Psalm 112:6-9
For he will never be upended; others will always remember one who is just. He does not fear bad news. He is confident; he trusts in the Lord. His resolve is firm; he will not succumb to fear before he looks in triumph on his enemies. He generously gives to the needy; his integrity endures. He will be vindicated and honored.
Psalm 112:1 says, "Praise the Lord! Blessed is the man who fears the Lord, Who delights greatly in His commandments." Today's verse describes some attributes, side effects, and promises that will surely be true of and reach those who fear the Lord and delight in Him! Just some of those things are: never shaken, remembered forever, not afraid of evil, a steadfast heart, ability to trust in the Lord, gives to the poor, and is exalted with honor. It's clear from this verse that God has plans to bless those who are willing to heed His commands and follow Christ. Lord God, shatter the lies we believe about You and let us worship You in Spirit and in Truth. Lead us to the full knowledge of Your will for us and help us surrender everything to Jesus!
