Holy Fear

Psalm 112:1Amplified Bible

Prosperity of the One Who Fears the Lord.

Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!)
Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who fears the Lord [with awe-inspired reverence and worships Him with obedience], Who delights greatly in His commandments.

The world has lost all reverence to our God. They have cast him aside as something that is out of date and too restricted for these times. They have made an intention effort to have no space for him in this society.

What this world fails to understand is that true life comes from surrendering to God. That there is nothing for us apart from him.

His word promises that we will be prospered if we have that holy fear towards him and delight in his commandments.

Proverbs 9:10

Amplified Bible
The [reverent] fear of the Lord [that is, worshiping Him and regarding Him as truly awesome] is the beginning and the preeminent part of wisdom [its starting point and its essence],And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding and spiritual insight.

This is the starting point to a victorious walk with God.
