Getting off on the wrong foot

Psalm 1:1–3 KJV 1900
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. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, That bringeth forth his fruit in his season; His leaf also shall not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
Psalm 1:1-3

Have you ever gotten off on the wrong foot?

I have and I am reminded back when I ran track that in over to take off you needed to start with your strongest foot. I not it would hinder you from running the race.
We often use this same illustration in life when we first start off.
Relationships
New job
buying more than you can afford
trying to stay up with the others.
What about our walk with God?
Let us look from Gods word how a little here can bring about more problems later on.
Psalm 1:1 KJV 1900
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.
Psalm 1:1
3 points I want to bring out here.
Walking in the counsel of the ungodly.
The advice, to seek or give advice.
There is a warning when we no longer go to God for advice or a person that is mature in the Lord to give that advice.
The ungodly give worldly advice.
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil,who put darkness for light, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.
They allow our children to become so worldly even in the church.
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world,the love of the father is not in him.
the world are anything of the world the love of the father is not in him.

Godly Person.

A godly person is influenced not by unrighteous people but by his meditation on the Word of God.
Such meditation requires necessarily that we study Gods Word . That is if we have a desire to do so.

Stand in the way of sinners.

Here is the dangers if you listen to them then you will hang out with them.
2 Corinthians 6:14 KJV 1900
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
2 Corinthians 6:14
1 John 1:1–10 KJV 1900
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full. This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
1John 1:1-10

Sitting in the seat of the scornful

Mocking making fun of.
Many today may laught today but cry later.
Galatians 6:6–10 KJV 1900
Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things. Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
