TOPIC — Psalms 1: The Doom Of The Ungodly [RCCG Sunday School STUDENT Manual 18 October 2020]

MEMORY VERSE: “For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.” – Psalms 1:6

BIBLE PASSAGE: Psalms 1:4-6 KJV (RCCG Sunday School STUDENT Manual 18 October 2020)

4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

INTRODUCTION: The first part of Psalms one (vs.1-3) addresses the blessedness of righteous while the second part (vs.4-6) addresses the doom of the ungodly. In this lesson, we shall attempt to describe the ungodly as well as look into his doom.

LESSON OUTLINES:

  1. Description Of The Ungodly
  2. Divine Judgement Of The Ungodly

LESSON OUTLINES 1: DESCRIPTION OF THE UNGODLY

The Psalmist describes the ungodly as the reverse of the righteous both in character and condition – “The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away'(Psalms 1:4). The ungodly are not so….’ means they are led by the counsel of the wicked (Proverbs 16:27), in the way of sinners (Prov. 4:14-15), to the seat of the scornful (Proverbs 19:28). They have no delight in the law of God nor even think of it (Romans 1:28). They bring forth no fruit but grapes of Sodom (Romans 1:29-32).

Secondly, ‘….but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away’ means they are no of worth at all in God’s account, no matter how highly they value themselves (Isa. 17 13-14). They are vain and empty without the knowledge of God. (Psalms 10:4; 14:1). They have no substance in them (Nahum 2:10). They are easily driven to and fro by every wind of doctrine and temptation of Satan (Hebrews 13:9; James 1:14-15). They have no steadfastness (2 Peter 2:14-15). They have no root, moisture, greeness not fruitfulness (Mark 4:5-6). They are destitute of all that is good (Romans 7:18; Proverb 17:20a). They are sensual, not having the Spirit of God (Jude 19).

LESSON OUTLINES 1: DIVINE JUDGEMENT OF THE UNGODLY

Psalms 1:5 says “Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous”. On the day of judgement, the ungodly shall be found guilty (Psalm 9:17, Romans 1:18). They shall bow their head in shame and confusion and all their pleas and excuses shall be overruled as frivolous (Psalms 44:15; Proverb 3:35). Their future state will be determined by an irreversible sentence (Luke 13:27). ‘….not sinners in the congregation of the righteous’ means they will be driven away from the presence of God into everlasting destruction (Job 21:17; Hosea 13:3). They shall not stand in the same place with the righteous (Matthew 25:41).

Finally, Psalms 1:6 tells us that the righteous is blessed because God knows his ways. God approves and He’s well pleased with the ways of the righteous because He leads, guides and orders all his steps under the influence of grace. (Psalms 37:23). Therefore, the way of the righteous shall prosper and end well (Psalms 37:18). However, God is angry with the ungodly (Psalms 7:11) because the very way they have chosen and resolved to walk naturally tends towards destruction (Proverb 19:29, 14:2). All they do is offensive to Him, therefore, their way shall perish. (Psalms 37: 20; Jeremiah 12:3).

CONCLUSION: The activities of the righteous are wide open to God. He punishes the ungodly and rewards the righteous. (Psalms 1:6, 7:11).

QUESTIONS:

  1. Briefly describe the state of the ungodly.
  2. What judgement awaits the ungodly?

ASSIGNMENT: Describe ‘the ungodly’ in five (5) simple ways.
