“You Need to Hear This” Ps 1:1-6. Pastor Jim Davis

Sermon from Pastor Jim Davis, Calvary Community Church, Twinsburg, Ohio, Aug 9, 2020.

Psalm 1

There are people who are saved; people who are not.
There are people who believe;
people who don’t.
...stand with Christ;
don’t stand with Christ.
...Godly, not Godly.
...those who walk with God;
those who do not walk with God.
...those who are rooted;
those who are chaff.

Blessed is the man who walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly...who doesn’t get advice from the ungodly or evil advice from well meaning people.

Blessed is the man who does not stand in way of (in direction of) sinners.

Blessed is the man if he does not sit in the seat of the scornful.

“Wisdom” of the world.

Meditate day and night.

You will delight in the law of the Lord when you delight in the Lord of the law.

Being planted vs being sown like seeds. Purposely planted by river(s) of water. Root structure can be fed by multiple rivers.

Testimony.

Security — all the way into eternity.

Chaff goes anywhere the wind blows it. Wheat is heavier — gets to the ground securely.

This is not a dress rehearsal. You are already on your way to eternity.

“Lord knows I tried”.
Lord also knows if you didn’t try.

I Timothy 2:15:
Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
