Blessed is the Man …” Psalm 1:1 KJV
How blessed is the Man … “ Psalm 1:1 NASB
In Psalm 1, the blessed man exhibited many notable character traits. Links can be found with each of the four Gospel records, reminding us that all was found in Christ. While Psalm 1 is not, by strict definition, a Messianic Psalm, only myopic vision would fail to see Christ at the very threshold of the Psalter. Israel was singing of her Messiah long before He came.
Matthew
The Blessed Man of Psalm 1 recalls the “Blessed is the man …” statements of Matthew 5. What is stated there was true of the Lord Jesus in every detail. He was lowly in spirit, hungered and thirsted after righteousness and died to procure it for humanity. He was found as the peacemaker. He was meek and merciful, pure in heart and a Man of sorrows (a mourner). All that should mark the sons of the Kingdom was seen in its fullness in the Lord of the Kingdom Himself.
Mark
“Whatsoever He doeth shall prosper.” The words of the people concerning the Lord Jesus bear witness to this great truth: “He hath done all things well” (Mark 7:37). All to which He put His hand prospered. Every word from His lips accomplished His purpose. His deeds of mercy and of miraculous power, His touches of kindness and tears of sympathy, all prospered in their mission. All that He did as the perfect Servant, He did well. 
Luke
“Bringing forth His fruit in season” is instinctively linked with Luke and the fruitful Man. We see Him as a boy of 12, and His fruit was precious to God. He did not debate with the scholars in the Temple, but all could not help but be impressed by His understanding and answers. And then, “He went down and was subject to them.” What grace! We trace Him in His manhood and see fruit in keeping with His maturity and audience. He knew how to speak a “word in season.” He did “nothing out of season.” He not only did what was right but did it at the right time, in the right manner, and with the right motive. He was “fruitful in every good word and work.”
Bearing fruit is a God-honouring activity; bearing fruit in season is God glorifying. He was the fruitful Vine which needed no pruning. Nothing could have been done in a better manner, with a purer motive, or at a more opportune time.
John
“His delight is in the law of the Lord.” There can be little doubt that this statement echoes the very message which courses through John’s Gospel. “I delight to do Thy will.” His meat was to do His will; He came down from heaven to do His will. And in the shadow of the cross, He could speak of having completed the work He had been given to accomplish.
“In His law, He meditates day and night.” The holy mind of Christ was filled with the Word of God. He is the Word and thus, did not have to recall Scripture. He lived and breathed Scripture. It was His answer to every challenge and to all the cavilling from His opponents. He did not struggle to know which Scripture to cite. All was in readiness from His lips as He was “meditating in the law of the Lord, day and night.”
Consider:
How would you apply verse 6 to the Lord Jesus? “The Lord knoweth the way of the righteous?” Is there a link here with Matthew 11:25-27?
