'Righteous People Do Not Live In Fear.'
Isaiah 51:7-8.
a) The Lord wants the people who know what is correct to hear Him.
b) These people have taken the Lord's Instructions into their hearts.
c) These people should not fear the reproach of men.
d) These people should not be terrified by the insults of others.
e) For those people who are against God's People: the moth will eat them up as a garment and the worm will devour them like wool.
f) God's Righteousness will be forever.
g) God's Salvation will last through all generations.
(This QT reminds me that Righteous People Do Not Live In Fear)

'It Is Still Proper Today.'
Exodus 18:7.
a) Moses went out to meet his father-in-law. (He did not just wait for him to come in)
b) Moses bowed down and kissed his father-in-law.
c) Moses and his father-in-law asked each other about their well-being.
d) Then. (After the initial greetings)
e) They went into the tent.
(This Second one reminds me about welcome and hospitality in Bible Days, that It Is Still Proper Today)

Chris.
God will deal with those people who are against His People in His Way. We should never have to struggle with hatred going on in our hearts. Just as God said to Isaiah, so He also says to us, we are to let Him deal with those who oppose us in His Way. Our God is omniscient, our Prayers do not enlighten Him, they should bring us closer to Him.
