FAITH CAPSULE:<\/b> When we fear God He will always find us out.<\/p>\n
Proverbs 14<\/p>\n
<\/i><\/b>Fear of God is different from the fear which is: a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc., whether the threat is real or imagined; the feeling or condition of being afraid. Fear of God is to have an overwhelming feeling of reverence or admiration for God. It is a blessing to fear God and not the author of wickedness and his wicked agents. When we fear God He will always find us out. He who fears the wicked one will be found out by the wicked one.
\nThe situation which one fears will find one out. Job was testified by God, \u201c\u2026Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil?\u201d (Job 1:8) <\/i><\/b>Can anyone imagine a man of great stature in the hand of God being reduced by fear? After the death of his children he gave his testimonies, \u201cFor the thing I greatly feared has come upon me, and what I dreaded has happened to me.\u201d (Job 3:25)<\/i><\/b> It is possible to be afraid but one should not be reduced by fear.
\nWithout the fear of God there is no seeking God. Seeking God is serving God. One must know (not know about) the fear of God to serve God. Serving God is worshiping God. (Worshiping God is non-stop as long as there is breath of life) Worshiping God is sacrifice. Not every sacrifice is reasonable before God. Reasonable sacrifice is one that is rooted in the fear of God.
\nDo you know what it is to fear God? How do you know the one you do not study?
\nIt is written, \u201cThe Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek God. They have all turned aside, they have together become corrupt; there is none who does good, no, not one.\u201d (Psalm 14:2-3)<\/i><\/b> Get the understanding to fear God. The wisdom to fear God rests in the heart of one who has knowledge and understanding to fear God.
\nKing David a man identified by God as one after God\u2019s own heart volunteered to teach the fear of the Lord when he stated, \u201cCome, you children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD.\u201d (Psalm 34:11)<\/i><\/b> David knew what he was up to when he made his statement to the ones who has ear to hear. The fear of God kept him and saw him through life\u2019s terminating challenges.
\nWithout doubt, to know and to fear God is encased in knowing Him through His testimony, His testimony is His word. To be hearing and knowing His word is having Faith. Having faith is the evidence of knowing and having the fear of God.<\/p>\n
