There are threefold blessings revealed in our text for the man who fears the LORD. These blessings are at the personal, family and national levels. The personal blessings include having food to eat, being happy and living in a state of wellbeing. The family blessings include having a wife that shall be fruitful in bearing children and having children that shall be healthy and useful like growing olive plants. Again, the man will live long enough to see his grandchildren. The national blessings include seeing the prosperity of the nation.
With all of these blessings, it becomes crucial to find out what it requires to fear the LORD. It requires respect and honouring Him, repentance from sinful behaviours, walking in His ways, following Him wherever He leads, having a personal relationship with Him, and being obedient to His will and purposes. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Psa.111:10a).
The fear of the Lord is to hate evil, pride and arrogance (Prov.8:13). Do you really fear the Lord with your whole heart? Decide today to fear God and be blessed by Him. Will you humble yourself to acknowledge Him as your Father?
PRAYER: Father put your fear in my heart and teach me your ways inJesus’Name. Amen.
