(Amplified) Psalm 1:1-3 “BLESSED, (HAPPY, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes], nor stands [submissive and inactive] in the path where sinners walk nor sits down [to relax and rest] where the scornful [and the mockers] gather.
2 But his delight and desire are in the law of the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God) he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day and by night.
3 And he shall be like a tree firmly planted [and tended] by the streams of water, ready to bring forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not fade or wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity].”

As you keep your thoughts in line with God’s thoughts
As you do what God’s word says to do
God Himself promises that you will “not fade or wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity].”

Does this mean that you will become rich and perhaps famous?
I believe it means that we, as followers of Christ can expect to be:

Rich in our relationship with God ~

Rich with the knowledge that we are given living water – the Holy Spirit promised by the Lord Jesus to all who have turned to Him, believing Him to save us ~

Rich with being a child of God the Father ~

Rich with being given counsel and guidance as we daily look to Him and His instructions through His word, the Holy Bible ~
