Psalm Chapter 128 KJV
King James Version, Holy Bible
1 Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in his ways.
2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.
3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.
5 The Lord shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.
Psalms Chapter 128 Devotional: THE FEAR OF THE LORD
Thought for the day: The man that fears the Lord is blessed.
Message:
The totality of this kingdom is the law of sowing and reaping. Every situation and character has its reaped result. This chapter is dedicated as a reward to a man that fears the Lord.
The fear of the Lord is a seed that commands the blessing. The fear of the Lord is a seed that commands power and authority. You cannot fear God and be put to shame because the Lord has promised Zion's blessing to the person that fears the Lord.
Another promise of God I noticed in this chapter is the generational blessing. When a man fears the Lord, the blessing is released over him and his generation.
Psalm 128: 3 “Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.” Everybody in the family is blessed because a man fears the Lord.
Throughout the scripture, we have amazing promises of God over a man that fears the Lord. I need to emphasize this more for you to know that whatever a man is doing is a seed. It is better to sow the best seed; and this best is done in the fear of the Lord.
See some verses: Proverb 9:10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
Proverb 14:27 The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
When a man fears the Lord, the Lord takes full charge of his life, he cannot be wasted anyhow because his life depends on God.
Principle of a man that fears the Lord:
· He fears God at all time.
· He loves what God loves.
· He hates what God hates.
· He is not independent of himself, his move depends on the direction of God.
Blessing attached to a man that fears the Lord
· Blessing from Zion
· Generational blessings
· Safety and security
· Wisdom beyond expression
· Divine fruitfulness
My Counsel:
Ø Make sure you fear the Lord in every journey of your life.
Ø Never allow any situation to make you turn away from God.
Declaration
Father, I declare that you are the Lord over me, I submit to your Lordship. Please help me to do your will in Jesus' Name.
