Bible Reading Psalm 1
2014-09-24 07:58:42
MY NEW BIBLE READING PLAN
I've decided that no matter what, I want to read a Psalm per day at the very least. And, I don't just want to read it. I want to re-read it, pray on it, and prayer journal about it all day throughout the day and night--at least three times.
Of course, if I read more in the Bible each day, that's wonderful. I still want to read the Bible through in a year, but my first priority is in applying the Psalms to my life--and contemplating them.
Psalm 1 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
BOOK I
(Psalms 1–41)
1 How happy is the man
who does not follow the advice of the wicked
or take the path of sinners
or join a group of mockers!
2 Instead, his delight is in the Lord's instruction,
and he meditates on it day and night.
3 He is like a tree planted beside streams of water
that bears its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.
4 The wicked are not like this;
instead, they are like chaff that the wind blows away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not survive the judgment,
and sinners will not be in the community of the righteous.
6 For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked leads to ruin.

Lord, help me make this verse the hallmark, the foundation of my life, each and every day for the next four plus decades.
