Psalms 111-113 - Worthy to Be Feared

Aug 20, 2025    Ray Jaramillo

In this exploration of Psalms 111-113, we discover the profound connection between knowing God and fearing Him. The Psalmist beautifully illustrates how understanding God's character and works naturally leads to a reverent awe - the fear of the Lord. This isn't a cowering fear, but a deep respect that compels us to follow His ways. As we delve into God's mighty acts throughout history, from Abraham to Joseph to the Exodus, we're reminded that the same God who performed these wonders is still at work today. This realization transforms our perspective, turning our 'have to' into 'get to' when it comes to following God's commandments. The message challenges us to examine our own hearts: Do we truly delight in God's ways? Are we allowing our knowledge of Him to shape our actions and attitudes? It's a call to move beyond surface-level faith into a life-altering relationship with our Creator.
