Psalm 112 New Living Translation (NLT)
Do you ever read the Word of God and then sit back and ponder the great blessings that are available to those who trust and obey Him? In our passage today, we notice those who turn from doing evil and respect God’s ways are truly blessed. A few spiritual blessings I notice from our reading: joy, successful relationships, prosperity, live without fear, compassion, and generosity. Some character blessings that are developed in those who love and trust God: fairness, kindness, mercy, dependability, and influence. And let’s not forget our passage ends with the statement that God’s blessings are so great on His children, the wicked of the world can actually be jealous.
