1 Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in his ways.
The Condition - 1 Blessed,
The Connection - is every one
The Conviction - that feareth the Lord;

2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands,
happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

It's A Practical Work - the labour of thine hands:
It's A Positive Work - happy shalt thou be,
It's A Productive Work - and it shall be well with thee.
3. The Believer's Wealth
3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house:
thy children like olive plants round about thy table
The Comradery - 3 Thy wife, The Capacity - shall be as a fruitful vine
The Constancy - by the sides of thine house:
The Consistency - thy children like olive plants
The Conformity - round about thy table.
