Psalm 1 is a passage in Scripture that I have read multiple times. I was eager to learn what God was going to teach me. I love that God has new truths to teach us even though we think we have become familiar with certain passages of Scripture.

What do you think the psalmist is trying to say? This psalm has different meanings. I believe the psalmist is ultimately admonishing us to refrain from all forms of iniquity and evil‚ and instead encouraging us with a magnanimous opportunity to enjoy God’s blessing if we carefully obey His commands. How might this particular psalm apply today? I believe that this psalm is timeless. It has as much meaning today‚ as it did thousands of years ago. An example might be a former addict staying away from

championing the purposes of Christ and growing the church. We see numerous occurrences where Paul‚ being a man of little concern for the status quo‚ is either imprisoned or fleeing capture by Jewish or Roman officials for usurping the latter (Acts 19: 23-41). The date of Paul’s letter to the Ephesians is dated 60-61A.D.‚ depending on differing research. While this is certainly one of his epistles known as the “prison letters”‚ Ephesians was penned prior to Paul’s first roman imprisonment‚ along with
