FAITH CAPSULE: This season, fear God to experience the glory of God.
Ecclesiastes 12
Faith is in hearing the word of God.
Faith is the source of fearing God.
A failure not to fear God is in doubt, evidence of not hearing the word of God to keep.
Romans 10:17 records, “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
Without a doubt, not hearing the word of God will give fear a place in the position of faith.
All that God wants from all is to hear and have fear for Him.
Ecclesiastes 12:13 states, “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is man’s all.” Hear to fear God.
To fear God is the key to live life for His glory.
God sent Moses the importance of hearing to fear Him.
Deuteronomy 4:10 states, “…Gather the people to Me, and I will let them hear My words, that they may learn to fear Me all the days they live on the earth, and that they may teach their children.”
Hearing the word of God is crucial to having faith, to fear God by not giving oneself to fear.
The word of God through Moses for the children of Israel does not exempt all today.
God is the same before yesterday, today, and forever.
What is it denying you not to hear the word of God, to fear God?
The word of God against hindrance that denies to hear and not fear sounded for Israelites, “Then all the men of his city shall stone him to death with stones; so you shall put away the evil from among you, and all Israel shall hear and fear.” (Deuteronomy 21:21)
The force that hinders not hearing the word of God, to fear God, shall become terminated.
FEAR THE LORD GOD
Fear the Lord God, as some words in the Bible demand:
Joshua 24:14 states, “Now therefore, fear the Lord, serve Him in sincerity and truth, and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the River and in Egypt. Serve the Lord!”
Deuteronomy 10:12, “And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.”
THE EXPERIENCES WITH THE FEAR OF THE LORD
The experience of one that fears the Lord God as the Bible identifies:
Psalm 128:1, “Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord, Who walks in His ways.
Proverbs 15:33, “The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom…”
