This Person Is Blessed – Is It You? {Psalm 1:1}

by Leave a Comment

Look closer at Psalm 1:1 this week. Consider the path you’re on. Are you blessed as you walk it?

This is week 1 of our memory journey through Psalm 1.

Blessed_Psalm 1-1_pin

Psalm 1 begins like Jesus did with the Sermon on the Mount:

Blessed is the man… (Psalm 1:1)
Blessed are the…. (Matthew 5:3)

And as Jesus describes in the Beatitudes, so the Psalmist (likely David) describes a way of life in Psalm 1 that brings joy. God delights in blessing those who follow Him.

There are two Hebrew words translated as “blessed” in the Old Testament.

  • a verb, barak (#1288), which means “to kneel, to bless”
  • a noun, esher (#835), which means “happiness”

Esher is the word used in Psalm 1. Its root is ashar (#833), which means “to be straight.”

Verse 1 tells us who the happy man is NOT. The blessed man does not veer away from the godly path. He avoids the twists and truths that tire us, frustrate us, and use our resources to lead us nowhere good.

He walks straight.

The ERV translation puts it like this:

Great blessings belong to those who don’t listen to evil advice, who don’t live like sinners, and who don’t join those who make fun of God.
Psalm 1:1 (ERV)

If we want to stay refreshed this week, let’s stay on the straighter path. Avoid distractions that pull us away from our purpose. Stay focused on things above that are more satisfying on a deep soul level.

The path will still have obstacles, and we’ll still feel pain along the way, but as Jesus concludes about the blessed ones in the Beatitudes in Matthew 5, the person on this path can rejoice and be glad (Matthew 5:12).

Next week we’ll look at verse 2 to see what the blessed man does instead of walking the crooked path.

Memorize This Week

Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; 
Psalm 1:1 (ESV)

Want to Walk the Blessed Path?

Walk blessed path Memorize Psalm 1

We are often drawn to the Psalms because we relate to them. These Hebrew poems say a lot in a few words.

  • They console us when we’re sad;
  • they speak for us when we’re speechless;
  • they help us praise when we’re joyful.

The psalm we will begin learning September 23 is known as a wisdom poem. It is an apt introduction to the whole book of Psalms by giving us a clear picture of two ways of life: a blessed way and a wicked way.

We want the blessed path. But there are things to watch for, things to do, and things not to do to help us identify that path and stay on it. Psalm 1 will increase our awareness of those things.

If you’d like to join us in our memorization and meditation on Psalm 1, verse by verse, please sign up today. [UPDATE: Registration now closed.] We’ll send you one email per week for six weeks. Also join us here each Monday morning at the blog for a short devotional on the verse of the week.

We’re excited to delight in the Lord together through these words.

Prepare for Attack: Take the Helmet of Salvation

by Leave a Comment

“If we are walking worthy of our calling…then we can be absolutely certain that we will have opposition and conflict” (John MacArthur, Ephesians: Our Immeasurable Blessings in Christ).

This month we are talking about the armor of God and our need for it as we stand firm against Satan and his host of demons. The truth is that Satan does exist and he wants to do all that he can to make your Christian walk miserable. Not just miserable; he wants you to fail. 

Praise the Lord we are not left to battle these evil forces on our own. We have the power of the Holy Spirit, we have the support of the Church, and we have the armor of God. 

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints… (Ephesians 6:11-18)

The Purpose of the Helmet of Salvation

In verse 17, Paul tells believers to “take the helmet of salvation.” A helmet is designed to protect the head from injury. We see them on cyclists, those in boxing rings, astronauts, construction workers and many athletes. Helmets are designed to protect the physical structure of our cranium and brain. The Helmet of Salvation, however, is designed for much more than that.

Salvation refers to our deliverance from the consequences of our sin — the fact that we deserve eternal separation from God. Salvation is not something that a person can earn. God’s salvation is freely given to us the moment we place our faith in the truth that Jesus took on our sin and paid our debt when He let sinners hang Him on a Roman cross. Just before Jesus took His last breath, He said, “It is finished.” This forever signified that the finally sacrifice had been made and work would no longer need to be done to please God the Father.

Satan, however, doesn’t want us to believe this truth.

He attacks with weapons of doubt, so God gives us the helmet of salvation.

The purpose of this helmet is to guard our thoughts from the enemy’s attack. Satan would love nothing more than to get us to doubt our salvation and God’s for us. He wants us to believe that maybe we haven’t actually been saved. He wants us pondering whether or not we have to earn God’s favor or take on some responsibility in our salvation. 

If Satan can get into our heads he can do all sorts of damage. 

Doubt in the Lord’s salvation may manifest itself in different ways. A believer may:

  • live outside her calling and take on more responsibility than she was designed for in an effort to earn her salvation, 
  • ignore her doubt, never confess it to Jesus, and miss the opportunity for her faith to grow, or 
  • walk away from Christ all together. 

How to Take The Helmet of Salvation

Paul says “take the helmet of salvation.” Take is a verb. It is something we must do. No, not something we must do to earn salvation. Rather, we must do it to remember our salvation. Perhaps to take the helmet simply means to take the time to remember that our salvation has already been accomplished. It doesn’t take much for us to start taking for granted all that Jesus went through in order to secure our salvation, so it’s important practice meditating on the Cross.

Here are a few simple ways to “take the helmet of salvation” and prepare us for the enemy’s attacks:

  1. When reading the Bible, ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to you how the passage is connected to God’s salvation for mankind.
  2. Take the time daily to thank Jesus for the Cross. 
  3. Partake in communion with your local church.
  4. Spend time worshiping God for His sacrifice on your behalf.

These are effective ways to prepare yourself for the attack of the enemy. However, they will not stop the attacks.

When Doubt Hits

Satan will do all he can to make you doubt. And sometimes, you will doubt. When that happens do this:

Confess “I believe, but help my unbelief!”

In Mark 9 the father of a sick boy has a mixture of belief and doubt that Jesus could heal his son. The father doesn’t let the doubt take over. He doesn’t pretend he has only faith. Instead he confesses the truth — that he believed, but still possessed some doubt. Its the most amazing thing! He gave his mixture of faith and doubt to Jesus. It was the best thing for the man to do. It is the best thing for us to do.

When we are attacked by Satan’s weapons of doubt we can let the doubt take over, we can try to pretend it doesn’t exist, or we can confess it to Jesus.

To take the helmet of salvation means to put into place the simple practice of remembering what Jesus has done for us. And when we doubt does creep in, it also means trusting Him enough to cry out for help.

Lord, I know that You have provided my salvation. You have saved me from my sins. I trust that You are enough. But sometimes I don’t. Sometimes my daily practice of remembering the cross is forgotten. Sometimes I am lazy and take for granted all that you have done for me. I take off my helmet rather than take it up. Forgive me. Help me to prepare for the enemy’s attack. And when his weapons do find their target, help me to remember to cry out to You. You are my only help! You are my only strength and my defense. I need you. I believe, but help my unbelief! Amen.

Faith Forward: The Shield of FAITH

by Leave a Comment

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. (Ephesians 6:11)

What does it look like to “put on the whole armor of God?” How do I put this in terms I can understand and practice? I wrestled with these thoughts as I prepared to write today’s post on the “shield of faith,” and then while perusing my Facebook feed I found an answer.

Eighth grader, Bella, was bullied by a fellow student at her middle school for being different. Kaitlin, Bella’s older sister, created a way to defend and support her sister while confronting the bullying behavior with kindness and courage. Kaitlin designed a t-shirt, like a shield of faith; for Bella, herself, and a few friends to wear to school. The t-shirt promises, “You will never walk alone.”

Learn more about Bella’s story here.

Can you imagine how Bella felt going to school with the promise of not being alone emblazoned across her t-shirt? Even more, how loved and supported she felt to see others wearing the same message? God promises Believers that we “will never walk alone” throughout scripture. When we move forward, trusting this promise, we do so in confidence that God goes before us.

In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one… (Ephesians 6:16)

Shields in New Testament Times

The Greek word for shield in Ephesians 6:16 is thyreos (scutum in Latin). Thayer’s Greek Lexicon defines this type of shield as “large, oblong, and four-cornered.” This shield would nearly cover a soldier from head to toe. [See picture below.] Studying further, I found this description:

By Photo credit: Yale University Art Gallery

Such a shield was not just defensive but could also be used to push opponents. When fighting as a group, a phalanx of soldiers could position their shields so as to form an enclosure around themselves, called a testudo (“tortoise”). [See picture below.] This was especially helpful to protect against arrows launched from the walls of cities they were attacking. Shields, often made of wood and then covered in hide, when wet, could extinguish flaming arrows. (GotQuestions.org)

By CristianChirita (talk · contribs) (Own work), CC BY-SA 3.0

From this we can see why the apostle Paul used a shield of the thyreos / scutum style as a metaphor for faith and spiritual armor. Faith…

1. defends. (Exodus 15:2, NIV)
2. defeats the enemy. (1 Corinthians 15:24-25)
3. strengthens when joined with others. (Ephesians 4:11-15)
4. quenches the condemning fire of the enemies’ arrows. (Romans 8:1)

The Shield of Faith

For Believers, faith as discussed in Ephesians 6:16 is the belief and trust that He who purchased our pardon, conquered sin, and vanquished death is with us, defending us, and leading us. It is the confidence, whether defending against a spiritual attack or moving into enemy territory, that Christ goes before us and has already claimed the victory. Faith moves forward; it does not retreat.

Fiery Arrows

For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. (Ephesians 6:12)

Ever since mankind’s fall in Genesis 3, Satan flings everything he can at Believers to cause doubt and destruction. He especially loves it when his accusations lead to condemnation. Satan loves defeat. Are you facing troubling circumstances? Do you struggle with negative thoughts? Does anxiety get the best of you? Are you overwhelmed by Satan’s lies? Faith is the answer, but it is not “pixie dust.” Faith takes our eyes off the fiery arrows and focuses them on Jesus. Staying focused on Him and His promises, the searing arrows of Satan are extinguished.

Faith in Action

As I thought about the shield of faith and what it looks like to suit up and use it, I thought of three faithful sayings in scripture.

1. Obey God’s Word: “And Mary said, ‘Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.’ And the angel departed from her.” (Luke 1:38)

2. Go when God calls: “And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?’ Then I said, ‘Here I am! Send me.’” (Isaiah 6:8)

3. Rely on Christ’s strength: “I can do all things through him who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13)

When I yield my heart and mind to Christ in faith, I see Him work in me, and it spurs me on to the next step of faith. God is faithful to grow what I give Him in faith.

You Will Never Walk Alone

Kaitlin designed a t-shirt that she thought a few people would wear. She thought a few people would join her in supporting her sister. It turns out that 125 students, family and friends wore the t-shirt to support Bella. Faith smothered the scorching words of a bully. In this world darkness abounds, and Satan works to have his way. Keep your eyes on Jesus! Walk forward in faith. With Jesus, you will never walk alone.

‘I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.’ (John 16:33)

Are Your Shoes On? You Need to Bring This

by 30 Comments

You have a word from the Lord: Peace. You’re meant to carry this message of hope to others.

Are you ready to go?

Are Your Shoes On? Carry Peace_pin

Are You a Shoe Girl?

First, she looks for her own shoes. She brings them to me to help her put them on. Then, she looks for my shoes.

I know what that means. She’s preparing to go somewhere. And wants me to go with her.

My granddaughter is not even two yet, but I already know she’s a shoe girl. Glittery shoes. Rain boots. Sandals. It doesn’t matter. She knows they are her ticket to go, go, go. And she wants me to be ready to go, too.

Others need us to be ready to go, too. The world needs something we have.

Are we ready to give it?

As believers, we’ve been given a special gift: peace. We may not always recognize it or appreciate it, but it’s ours.

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.”
John 14:27

How can we give peace to others? What does that look like?

Put on Your Shoes

The apostle Paul gave a list of spiritual armor to the Ephesians. He wrote that shoes are part of our spiritual armor.

“And, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace.”
Ephesians 6:15

I prefer to go barefooted. Maybe I’m lazy. It feels good to not be bound by shoes.

Except when it hurts not to have shoes. Walking on hot pavement. Running on rocky terrain. Going anywhere in public. These all require shoes.

If we’re going to move forward with our message of peace, we need to be ready, to have our shoes on.

Isaiah said this:

“How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of happiness, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, ‘Your God reigns.'”
Isaiah 52:7

The Right Shoes

As believers in Jesus, we’ve each been gifted with peace. Not only for ourselves, but to share with others. Peace is a word from the Lord we are to pass around.

Peace includes these refreshing and beautiful truths:

  • God is good;
  • you are loved;
  • you are never alone.

Thanks to Jesus, who is peace Himself, believers are one with God (Ephesians 2:13). And even when we don’t “feel” it, our problems are no longer ours, but His. We still have to stand firm in the battle, but He is already our victory.

And this is a gift we can share with others.

Speak peace:

  • To the suffering.
    Discovering that there is purpose in our suffering, even when we don’t know what that purpose is, brings peace.
  • To those in trials.
    When things are hard, knowing that this, too, will pass, brings peace.
  • To chaos.
    In the midst of confusion, trusting that Someone can and will eventually untangle all the knots, brings peace.

Be a Messenger of Peace

We can’t solve the problems ourselves. But we can cover them with words of peace, with a message of hope, with the gift of presence.

That’s grace. That’s gospel. That’s Jesus.

Peace is God’s gift to the world. Everybody wants it. We have it. Don’t hoard it.

Pray for grace to give peace to others. Even when you feel afraid or unprepared or unskilled to help others with their troubles, remember that your feet are wearing God’s armor. Let His feet be your feet, and go. Let His words be your words.

Let His peace be your peace.

And when we can’t go in person to deliver a message of peace? Go in prayer.

As we give peace to others, we’ll find more of it for ourselves. Jesus said peacemakers are sons of God (Matthew 5:9). Helping others remember where our help comes from, is a sure way to stay connected to that help ourselves.

When my granddaughter brings me my shoes, I say thank you. I want to be ready to go outside with her. I put them on, and off we go.

You can stay ready, too. Put your shoes on. Carry peace with you everywhere you go.

It’s good news that everyone longs to hear.

Are your shoes on? Be ready to carry peace everywhere you go. #ArmorofGod #Ephesians6

Are you a shoe person? Is it easy or hard for you to recognize the peace of Christ in your own storms? To carry to others in their storms?

But how?

Try scripture memory.

As you practice reciting the verses you’re learning, you are intentionally placing God’s truths in your mind and on your heart.

And when we’re thinking good things about God, we are not allowing our minds to be filled with lies, doubts, bitterness, confusion, judgments, comparisons, etc.

Doesn’t that sound delightful?

Protect Your Heart: Put on the Breastplate of Righteousness

by 1 Comment

“Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness.”

Ephesians 6:14

Today we continue our exploration of the armor of God in Ephesians 6:10-18, considering what it means to put on the breastplate of righteousness. I love the way God gives us pictures to help us wrap our finite minds around infinite concepts of truth. I imagine a young Ephesian, new to the faith, maybe even a former soldier, listening to the letter Paul wrote and connecting with the idea of spiritual warfare and the need for armor. Now, here we are, thousands of years later and that same picture still has something amazing to teach us.

Close your eyes and think of a suit of armor. What do you picture? A knight? A samurai? Maybe a Roman soldier, since you know we’re talking about the armor of God? How about a modern infantryman or a member of the SWAT team? Armor may be one of the oldest inventions of mankind and while materials and styles have changed over the years, the basic components and their purpose, to protect, have stayed the same.

The breastplate is part of the torso armor, intended to protect the vital organs between the neck and the navel, most specifically, the heart.

Why is the Heart so Vulnerable?

In biological terms, we understand that the heart is a muscle which pumps blood carrying oxygen and nutrients to the rest of the body. Blood is the life force of the body and thus the heart is necessary to life.

In spiritual terms, we understand that the heart is the center of emotions, experience. The ancient Greeks also considered it to be the center of intellectual life. To speak of the heart was to speak of the soul, the very essence of a person.

Again, thinking in physical terms and using the picture Paul gave us of battle, we can understand that our middles are vulnerable to deadly attacks. I’m not an expert in war but I have seen enough battle based movies to know that a chest or stomach wound is going to be more effective than even a severed limb.

If what we do in life is dictated by our thoughts and feelings, it stands to reason that our hearts are vulnerable points of attack needing a great deal of protection.

Guard your heart above all else, for it is the source of life. (Proverbs 4:23, CSB)

How does Righteousness Protect the Heart?

In the same way a breastplate can be made of chain mail, iron, or even leather or wood, each with varying degress of effectiveness, so too can we use different techniques to protect our hearts.

Anger. Pride. Vanity. Indifference. Humor. Productivity. Work or hobbies. We put on these habits, attitudes, and behaviors, using them as a breastplate, keeping perceived dangers at arm’s length where it is less likely to hurt us.

Paul urges us instead to put on the breastplate of righteousness, a more effective defense against the spiritual battles we are engaged in.

Righteousness is best defined as “right” thinking. It comes from an Old English word meaning “ruled” as in a “straight line”. In other words, righteousness is aligning our hearts with God. Allowing our thoughts and emotions to be ruled by the direction of the Lord.

“The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart.” Psalm 19:8

How do we “Put On” righteousness?

Righteousness is not something we can earn or achieve on our own. Isaiah 64:6 describes our best efforts at right thinking as dirty rags, and Paul writes in Romans,

“For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin. But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it— the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.” – Romans 3:20-24

Armor does not go on automatically. We make the choice every day to be battle ready by setting our hearts and minds on the Lord, or to relax and hope the enemy is quiet.

“As we wear Christ’s breastplate of righteousness, we begin to develop a purity of heart that translates into actions. Wearing this breastplate creates a lifestyle of putting into practice what we believe in our hearts. As our lives become conformed to the image of Christ (Romans 8:29), our choices become more righteous, and these godly choices also protect us from further temptation and deception (Proverbs 8:20; Psalm 23:3).” – Got Questions

Conclusion

If you’re looking to learn more about righteousness I highly recommend looking back at these great posts from Do Not Depart writers. In the meantime, I’ll leave you with this thought from David Guzick,

“We are sometimes tempted to say to the devil, “Look at all I’ve done for the Lord.” But that is shaky ground, though sometimes it feels good. It is shaky because feelings and experiences change quickly. God’s righteousness isn’t. The breastplate of righteousness is your best defense against the sense of spiritual depression and gloom that comes against us.”
