Theme: Psalm 1

JUDGEMENT DAY

For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.”  Psalms 1:6

JUDGEMENT DAY – we’ve all thought about it at one time or another.  We will all face it – there is no escaping it.  When I read the above verse, the first thought that comes to my mind is that the LORD is in CHARGE.  He KNOWS each and every one of us and He will judge us accordingly.

The wicked will not stand because the LORD is perfect in His judgment. He is flawless in His discernment. The LORD knows the way of the righteous; He approves of their path. Thus He rejects and disapproves of the way of the wicked.

Through the Son, a path was constructed so that men can return to God. Though the righteous still sin, they repent of their sin, but the wicked refuse repentance. The wicked will perish because God is just. God commands men to enter through the narrow gate— He has provided a way for men to be saved— through faith alone in Jesus Christ.  But, there are few that enter.

The way of the wicked will perish, but the righteous will endure— they will prosper for all eternity because they refused to bow their knee to wickedness. They put their trust in those things revealed in the law of the LORD.

Father, we love you.  We are so thankful for Your Son.  Thank you for giving us a path to righteousness so that we may live with you forever.  Help us to stay on that path and to live for you daily.  In Jesus’ name, amen.
