| 0:00.0 | You're listening to the battle ready Bible study. My name is Anne McMahonis, and I'm here with my dad, |
| 0:03.9 | Erwin Raphael McManus. How are you doing today? I'm doing great today. How are you doing? I'm doing great. We're a little bit behind on today's devotional, but we wanted to make sure we got it in after a pretty hectic weekend. We're just going to dive straight into Psalm 1. We're going to talk about two verses today and tomorrow, kind of overlap them. |
| 0:23.0 | I'm going to go for it. Psalm 1, Blessed is the one who does not walk and step with the wicked, |
| 0:28.8 | or stand in the way that sinners take, or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the |
| 0:34.6 | law of the Lord and who meditates on his law day and night. |
| 0:39.4 | That's an interesting contrast right away. |
| 0:42.3 | And I feel like today maybe a good place to sit is how it opens up by reminding us who we bring in proximity to ourselves will determine who we become. |
| 0:57.2 | That, you know, if we ever want to get, quote, blessed, like, how do you get the blessing of God? |
| 1:03.7 | Well, a good starting point is, who are you walking with? Who are you sitting with? |
| 1:08.6 | Who are you talking with? Who are you spending your life with? |
| 1:12.6 | Because your proximity, your friendship, your circle, the people that advise you and shape you, they inform you and they form you, |
| 1:23.6 | that's going to be one of the singular most important indicators of where your life is going. |
| 1:31.3 | Who you're walking with will let me know where you're going. |
| 1:34.3 | Who you're sitting with will let me know who you will become. |
| 1:37.3 | Who you're talking with will let me know what's going on in your inner world. |
| 1:40.3 | And so if you want to change who you are, change who you're around. |
| 1:43.3 | If you want to change where you're going, change who you're walking with. I'm want to change who you are, change who you're around. If you want to |
| 1:44.6 | change where you're going, change who you're walking with. I'm going to change who you're |
| 1:47.8 | becoming, change who you're letting invest and influence your life. It's just a great starting point. |
| 1:53.1 | That's a very practical and basic reminder in life. In the business world, they talk about how you |
| 1:58.6 | become the sum total of the five most important relationships in your life. |
| 2:02.6 | Well, that's not a new idea. |
