IN AGREEMENT WITH GOD(Psalm 1)

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.

Man's predicament from the beginning was in rejecting God as King. The enemy dragged man to err the same way he did, to resist God's authority and seek his own.

Genesis 3:4&5
And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

Isaiah 14:12-15
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! [how] art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

So is it with all who rebel against God.

However the contrary is to walk in agreement with Him. Glory to God that man did not go further to eat of the tree of life and thus become immortal and then irredeemable.

Genesis 3:22
 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:

So God calls out to man through Israel to come for redemption.

Isaiah 1:18
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

This is the sacrifice that Christ came to do.

Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 53:5
But he [was] wounded for our transgressions, [he was] bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace [was] upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

Thus our agreement with Christ is agreement with God.

John 14:23
Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

So the ungodly are those who reject God, those who refused to be in agreement with Him. For He has set His path of redemption, is either man accepts or rejects.

John 1:18
 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared [him].

John 3:16-20(NLT)
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.
“There is no judgment against anyone who believes in him. But anyone who does not believe in him has already been judged for not believing in God’s one and only Son.
And the judgment is based on this fact: God’s light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil.
All who do evil hate the light and refuse to go near it for fear their sins will be exposed.

This is what David prophesied:

Psalm 1:6
 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

The question every man must answer is thus:

ARE YOU IN AGREEMENT WITH GOD?

We can not thank Him enough for reaching out to us. Heavenly Father we give you all the glory and praise.

You call us blessed. Halleluyah.
