Fear of God

As people of God, we are called to fear the Lord. This does not mean that we walk around every day expecting Him to punish us or cause us harm. It means that we should respect His power and reverence His authority.

The word "fear" implies submissive honor, not panic or horror. We know that God is all powerful, but He is also our loving heavenly Father who cares for us.

Perfect submission to God's Word (His will) is the best way to show that we fear Him. Anything else is just lip service.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, help me to be submissive to Your Word and to Your will. To fear You and to honor You in all I do.
