Psalm 1 Questions:

1. What type of people does it warn not to walk, sit or stand with? Where do you get your advice for living? Where do you turn first when a problem or choice arises? What is the danger of sitting with mockers/teasers?
2. In verse 3, Does "delightful" describe your devoted time to His law? What is so "delightful" about meditating on a set a rules?
3. What would your life look like is someone could say of you, "She meditates day and night on God's law". Would it mean less time on the phone, email, facebook? Would it mean your Bible was left open and in a prominent place in your home to return to periodically? Would it mean memorizing scripture or putting verses in key places in your home? Would it mean turning the channel on the radio and TV? Is your time with God delightful or does it get checked off the to-do list? How will you expand your meditation on God's law?
4. Physically we are made up primarily of water. Every living thing is dependent on it. Spiritually and emotionally we also thirst. What is your source for quenching your spiritual and emotional thirsts? Do you plant yourself near the Lord, constantly drawing from His Spirit or do you just want a watering when you are in trouble and need help? A dehydrated plant takes longer to recover and is not able to flower or produce fruit as easily with a constant source of water. Additional reading: John 4:1-26. The Samaritan Woman at the Well.
5. What does prosperity mean in verse 3? What does it mean to prosper by God's standards?
6. In verse 6, Which way/path will you take?
