Psalm 112: Not afraid of evil news

Read Psalm 112:1-10 before you meet.

In a few lines

The man who fears the LORD (112:1) "will not be afraid of evil news" (112:7): in Hebrew fears and afraid are one verb. And a line Psalm 111 says of the LORD, "His righteousness endures forever" (Psalm 111:3), comes back twice about the man who fears him (112:3, 112:9).

The verse to carry

“He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.”

Psalm 112:7

To talk about

  1. 1. "He will not be afraid of evil news" (112:7). What kind of news are you most afraid of hearing, and what would a steadfast heart look like if it came?

  2. 2. The psalm's man "deals graciously and lends" (112:5) and "has given to the poor" (112:9). Where is one place this week you could be generous with what you have?

  3. 3. "His heart is established" (112:8). When things around you are shaken, what helps your heart stay steady?
