whatever challenges come your way.

Main Points

Three times God says, “Be strong and courageous”:
  1. God makes a promise that His people will inherit the land. – A promised future
  2. God gives Joshua the resource that will give him power. – The Book of the Law
  3. God says, “I will be with you.” – My presence
Two ways/paths to live:
  1. God's way. --Psalm 1:1-3
  2. The world's way. --Psalm 1:4-6
Verse 1: How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers!

Three negatives in verse 1:

  1. This person doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked.
  2. This person doesn’t stand in the path of sinners. --Proverbs 13:20
  3. This person does not sit in the seat of scoffers.
Verse 2: “But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night.”
  • Bible reading: Though it may start as a duty, with help and discipline, it becomes a delight as you learn.
  • Meditation: To engraft truth into your heart and life so you begin to think God's thoughts and look at the world through His perspective, seeing fears and challenges in light of His promises and presence.
Verse 3: He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season and its leaf does not wither; and in whatever he does, he prospers.
  • In a world where people are trying to overcome their fear, I will choose to thrive.
  • God assures that following His path will produce a life of blessings and success over time.
Verses 4-6: The wicked are not so, but they are like chaff which the wind drives away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
  • The wicked, like worthless chaff separated from wheat, will be blown away and rejected in judgment.
  • God, the all-knowing creator, promises to shepherd those who reject the world's messages and say "yes" to Him through His Word, guiding them through mistakes as they seek a righteous life.
