Proverbs 1:7 (NKJV) 7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
In all of our seeking, chasing and pursuing, there is one thing that needs to come first.
The fear of the Lord.
We can seek to understand as much as possible about God and who He is.
We can obtain college degrees in so many different areas of expertise.
We can become a leader in our community, our state, province or city.
We can have hundreds of friends (if that’s even possible).
But if we don’t fear God, everything else is in vain.
A reverent fear of God is the beginning of all wisdom. If we revere Him and fear Him, we will put everything else in its proper place and perspective.
If we fear Him, it will help keep us from falling into things that are contrary to His word.
If we fear Him and put Him first, so many other things in our lives will fall into place.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.
