His delight is in the law of the Lord....Whatever he does prospers. Psalm 1:2-3
What does it take to prosper in every aspect of life? It starts with delighting in the law of the Lord. Prosperity is birthed from spending time in God's word under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
By spending time in the word of God the Holy Spirit will teach us principles for the various aspects of our lives in which we desired to be rendered happy.
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind...Romans 12:2
For things to go according to our expectations we must renew our minds continually. The patterns of this world bombard us everyday and in multiple ways. Can we spend some time with the one who saves us?
But we can't approach this time in the law of the Lord out of a sense of obligation, nor from a stance that we will earn the the right for our lives to be agreeable with our wishes. No condemnation, just delight.
As we delight in God's word and His instructions for us we will be directed to those truths that we need to prevail in all aspects of our life.
We can then meditate on God's law and take these truths into our hearts. We are able to internalize the Holy Spirit's teaching.
Internalizing the precepts will be manifested in the words that we speak. The water by which our tree is planted will flowing living water.
This water flowing from the sanctuary will yield good fruit in season. Our actions will be based love and good fruit will flourish.
And when the fears, worries and anxieties of life come upon us the meditations will change our thinking. If nothing else we can praise God for who is and thank him for all His many blessings. Our leaves will not wither. We will prevail!
Psalm 119:92 If your law had not been my delight, I would have perished in my affliction.
Psalm 112 Hallelujah!
Happy is the man who fears the Lord, taking great delight in His commands. His descendants will be powerful in the Land; the generation of the upright will be blessed. Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever. Light shines in the darkness for the upright man. He is gracious, compassionate, and righteous. Good will come to a man who lends generously and conducts his business fairly. He will never be shaken. The righteous man will be remembered forever. He will not fear bad news; his heart is confident, trusting the Lord. His heart is assured; he will not fear. In the end he will look in triumph on his foes. He distributes freely to the poor; his righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted in honor. The wicked man will see [it] and be angry; he will gnash his teeeth in despair. The desire of the wicked man will come to nothing.
Whatever we do prospers.
