Fear of God

Reverent Fear Is Vital To A Well-Rounded Faith Required in the Old and New Covenants –Deut. 10:12 –2 Cor. 7:1 Based on a recognition of His power –Ex. 20:18-20 Key to Instruction, Prosperity, Wisdom and Relationship –Ps. 25:12-14

Our Fear of God Is A Motivator To Keep His Commandments –Matthew 10:28 To Glorify Him –Jeremiah 5:22 To Show Gratitude To Him –Hebrews 12:28-29 To Care For God’s People –1 Kings 18:3-4

Our Fear of God Must Be Balanced Don’t Fall For Satan’s Second Lie –Lie 1: You can disobey God. (Gen. 3:1-6) –Lie 2: You must hide from God. (Gen. 3:7-11) –“I was afraid…” (Gen. 3:10) “Behold Then The Kindness and Severity of God.” Rom. 11:17-22 –Balanced Fear Brings Joy, Confidence, & Humility Fear and Grace Work Together –Ps. 103:11, Ps. 118:4, Ps. 145:17-19, Luke 1:50, Acts 10:35,

Fear and Grace Work Together (Psalms 103:11) For as high as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His lovingkindness toward those who fear Him. (Psalms 118:4) Oh let those who fear the LORD say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting."

Fear and Grace Work Together (Luke 1:50) "AND HIS MERCY IS UPON GENERATION AFTER GENERATION TOWARD THOSE WHO FEAR HIM. (Acts 10:35) but in every nation the man who fears Him and does what is right is welcome to Him.

Perfecting Your Fear With A Perfected Love Love and Fear are both matters of faith. –Faith That God Loves and Will Reward –Faith That God Judges and Will Punish Love of Action –1 John 4:12 Love Perfected By Practice Will Cast Out Unhealthy Fear –No longer fear God as a slave, but as a son or daughter. (Rom. 8:15, 1 Pet. 1:17)

Balance Your Faith “See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.” –1 John 3:1 “The conclusion, when all has been heard, is: fear God and keep His commandments, because this applies to every person. For God will bring every act to judgment, everything which is hidden, whether it is good or evil.” –Ecclesiastes 12:13-14
