The Bible is a book about God. The book of Psalm brings us closer to God and gives us understanding of the blessings He has for us. We should desire to live our lives with God’s blessing and honor.

Satan uses all kinds of things to distract us, but we must pray that God will help us not to be sidetracted by anything that will keep us from being the blessed people that God desires for us to be. It is a joy to know that God desires to bless us.

There are things we cannot do if we want to be blessed of God.

“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.” Psalm 1:1-2

Being blessed we meditate on God’s Word. We hide the Word of God in our heart, and we remember it.

We are blessed.
