Psalms 1:1-2 (Amp)
Blessed
(happy, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and
lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans
and purposes], nor stands [submissive and inactive] in the path where sinners
walk, nor sits down [to relax and rest] where the scornful [and the mockers]
gather. But his delight and desire are in the law of
the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God)
he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day and by night. And he shall
be like a tree firmly planted [and tended] by the streams of water, ready to
bring forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not fade or
wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity].
In
the above scripture God instructs Christians how to be blessed and this applies
to every area of life, yes, even marriage. Despite the things you may have
experienced or will experience in your marriage that can sometimes try to lead
to frustration, discouragement, distrust, strife, alienation, anger etc., you
can decide today to live a Blessed life. The Blessed life does not promise that
you will not have temptations or test and trials. However, it does promise that if
you live according to the instructions given to us in Psalms 1, that you will prosper
in everything you do.
So that means when you do marriage it will prosper and
come to maturity. When things seem like they are not changing with your spouse,
don’t get discouraged. Be patient and wait on the Lord. Endeavor not to allow
stress and various fears to stealthily creep into your heart and mind causing a
major delay in seeing the blessing of God manifest in your life and marriage.
Stay on track and don’t be slack in your daily fellowship with God. He will see
to it that your life flourishes and remains BLESSED!
