The Fear of the Lord
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Proverbs 1:7
True wisdom starts with reverence for God. When we acknowledge Him as the source of all understanding, we open our hearts to His guidance. The world offers knowledge, but only God gives wisdom that leads to life. To fear the Lord is to grapple with his magnitude awesomeness and in light of that honor, trust, and obey Him. Those who reject His wisdom walk in darkness, but those who seek Him gain insight and discernment. Today, let us humbly submit to God’s wisdom, seeking His truth in every decision. In Him, we find the foundation for a life of purpose and peace.
Heavenly Father, you are an all consuming fire, holy, and we are not able to fully grasp who you are. In your mercy, you have revealed yourself through the prophets and your Son. As we surrender to you, may we trust and obey you, in Jesus name amen.
