Walk in Godliness.
\n“Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night.”\u00a0 <\/em>Psalm 1:1-2.<\/p>\n

As believers, we should make God\u2019s word a priority in our lives, it should be our source of wisdom and advice on any problem, decision, or situation we may face.\u00a0 We should be seeking God in prayer for answers to questions we might have about our daily living, not asking our neighbor\u2019s advice or listening to some person on social media.\u00a0 The world wants to distract us from focusing on God and His word, and some people in our lives may not be believers, so we need to be careful who we hang around with or listen to.\u00a0 As believers, we should be very careful that we do not take advice from ungodly people, and we should not hang around with those who have no desire to live and walk righteously.<\/p>\n

If we keep our focus on God and His word we will never be led astray or fall into false teachings, and our life will be blessed.<\/p>\n
