How do we measure up to God’s standard for a successful Christian life? Usually, the amount of external evidence we produce is the result of internal activity in our hearts and lives. We find insight to our question in the following scripture.
Psalm 1:1-2 “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.”
God blesses Christians who don’t live like the ungodly of this world, but rather a life separated unto Him.
God blesses Christians who delight in His Word, knowing it is inspired - God-breathed - and the complete revelation of God to man.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: [17] That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.”
