You can be blessed!
Sumner Wemp

The blessed person"Blessed is the man" Ps. 1:1. Don't just desire, hope, pray for a blessing, or wait for a blessing but delight in and do what brings inexplicable blessings. Delight in the Word of God"His delight is in the law of the Lord" Ps. 1:2. He reads the Bible! Now, seriously, how much do you read the Word of the Living God every day? We ought to delight in it not read it out of duty. Desire the delicious milk of the Word "like newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may grow in respect to salvation," 1 Peter 2:2. O dear people, cry out for the Word of God like a new born baby cries out for the milk of it's mother. That is the natural and normal thing to do. Discover God's precious word"Your words were found and I ate them, And Your words became for me a joy and the delight of my heart; "Jer. 15:16. That joy and rejoicing is worth a billion times more than all the pleasures of the world. Pick up that Bible. Discover that joy again like you had when you were first saved. Meditate on the Word"In His law he meditates day and night" Ps. 1:2. What are you thinking about all day long? Watch TV by the hour and I guarantee you, that you won't do any meditating, (concentrated thinking) about God and the Word of God. Memorize Scripture so you can meditate on it as you work, wash dishes, drive, walk and play. Celeste and I memorized hundreds of verses through the Navigators program. What eternal dividends this has brought to our lives. Bear fruit and be prosperous" Which yields its fruit in its season And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers. " Ps. 1:3. Do this and you will succeed. O dear people, I want this for your so badly I could scream. THIS IS LIVING. This is what life is all about. This is "life more abundantly" John 10:10. You chose what you want to do. Choose life "I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. So choose life in order that you may live" Deut. 30:19 Prayer: Father, bless your dear children that they may choose to delight in Your word and meditate in it so they may rejoice and prosper. In Jesus name.
