Title: THE DIVINE GIVING
Text : Psalm 37:4
“Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”

A. Tapos na natin mapag aralan ang
Delight in the LORD , Desire of the Heart at sa umagang ito ang ating pag aaralan ay the DIVINE GIVING.

B. Maraming tao ang may desires sa buhay - desire for provision , family, ministry , success , peace and a better future. Ngunit Awit 37:4 is not simply a promise that God will give us everything we want. The verse first teaches us to delight ourselves in the LORD. Kaya pansinin ang order

Delight ... Desire ... Divine Giving

C. God is not merely interested in giving us what is in our hearts , He desires to work in our hearts so that what we desire becomes increasingly aligned with Him.

Mga kapatid ang tunay na blessing ay hindi lamang what God gives kundi Who God is to us while He gives it.

D. How does delighting ourselves in the LORD prepare our hearts to receive the desires that He gives?

I. DELIGHT IN THE LORD

A. Psalm 37:4 begins “Delight thyself also in the LORD...”

The Hebrew word translated “delight” carries the thought of taking great pleasure, enjoyment or satisfaction in something.

Pansining mabuti ang sinabi ni David HINDI niya sinabi na “Delight thyself in what the LORD can give.”

Ngunit lubusan niyang sinabi
“Delight thyself also IN THE LORD.”

The object of our delight is NOT the blessing - the object is the LORD Himself.

This is the foundation of the promise. Before God deals with our desires, He deals with our delight.

B. APPLICATION

Kung alisin ng Diyos ang blessings, desires , possessions and answered prayers — will I still delight in Him?”

True Christianity is NOT merely loving God's hand because of what it gives; it is loving God's heart because of Who He is.

Kapag si LORD ang ating delight, hindi na natin kailangang habulin ang mundo para makahanap ng satisfaction.

C. Grace Christian Bible Church , learn to enjoy God before you enjoy His gifts. Kapag ang Diyos mismo ang satisfaction ng puso mo, hindi ka madaling masisira kapag hindi dumating ang gusto mo.

D. Delight in the LORD before you desire from the LORD.

II. DESIRE IN THE HEART

A. The verse continues“...and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”

Pansinin mabuti ang word “desires.”

God is concerned not only with our outward circumstances but also with the heart. May mahalagang progression:

Delight thyself in the LORD - He shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

When we delight ourselves in Him, He transforms our desires so that our hearts increasingly desire what pleases Him.

Psalm 37:4 should therefore be understood together with the broader teaching of Scripture concerning God's will , prayer and submission.

The heart that delights in God learns to say “Lord, not merely what I want, but what You want.”

B. APPLICATION

Ganito tayo minsan Lord , bakit hindi Mo ibinibigay ang desire ng heart ko?

Perhaps God is doing something deeper. Maybe He is not merely changing your circumstances - He is changing your desires.

There are times when God's answer is:
Yes - bec. it is according to His will.
Wait - because His timing is better.
No - because He knows what we cannot see.
Something better - because His wisdom exceeds ours.

Our responsibility is not to manipulate God into giving our desires but our responsibility is to delight in Him, trust Him, and surrender our desires to Him.

C. When the LORD is your delight, your desires come under His direction.

III. DIVINE GIVING

A. The promise says ...and HE SHALL GIVE THEE...

The emphasis ultimately rests upon Him. HE shall give... Not your strength... Not your connections... Not your ability... Not your circumstances.

HE SHALL GIVE.

The phrase speaks of God's gracious activity. What God gives is ultimately dependent upon His character, wisdom , timing and will.

Kaya ang Awit 37 ay fundamentally a chapter about trusting the LORD.

Awit 37:3 “Trust in the LORD, and do good...”

Awit 37:5 “Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.”

Kaya ang Awit 37:4 does not stand alone as a formula for getting what we want.

It stands within a context of trust , delight , commitment and dependence upon God.

B. APPLICATION

There are things you cannot produce by your own strength.

You can work, plan, pray, prepare, and be faithful—but ultimately, God is the Giver. Therefore, do not become anxious over what God has not yet given.

Grace Christian Bible Church if He is your delight, you can trust His giving... Kung delayed, trust Him... Kung denied, trust Him... Kung different from what you expected, trust Him... Kung dumating ang blessing , thank Him.

C. The greatest evidence of faith is not that we get everything we ask for.

The greatest evidence of faith is that we continue to trust God whether He gives, delays, or redirects.

D. What God gives is governed by Who God is.

CONCLUSION

Psalm 37:4 gives us a beautiful spiritual progression:

The deeper truth is when you delight in the LORD , your heart becomes a place where godly desires are formed and you can trust Him with whatever He chooses to give.

Lord, how can I delight myself more in You?

Because when He becomes your delight , His will becomes your desire, and His giving becomes something you can trust.

Grace Christian Bible Church remember to :... DELIGHT IN HIM... DESIRE HIS WILL AND ... TRUST HIS GIVING.

Blessed Thursday Morning!
Godbless!

Title: THE DESIRE OF THE HEART
Text: Psalm 37:4 [KJV]
“Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”

A. Kahapon ay ating pinag aralan ang DELIGHT in the Lord , today we will meditate the DESIRE of the heart.

B. Every person has desires in the heart. May mga bagay tayong gustong magkaroon , marating, o mangyari.

Ngunit sa Awit 37:4 teaches us that the greatest issue is NOT what we desire BUT what we delight in.

C. When the LORD becomes the delight of our heart He also begins to shape the desires of our heart.

I. THE DELIGHT OF THE HEART
“Delight thyself also in the LORD…”

A. The command begins with “Delight thyself”. The Hebrew thought behind delight [ʿānag] carries the idea of taking great pleasure or finding exquisite delight.

Pansinin na ang talata ay hindi nagsabi na “Get what you desire.”
It says, “Delight thyself… in the LORD.”

Ang priority ng puso is not the blessing - it is the Blesser.

When the LORD is our delight:.. We value His presence... We enjoy His Word... We desire His fellowship... We find satisfaction in Him.

B. Before God gives the desire, God must become the delight.

C. Is the Lord really my greatest delight or is He merely the One I run to when I want something?

II. THE DIRECTION OF THE HEART
“Delight thyself also in the LORD…”

A. Our delight determines our direction. What captures the affection of the heart eventually influences the decisions of the life.

B. Psalm 37 is addressing believers who were tempted to become anxious or envious because of the prosperity of the wicked. Instead of allowing circumstances to control their hearts, David points them back to the LORD.

When our delight is in God, our hearts begin to move toward God.

C. What delights your heart will eventually direct your life.”

If our delight is money.. money will direct us.
If our delight is recognition.. recognition will direct us.
But if our delight is the LORD.. the LORD will direct our desires and decisions.

D. Where is my heart being directed?

III. THE DESIRES OF THE HEART
“…and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”

A. GCBC family , this promise must be understood in its context. It does not mean that God will automatically grant every selfish wish.

When a person genuinely delights in the LORD , his desires are increasingly shaped by the LORD.

B. Psalm 37:5 “Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.”

Pansinin ang sequence itoy mahalaga
Delight - Desire - Commit - Trust

God is not merely interested in giving us what we want. He is interested in transforming what we want.

C. God does not merely fulfill the heart’s desires; He forms the heart that desires.

D. Grace Christian Bible Church
Sometimes God's answer is YES
Sometimes WAIT
Sometimes NO
But in every answer, God is working on the heart.

IV. THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE HEART
“…and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”

A. God develops our desires through waiting, trusting, praying, obeying and walking with Him.

Minsan iniisip natin na blessing is the destination. Ngunit may greater blessing is what God does inside us while we are waiting.

The Lord may delay the answer because He is developing:.. our faith,.. our patience,.. our character,.. our dependence and .. our understanding of His will.

B. While we are waiting for the desire, God is developing the heart.

Kaya kung matagal ang sagot DON'T immediately conclude that God has forgotten you. Perhaps God is preparing you for what you are asking Him to give.

C. Lord, if You are not yet changing my circumstance, change my heart while I am waiting.”

CONCLUSION:

Grace Christian Bible Church
"The secret of having the right desires is not getting everything we want, but delighting ourselves in the LORD..."

When the Lord becomes the delight of the heart, He becomes the direction of the heart; and when He directs the heart, He transforms its desires.

Blessed Wednesday Morning!
Godbless!

Title: DELIGHT IN THE LORD
Text: Psalm 37:4 [KJV]
“Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”

A. Psalm 37 is a Psalm of David addressing the believer's response when the wicked appear to prosper while the righteous experience difficulty. David repeatedly contrasts the temporary success of the wicked with the secure future of those who trust in the LORD.

B. In Psalm 37:3-7, David gives several commands:. Trust in the LORD. v. 3. Delight thyself in the LORD. v. 4. Commit thy way unto the LORD.v. 5. Rest in the LORD . v. 7. Wait patiently for him . v. 7

C. Psalm 37:4 therefore teaches more than receiving our desires from God.
It teaches us to make God Himself the delight of our heart.

D. What happens when we truly delight ourselves in the LORD?

I. THE PRIORITY OF DELIGHT
“Delight thyself also in the LORD...”

The command begins with the word “Delight.” Before David speaks about the desires of the heart, he speaks about the direction of the heart.

To delight in the LORD means to find our deepest pleasure, satisfaction, and joy in Him.

The Christian life is not merely about doing things for God; it is first about enjoying God and valuing Him above all else.

Psalm 16:11 “...in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.”»

B. God must not simply be part of our lives . He must become the center of our lives.

Mayroon malaking pagkakaiba ang
Serving God because we love His blessings and Serving God because we love Him.

True delight places the GIVER above the GIFTS.

C. Make God your greatest pleasure, not merely your greatest Provider.

II. THE PURITY OF DESIRE
“...and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”

A. The promise concerning our desires comes after the command to delight in the LORD.

This is important because Scripture teaches that the heart can have wrong desires.

Jeremiah 17:9 “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?”

Therefore, Psalm 37:4 cannot properly mean that God promises to fulfill every selfish desire.

The context shows a believer who is trusting, delighting, committing, resting and waiting upon the LORD.

B. When we delight in the LORD, He begins to purify and redirect our desires. Our prayer changes from:
“Lord, give me what I want.” to:
“Lord, teach me to want what You want.”

Psalm 37:5 “Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.”

God is concerned not only with what is in our hands, but also with what is in our hearts.

C. When God becomes our delight ,
His will becomes our desire.

III. THE POWER OF DEPENDENCE
“...and he shall give thee...”

A. The phrase points us to God's faithful action. The believer is commanded to delight; God is the One who gives.

The Christian's confidence is therefore not ultimately in his own ability to obtain what he desires, but in God's ability and wisdom to provide what is best.

Psalm 37:23 “The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD...”»

B. Delighting in the LORD produces a life of dependence rather than demand. We trust God's:. Wisdom when He says no.. Timing when He says wait.. Goodness when circumstances are difficult.. Provision when we do not know how the need will be met.

Romans 8:32 “He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?”

The greatest proof that God can be trusted is Christ Himself.

C. When we delight in God's presence, we can depend upon God's provision.

CONCLUSION:

Psalm 37:4 gives us a beautiful picture of a heart that has learned where true satisfaction is found.
.. THE PRIORITY OF DELIGHT
Make God your greatest pleasure.
.. THE PURITY OF DESIRE
Let God shape what your heart desires.
.. THE POWER OF DEPENDENCE
Trust God to provide according to His wisdom.

Psalm 37:4 teaches something much deeper: “Delight in God until God Himself becomes what your heart wants most.”

GCBC , when the LORD is our delight , We begin to say: “God, You are enough.”

“Delight in the LORD, let Him shape your desires, and depend on Him for the results.”

Blessed Delightful Tuesday Morning!

Title : “Walking in the Light of God’s Word”
Text : Psalm 119:105
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”

A. Imagine walking on a dark road at night. Hindi mo kailangang makita ang buong road para makapaglakad.

What you need is enough light to see where to put your next step. Without light, even a familiar path can become dangerous. You can stumble over a stone, step into a hole, or take the wrong direction.

B. Ganyan din ang buhay Kristyano. May mga seasons ng buhay na we ask.. Lord, saan ako pupunta?” .. Anong decision ang dapat kong gawin?” .. Tama po ba itong direksyon na tinatahak ko?”

Sometimes we want God to show us the entire picture - the future , the outcome and every detail of His plan.

But God often does not give us a floodlight that reveals everything at once. Instead, He gives us His Word as a lamp. Psalm 119:105:
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”

C. Psalm 119: 105 presents two beautiful pictures of God’s Word:

“Lamp unto my feet” — guidance for the immediate step.

“Light unto my path” — guidance for the direction and journey ahead.

I. THE WORD PROVIDES DIRECTION
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet…”

A. God’s Word gives light when we do not know what step to take.

B. The lamp speaks of present guidance.

C. Hindi kailangang makita natin ang buong journey kailangan nating makita ang next step God wants us to take.

D. Before making decisions, let Scripture illuminate your feet.

II. THE WORD PREVENTS DEVIATION
“…a lamp unto my feet…”

A. Remember that Light exposes.. obstacles.. dangers and.. wrong paths

B. God’s Word does not merely tell us where to go , it warns us where not to go.

C. Psalm 119:11 “Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.”

D. A Christian who neglects the Word is walking in spiritual darkness even when the world looks bright.

III. THE WORD PLOTS OUR DESTINATION
“…and a light unto my path.”

A. The path speaks of the course or way of life.

B. God’s Word gives us not only daily direction but a God-centered perspective for the journey.

C. Proverbs 3:5–6 reminds us to trust the LORD rather than our own understanding.

D. Grace Christian Bible Church
Hindi lang po “Lord , ano po ang next step?” kundi “Lord, saan Mo ako dinadala at paano ako lalakad ayon sa Iyong kalooban?”

GCBC as we embrace a brandnew week always remember that God’s Word gives sufficient light for both our next step and our life's journey.

When God’s Word is our light, we can walk by faith even when we cannot see the whole way.

Gods Word is a lamp for our feet and a light for our path enough light to keep walking by faith.

May the grace of our Jesus Christ
The love of God and
The fellowship of the Holy Spirit by with us now and forevermore. Amen

Title: “The Good Thing About Giving Thanks”
Text: Psalm 92:1 [KJV]
“It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:”

INTRODUCTION:

A. Giving thanks to the LORD is not merely a response to good circumstances; it is a good spiritual discipline that should characterize every believer.

B. A thankful heart recognizes God’s goodness, responds with praise, and reflects a right relationship with the Most High.

C. Ano ang ating matututunan mula sa Psalm 92:1?

I. THANKFULNESS IS GOOD IN ITS PURPOSE
“It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD…”

A. Thanksgiving directs our attention to the LORD NOT merely to His blessings.

B. The Hebrew idea behind “give thanks” carries the thought of .. acknowledging.. confessing or .. declaring God's goodness.

Thanksgiving helps us remember Who God is and what God has done.

C. Hindi lang tayo thankful because something good happened; we give thanks because God Himself is good.

D. Kapag marami kang problema, look beyond the problem and remember the Person who is greater than the problem.

II. THANKFULNESS IS GOOD IN ITS PRAISE
“…and to sing praises unto thy name…”

A. Thanksgiving naturally produces praise.

“Thy name” speaks of God's revealed character and reputation.

B. When we truly recognize God's goodness, our lips should have something to say about Him.

A thankful heart is not silent about the goodness of God.

C. Kailan ang huling pagkakataon na I deliberately praised God not because I needed something, but simply because He is worthy?

III. THANKFULNESS IS GOOD IN ITS PERSPECTIVE
“…O most High:”

A. God is “the Most High.” He is .. above our circumstances.. above our enemies.. above our fears and .. above our limitations.

B. Thanksgiving changes our perspective: we stop magnifying the problem and start magnifying God.

C. Kapag alam mong ang Diyos ang “Most High,” may dahilan kang magpasalamat kahit hindi mo pa nakikita ang sagot.

D. Your circumstances may change, but the Most High DOES NOT change. Therefore our thanksgiving should not depend entirely upon circumstances.

Grace Christian Bible Church tingnan mabuti ang flow :.. Good Thing.. Give Thanks .. Sing Praise .. See God as Most High

Psalm 92:1 teaches us that thanksgiving is not an optional Christian attitude. It is a good thing.
It is good for our worship, good for our testimony, and good for our perspective.

Blessed Thankful Friday!
Godbless!

Title: "Trusting God When Life Is Uncertain”
Text: Psalm 37:3–5 [KJV]

“Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.

Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.”

Kapag hindi natin kontrolado ang circumstances , matututunan nating magtiwala , magalak, at ipagkatiwala ang ating buhay sa Panginoon.

I. TRUST the LORD. v. 3
“Trust in the LORD, and do good…”

A. Ang tunay na trust ay hindi passive “and do good.” Hindi ibig sabihin ng pagtitiwala ay wala na tayong gagawin.

B. We trust God while faithfully doing what is right.

C. Kahit hindi mo pa nakikita ang sagot , continue doing right.

II. DELIGHT in the LORD . v. 4
“Delight thyself also in the LORD…”

A. Ang delight natin ay hindi dapat nakabase sa blessings kundi sa Blesser.

B. Kapag ang Panginoon ang ating kaligayahan, binabago Niya pati ang desires ng ating puso.

C. Hebrew ng ay delight [ʿānag] to take delight , pleasure or find enjoyment in something.

D. Huwag lang hanapin ang kamay ng Diyos; matutong mahalin ang Diyos mismo.

III. COMMIT your WAY. v. 5
“Commit thy way unto the LORD…”

A. Commit carries the thought of rolling or entrusting one's way to the Lord.

B. Hindi lamang problema ang ibinibigay natin sa Diyos—ang buong “way” o direction ng buhay.

C. Then comes the repeated command “trust also in him.” At ang pangako “he shall bring it to pass.”

D. May mga bagay na hindi mo kayang ayusin; ibigay mo sa Diyos at manatiling faithful.

Pansinin ang Simple Progression... Trust Him... Delight in Him... Commit to Him

Ang progression ay napakaganda. Una , nagtitiwala ka sa Panginoon.. Ikalawa , natututo kang masiyahan sa Panginoon.. Ikatlo , ipinagkakatiwala mo sa Panginoon ang buong direksiyon ng iyong buhay.

When we trust God with our present, delight in Him as our portion and commit our way to Him, we can faithfully walk forward even when we cannot see what He is doing.

Title : "The God Who Hears and Saves”
Text : 2 Samuel 22:1–7 [KJV]

Introduction:

When David looks back on God’s faithfulness, he responds with praise because God is his Rock, Refuge, and Rescuer.

Ano ang ating matutunan mula
2 Samuel 22:1-7 ?

Halikana ating Aralin at Namnamin ang mga Salita ng Diyos sa umagang ito.

I. THE RECOGNITION OF GOD.vv. 1–2
“And David spake unto the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies…”

David did not merely recognize that he had survived - he recognized Who delivered him.

A. The Occasion of His Praise. v. 1
God had delivered David from his enemies.

B. The Object of His Praise. vv. 2–3
“The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer…”

David names God according to what he personally experienced... Rock - stability.. Fortress - security.. Deliverer - salvation from danger

C. Kapag binalikan natin ang buhay natin hindi lang dapat natin makita kung saan tayo nanggaling dapat makita natin kung Sino ang nagdala sa atin hanggang dito.

II. THE RECOURSE TO GOD. vv. 3–4

David declares that when trouble comes, he knows where to run.

“I will call on the LORD, who is worthy to be praised…”

A. David’s Dependence .v. 3
He calls upon the LORD.

Hindi sinabi ni David “I will trust my strength.”
Hindi rin, “I will trust my experience.”
He says, “I will call on the LORD.”

B. David’s Declaration. v. 4
“So shall I be saved from mine enemies.”

His confidence was not in the absence of enemies, but in the presence of God.

C.“Saan tayo tatakbo kapag may problema?”

III. THE RESCUE BY GOD. vv. 5–7

David remembers how desperate his situation was. “When the waves of death compassed me…”

A. The Peril He Faced . vv. 5–6

David describes overwhelming danger:.. “waves of death”.. “floods of ungodly men”.. “snares of death”

The picture is helplessness. David needed intervention.

B. The Prayer He Offered. v. 7a
“In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried to my God…”

Pansinin ang progsesyon
Distress - Calling - Crying - Deliverance

C. The God Who Heard. v. 7b
“and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.”

What a powerful truth!
David cried and God heard.
.. Hindi distant ang Diyos. .. Hindi indifferent ang Diyos. .. He hears the cry of His people.

D. Maaaring hindi agad natin makita ang sagot, pero hindi ibig sabihin na hindi naririnig ng Diyos ang panalangin. The God who heard David still hears His children today.

When God’s people recognize who God is, they will run to Him in prayer and remember how He faithfully rescues them.

Our confidence is ultimately not in ourselves but in the Lord who saves.

Blessed Wednesday Morning!
Godbless!

Title:"Our Refuge , Strength and Help”
Text: Psalm 46:1 [KJV]

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.”

Introduction:

A. When trouble surrounds us, God remains sufficient within us - He is our Refuge, our Resource, and our Relief.

B. Psalm 46:1 does not promise that believers will never experience trouble. Instead, it assures us that trouble will never be greater than the God who is with us.

C. Why should God be our refuge in every trouble?

I. GOD IS OUR REFUGE - THE PLACE OF SAFETY “God is our refuge”

A. Refuge speaks of a place of shelter or protection.

B. When trouble comes, the believer does not merely need a place to escape from trouble ; he needs a Person to run to.

C. Huwag gawing refuge ang pera , tao, posisyon o sariling kakayahan. God Himself is our refuge.

II. GOD IS OUR RESOURCE - THE SOURCE OF STRENGTH “and strength”

A. God does not only give protection; He supplies the strength we need to endure.

B. Our strength may fail, but God's strength never does.

C. Kapag sinabi mong “Hindi ko na kaya,” remember that God's sufficiency begins where human strength ends.

III. GOD IS OUR RELIEF - THE PRESENT HELP IN TROUBLE
“a very present help in trouble”

A. Pansinin ang focus "very present"
Hindi distant ,absent or late ang Diyos.

B. He is present in trouble NOT merely after the trouble.

C. Sometimes God changes the circumstances , sometimes He gives grace to stand in the circumstances. Either way , He is present.

Grace Christian Bible Church rememeber “When trouble comes, don't run from God - run to God, because He is our Refuge in every trouble.”

Title : THE BLESSED LIFE FROM UNGODLY INFLUENCE
Text: Psalm 1:1 [KJV]
“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.”

INTRODUCTION:

A. Ang Awit 1 ay nagsisimula sa salitang “Blessed.” Ipinapakita nito na ang tunay na pagpapala ay hindi lamang tungkol sa kung ano ang mayroon tayo kundi tungkol sa kung paano tayo namumuhay sa harapan ng Diyos.

B. Sa Awit 1:1 ay makikita ang progression: WALK, STAND, SIT.

C. Ipinapakita nito kung paano maaaring magsimula ang compromise sa pakikinig, hanggang sa pananatili, at sa huli ay pagiging komportable sa kasalanan.

D. How can a believer protect his blessed life from ungodly influence?

I. THE COUNSEL HE REJECTS
“walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly”

A. Ang unang binanggit ng Psalmista ay ang “counsel of the ungodly.” Ang counsel ay payo, direction o paraan ng pag-iisip. Ang ungodly ay yaong hindi kumikilala sa Diyos bilang authority sa kanilang buhay.

Pansinin ang salitang “walketh.” Ang walking ay nagpapakita ng direction. Kapag ang isang tao ay patuloy na nakikinig at sumusunod sa maling counsel, maaaring ang counsel na iyon ang magdikta ng kanyang direction.

B. Hindi lahat ng payo na popular ay tama. Hindi lahat ng opinion ng tao ay dapat maging guide ng believer.

Kaya ang blessed man ay marunong magsabi “Hindi lahat ng naririnig ko ay susundin ko.”

Ang kanyang final authority ay hindi ang opinion ng mundo kundi ang Word of God.

B. “Guard your counsel, because your counsel will guide your walk.”

II. THE COMPANY HE REFUSES
“nor standeth in the way of sinners”

A. Mula sa walking, pumunta tayo sa standing.

Ang “way” ay daan o path. Ang “sinners” ay tumutukoy sa mga taong namumuhay sa kasalanan.

Ang warning dito ay hindi lamang tungkol sa pakikisalamuha sa sinners, kundi tungkol sa pagpili na manatili sa kanilang daan.

Pansinin muli progression:
Walk — nakikinig.
Stand — nananatili.

B. Ang isang tao na palaging nakikinig sa maling counsel ay maaaring magsimulang manatili sa maling environment. At kapag naging habitual ang pananatili, nagiging mas madali ang compromise.

Hindi masama ang makipag-usap sa makasalanan. Ang problema ay kapag ang sinner ang nagsimulang magdikta ng ating standard.

B.“Choose where you stand, because where you stand can determine where you go.”

APPLICATION:

Bilang mananampalataya , kailangan nating bantayan ang ating counsel at company.

Sino ang madalas kong pinakikinggan?

Anong klaseng advice ang hinahayaan kong humubog sa aking decisions?

Saan ako palaging nakatayo o nananatili?

Hindi natin kailangang ihiwalay ang ating sarili sa mga makasalanan na parang wala tayong mission. Tinawag tayo ng Diyos upang maging ilaw sa mundong ito.

Pero may pagkakaiba sa pagitan ng reaching sinners at following sinners.

Maaari nating mahalin ang mga tao nang hindi natin sinusunod ang kanilang kasalanan.

At kapag kailangan nating pumili sa pagitan ng popular na counsel at biblical counsel, dapat nating piliin ang Salita ng Diyos.

CONCLUSION:

Ang Awit 1:1 ay nagtuturo sa atin na ang compromise ay maaaring magsimula sa counsel at humantong sa company.

Una, WALK NOT in the counsel of the ungodly.

Ikalawa, STAND NOT in the way of sinners.

Ang blessed man ay maingat sa kanyang pinakikinggan at sa kanyang pinipiling daan.

Kaya ang sikreto ng isang blessed life ay hindi lamang ang pag-iwas sa mali, kundi ang pagpili sa tama—ang pagpili sa Salita ng Diyos bilang ating counsel at direction.

“Guard your counsel, choose your company, and let God’s Word guide your walk.”

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ
The love of God and
The fellowship of the Hoky Spirit be with you now and forevermore.

Blessed Monday Morning!
Godbless!
