The Fear Of God – Dr. Charles Stanley

If God is love, then why does He command us to fear Him?


In this message, Dr. Stanley clarifies how the fear of the Lord isn’t about being afraid of God; it’s about revering Him above all else. When we do that, we position ourselves to receive all the benefits that come with putting God first in our lives. Explore this seeming contradiction a little further and discover the truth of Dr. Stanley’s words: “The fear of the Lord is the source of every blessing imaginable.”

When we are children we "FEAR " our parents, its really respect, we love our parents respect them and fear them when we do wrong, God is the ultimate parent, who deserves the most respect

The first message I got to listen to at 4 a.m. I may not have a lot of material stuff, but if I can have a fear of the Lord 🙏🏼, happy birthday to me on this day

Jesus was not a people's pleaser, he did not mince his words. He offended a lot of people, for the truth. So it doesn't matter that you don't believe in him, that doesn't make him less real. If you don't come to him, that doesn't slow down his coming. He will come and we have to prepare a way for him.

When I was born again, I quickly shared the Gospel with my closest friends. Many have turned from me, they all have different views on how to be saved but it's no where near the Truth. One of my friends told me "you shouldn't turn to God out of fear".."you're going at it the wrong way"..I told her that verse, she distant herself from me. She's read the Bible but she completely missed the message. 💔 I came to Christ because I was lost and now my biggest fear would be losing Him. 🥺🙌💖 I love my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ..I'm so grateful for everything he is in my life. 🙏💝

Prayer:

Father, thank you for you love, your forgiveness, your kindness, and a multitude of blessings that you have store for us. Teach us all how to fear You let us not forget Your Word. Father, help and enable us to trust You when eveything around us is going wrong. Remind us Father that we have You, living inside us-- fearing You can make us fearless in anything and everbody else. And we praise you for that In Jesus Name. Amen.
