Psalm 1 - Like a Tree by the Rivers of Waters
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In "Psalm 1 - Like a Tree by the Rivers of Waters," Steve Gregg explains that a godly person is like a tree planted by rivers of water, producing fruit in its season, and not withering. The deep roots of this tree can sustain it during spiritual droughts. To bear fruit, one must meditate on God's word, carefully consider the advice they receive, and resist being drawn off by worldly concerns. Gregg emphasizes the importance of not only studying but also obeying the Word of God to produce fruit and achieve happiness in life.
