Does how we pray matter to God? In Part 1 we discussed these 2 principles: the importance of approaching God with humility, and praying with the right motive.

Psalm 112 tells us about two kinds of fear. This chapter leans into both kinds, and it also tells us that these two fears cannot co-exist. They are like oil and water. Everyone is fearing something.
