Proverbs 9:10 (NKJV) 10 \u201cThe fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

What is the fear of God?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The fear of God is something that is quite misunderstood. People have all kinds of ideas about what the fear of God is and what it means.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But, in addition to the misconceptions and misunderstandings about this, there are also many of us who have no real understanding at all about what it means to \u201cfear God\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We want to try to clear this up and bring understanding to this daunting topic.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Before we talk about what the fear of God is<\/em>, though, let\u2019s talk about what it isn\u2019t<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The fear of God shouldn’t cause us to walk around, cowering, constantly worried about being struck down or condemned to death the very second that we do something wrong.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The fear of God shouldn\u2019t cause us to become depressed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The fear of God shouldn’t cause us to lose sleep every night, worrying about whether we\u2019re going to be consumed by God\u2019s wrath before we wake up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The fear of God should have no negative connotations or implications in our lives as a whole.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If we wrestle with any of these things, we probably lack understanding in this area.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

God never wants us to lack understanding or be uninformed or uneducated, especially when it comes to His word and our understanding of Him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Proverbs 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

So, over the next several days, we will dig into this topic and get understanding. And by the time we\u2019re finished, we will be informed, educated and knowledgeable, bringing a deeper insight and peace to our hearts and minds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

To be continued tomorrow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
