Psalm 112:1,7-8
1. Praise the Lord. Blessed are those who fear the Lord, who find great delight in his commands.

7 They will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord.
8 Their hearts are secure, they will have no fear; in the end they will look in triumph on their foes.

Proverbs chapter 1 lists four kinds of people : 1: 22 “How long will you who are simple love your simple ways? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge?”
 a. Simple
 b. Mockers
 c. Fools
 d. Those who listen to God or fear Him. V33 but whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm.”

At different points in our life, we could be one or the other kind. But whenever we fear God, we will have no fear of harm or bad news. Our hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord and will live in safety and be at ease.

Application

Remember the times when we were simple, mockers or fools and thank God for protecting us from that phase of life.
