HOW TO FIND LASTING HAPPINESS


Psalm 1


I.

SEPARATE FROM THE WICKED

v. 1


A. Their counsel – walk not in the counsel of the ungodly

B. Their sinful way – nor standeth in the way of sinners

C. Their mockery – nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful

D. The downward progress – Walk, Stand, And Sit

This is the path that Lot took – Gen. 19. It eventually led to his downfall


II.

BE DEVOTED TO GOD’S WORD

v. 2-3

A. Love it & take great delight in it

B. Meditate on day & night

C. The result

1. You will be given life—a fruitful life. Just like a well- watered tree

2. You will prosper


III.

UNDERSTAND THE UNHAPPY & WICKED

v. 4-5

A. They are like chaff: Blown about by the winds of judgment

B. They doom themselves

1. They will face God’s judgment

2. They will be condemned: Excluded from the righteous


IV.

TRUST THE LORD & BE RIGHTEOUS

v. 6

A. He knows the righteous

B. He does not know the wicked: As a result, they perish
