Passage: Psalms

Questions
1. How can a person get counsel from God?
2. What does your heart instruct you to do in regards to viewing web
porn?
3. What does it mean to have God at your right hand?
Helpful Hints
Some people are shaken by the seemingly overwhelming temptation to
view web porn. Even when they want to say no, the temptation is very strong. How did the
writer of this Bible passage learn to say no to temptation? He used the counsel of God and
stayed so close to God (at his right hand) that he would not be shaken. The lesson for all
of us is to stay close to God and allow His counsel to direct us. Even when there is a
temptation, it will not be so overwhelming.
