Righteous, Blessed Ones<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Psalm 112 tells us about the righteous ones, which you are if you have accepted Jesus as your Savior.\u00a0 Today we will speak that Psalm over ourselves.\u00a0 It is a very specific description of who we are and what we have in the midst of a world full of wickedness.\u00a0 Meditate on this Psalm until you see yourself as that person God describes in this scripture.<\/p>\n<p>I praise You, Lord.\u00a0 I am blessed as a man\/woman that reveres and worships You, Lord.<\/p>\n<p>I delight greatly in Your commandments (Word).<\/p>\n<p>My seed, my offspring shall be mighty upon the earth.<\/p>\n<p>I am upright and my generation shall be blessed.<\/p>\n<p>Wealth and riches shall be in my house and my righteousness endures forever.<\/p>\n<p>Light arises in the middle of the darkness for me as God\u2019s righteous one.<\/p>\n<p>I am gracious and full of compassion and in right standing with God.<\/p>\n<p>It is well with me.\u00a0 I show favor, deal generously and lend.<\/p>\n<p>I conduct my affairs with justice and discretion.<\/p>\n<p>I will not be moved forever.<\/p>\n<p>I as God\u2019s righteous one shall be in everlasting remembrance.<\/p>\n<p>I shall not be afraid of evil tidings.<\/p>\n<p>My heart is firmly fixed, trusting in the Lord.\u00a0 I am leaning on Him and I am confident in Him.<\/p>\n<p>My heart is established and steady.<\/p>\n<p>I will not be afraid, until I see my desire upon my enemies.<\/p>\n<p>I have distributed freely.\u00a0 I have given to the poor and needy.<\/p>\n<p>My righteousness with God endures forever.<\/p>\n<p>My horn, emblem of excessive strength and power, shall be exalted with honor.<\/p>\n<p>The wicked man will see it (my righteousness and power and authority) and be grieved and angered.<\/p>\n<p>He will gnash his teeth and disappear in despair.<\/p>\n<p>The desire of the wicked shall perish and come to nothing.<\/p>\n<p>What do we see in this Psalm?<\/p>\n<p>We as God\u2019s righteous children do not have to be afraid or troubled.<\/p>\n<p>Our hearts are to be firmly fixed and trusting in the Lord.<\/p>\n<p>He alone is the One with the power and strength and authority, and He has given it to us.<\/p>\n<p>We do not have to fear the wicked, for they shall perish and come to nothing.<\/p>\n<p>We can praise God and worship Him and delight greatly in His Word.\u00a0 He is our Light and our Salvation.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kspministries.org\/wordpress\/2013\/04\/30\/pearls-of-wisdom-04-30-2013\/\" title=\"Continue reading &rarr;\">Continue
