The Fear of the Lord Brings Blessing
The Fear of the Lord is a profound reverence and awe towards God
“Praise the Lord! Blessed is the man who fears the Lord, who greatly delights in his commandments!” (Psalm 112:1 ESV)
Look what the Bible says will happen “if” you fear the Lord and obey His commandments.
“If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God that I command you today, by loving the Lord your God, by walking in his ways, and by keeping his commandments and his statutes and his rules, then you shall live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to take possession of it.” (Deut. 30:16)
“God shall bless us; let all the ends of the earth fear him!” (Psalm 67:7 ESV)
Like a tree planted by the water
“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.” (Jer. 17:7-8 ESV)
Watch out!
“Blessed is the one who fears the Lord always, but whoever hardens his heart will fall into calamity.” (Prov. 28:14 ESV)
Therefore
“Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!” (Psalm 34:8 ESV)
“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.” (Num. 6:24-26 ESV)
