Blessing: Satisfaction The fear of the LORD leads to life, And he who has it will abide in satisfaction; He will not be visited with evil.  Proverbs 19:23 NKJV

Message: Matthew Henry’s Commentary on this verse explains it so much better than I could: “See what those that get by it that live in the fear of God, and always make conscience of their duty to him.”

  “1. Safety: They shall not be visited with evil; they may be visited with sickness or other afflictions, but there shall be no evil in them, nothing to hurt them, because nothing to separate them from the love of God, or hurt to the soul.

2. Satisfaction: They shall abide satisfied; they shall have those comforts which are satisfying, and shall have a constant contentment and complacency in them. It is a satisfaction which will abide, whereas all the satisfactions of sense are transient and soon gone. Satur pernoctabit, non cubabit incoenatus-He shall not go supperless to bed; he shall have that which will make him easy and be an entertainment to him in his silent and solitary hours, (Ps. 16:6, 7)

3. True and complete happiness. Serious godliness has a direct tendency to life; to all good, to eternal life; it is the sure and ready way to it; there is something in the nature of it fitting men for heaven and so leading them to it. “

Amen!  What blessings we who fear the LORD are given!
