—Psalm 112
by: Grace Crouch.
It is easy to read and interpret this chapter as being about strictly material blessings of the righteous. Take a few moments to focus on two things. First, how does this passage define a righteous person? What is it about their character that earns them the title of “righteous?” Second, what material and non-material blessings are listed? It seems to me that much of the list of what defines the man is also the list of his blessings. They are mingled together. He delights in God’s commandments. He is gracious, compassionate, just, never shaken, fears no evil, has a steadfast heart, and trusts the Lord. List some of your righteous blessings today.
