Biblical Truth:  “Blessed is the man who fears the Lord, who finds great delight in his commands” (v. 1)

Those who fear the Lord have these blessings:

  1.  His children will be might  and his generation will be blessed (v. 2)
  2.  Wealth and riches are in his house (v. 3)
  3.  God’s light shines through darkness (v. 4)
  4.  God will come to him if he is generous and just (v. 5)
  5.  He will never be shaken and will be remembered forever (*v. 6)
  6.  He will have no fear of bad news (v. 7)
  7. His heart is secure and he will triumph over his foes (v. 8)
  8. His generosity will lift him high in honor (v. 9)

Personal Application:  Let us fear the Lord by obeying his commands

Prayer:  Lord, help us to fear you, to love you and to obey your laws[:]
