1978 YEARBOOK of Jehovah's Witnesses

"Happy are those hearing the word of God and keeping it!" In saying those words, as we find them recorded at Luke 11:28, Jesus may have had in mind the similar words of Psalm 112:1: "Happy is the man in fear of Jehovah, in whose commandments he has taken very much delight." Jesus himself was happy and took delight in obeying his Father's commandments, in hearing and observing God's Word. Jehovah's obedient servants through the years have realized that the keeping of Jehovah's law, his orders, commandments and judicial decisions brings a "large reward." Today Jehovah's Witnesses are most thankful for the privileges that come to them in representing him.
