Psalm 112 ~ Blessed

Psalm 112

Praise the Lord!

Blessed is the man who fears the Lord,

who greatly delights in his commandments!

2 His offspring will be mighty in the land;

the generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches are in his house,

and his righteousness endures forever.

4 Light dawns in the darkness for the upright;

he is gracious, merciful, and righteous.

5 It is well with the man who deals generously and lends;

who conducts his affairs with justice.

6 For the righteous will never be moved;

he will be remembered forever.

7 He is not afraid of bad news;

his heart is firm, trusting in the Lord.

8 His heart is steady;  he will not be afraid,

until he looks in triumph on his adversaries.

9 He has distributed freely; he has given to the poor;

his righteousness endures forever;

his horn is exalted in honor.

10 The wicked man sees it and is angry;

he gnashes his teeth and melts away;

the desire of the wicked will perish!

Choose this Day, Whom you will Serve!

The Jews prior to the birth, life, ministry and resurrection of Jesus - knew earthly blessings were the gauge in the depth of your salvation in God. The Disciples asked Jesus after He declared it was impossible for the rich to be saved and Jesus said, "All Things Are Possible with God."

Sometimes life is no bed of roses, no pleasure cruise.

The Beatitudes probably really puzzled the Disciples. And were answered. All Things are Possible with God.

Proverbs 30:5

Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.





Matthew 4:4

Jesus replied, 
It has been written, 
Man shall not live and be upheld and sustained by bread alone, 

but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of God.

There are religious denominations globally picking the wealthy from the laity to be Bishops - saying the wealth is an indication of piety and holiness. Jesus gave us the Beatitudes to include the people in affliction. 

A very worthwhile point of Psalm 112 is the self esteem in standing firm to please God in all circumstances! God is Love. Worthy.

Abba,

You have given us Jesus. We are blessed. Fed and nourished by Your Word of Life in Jesus and in our worship. We Live by Your Willing Blessings. We are Blessing seekers and Blessing finders.

For all of us who were baptized into Christ have clothed ourselves with Christ!
Blessed with Numbers 6, Blessed by the prayer given to Moses. We are clothed in the Name of Jesus.

In Jesus our Righteousness. There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for we are all one in Christ Jesus. And in Belonging to Jesus Christ, then we are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the Promise.

Jesus has healed them all. We attain to Jesus Christ. Hold firm in Faith.

Placing the Love God is in Jesus Christ upon us and our cares are lifted.

God is Love and we believe with firm conviction our Loved ones are held in Great Love to Jesus.
We specifically pray for the people we love by name and healing from our friend with cancer to be fully restored.

God is Merciful and we believe God holds our Nation and gives His Willing Blessings to a Nation Trusting in Him.

God is Encouragement to the Nations rising to His Brightness in Jesus Christ.

God sees His Creation as Good in His Joy the world over is praying for more Heaven on this earth and His Good Will. A Certain Blessing.

In Jesus we rest in our Living and our Working God. Amen and Amen.

♔ Lord Jesus Saves! †
