Psalm 147:11
Psalm 147:11
The Lord delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love.
The Lord delights in those who fear Him and place their hope in His unfailing love. This verse highlights the connection between reverence for God and hope. The fear of the Lord is not a fear of punishment but a deep respect for His holiness and authority. When we revere God, we trust in His love, knowing that it is steadfast and unfailing. Hope in God's love brings comfort, assurance, and confidence that He will fulfill His promises. This verse encourages us to cultivate a reverent heart before God, trusting that His love will never fail us and that He is always faithful to His Word. The hope found in God's love gives us the strength to endure and to live in peace.
