Overview
Psalm 112 describes the character and blessings of the man who fears the Lord. He is generous, righteous, and "shall not be afraid of evil tidings."
CONTEMPORARY APPLICATIONS
1. Steadfastness in Bad News: The righteous person is not shaken by "evil tidings" because his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord (v. 7).2. Generosity: He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor (v. 9). Godly character is evidenced by a lifestyle of giving.
