A Scripture and a Prayer: “Joy Comes From Obedience”

“Blessed are all who fear the Lord, who walk in obedience to him.” (Psalm 128:1)

Prayer:

Lord, I realize that to fear You is not to tremble in fear, but it is to see You in all Your holiness and righteousness, and to then to bow down in reverence before You. And such reverence calls for walking in the way You have set forth in Your word. And when we do, then Your promise is that we will prosper in You, and that You will prolong our days. Therefore, Lord, may Your goodness and love follow us as we follow You all the days of our lives, and may we dwell in Your house forever. AMEN
