Reverential Fear of God

Reverential Fear of God

Inspired by: Joyce Meyer

Fear God, in reverential love.
God-fearing Christians know, beyond a
shadow of a doubt; if we do wrong in God's
eyes, we will be disciplined.
If we walk in Christ-like faith, doing right in
God's eyes. We will be blessed. Yes!
Drawn into a deeper and more intimate
relationship with Father God.

The Merriam Webster Dictionary;
Reverential:
"Honor and respect mixed with love and awe.
A sign (as a bow or curtsy) of respect.
Show honor and devotion to worship, adore."

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of
wisdom. And knowledge of the "Holy One."

God-fearing Christians honor and glorify
Jesus Christ of Nazareth; in "Reverential Fear."
Adorned in divine godly love.

In divine godly faith; humble, meek, true
God-fearing Christians seek the Kingdom of God,
in "Reverential Fear."
Being obedient to Jesus Christ; our
audience of One.

Christians are divinely blessed, Yes!
With godly wisdom, knowledge and
understanding in Father God's holy ways.

Walking and truly living in "Reverential Fear"
of God you find yourself living for Jesus Christ.
Living in "Reverential Fear" following Jesus
Christ's proven, holy and righteous ways.

God-fearing Christians find living water
flowing from the throne rooms of their
Christian hearts.
Blessed more and more each and every day;
with godly wisdom, a full working knowledge, and
divine Christ-like understanding.

Living a God-breathed life in "Reverential Fear;"
as Jesus, when He was here on earth teaching
and preaching His Father's righteous faultless
ways.

God-fearing Christians with pure hearts
living in "Reverential Fear" of God, will see God.
God teaches to fear Him in love.

Living as God's chosen people, proving
ourselves in "Reverential Fear" of God
as Jesus, when He was born in the flesh,
of a virgin.
In God's image.

Yes! True God-fearing Christians are fully
equipped with the fruits of the Spirit.

Living by the Spirit's Power
Galatians 5:16-26
"So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives.
Then you won't be doing what your sinful nature
craves. The sinful nature wants to do evil,
which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants.
And the Spirit gives us desires that are the
opposite of what the sinful nature desires.
These two forces are constantly fighting
each other, so you are not free to carry out your
good intentions.
But when you are directed by the Spirit you are
not under obligation to the law of Moses.

When you follow the desires of your sinful nature,
the results are very clear: sexual immorality,
impurity, lustful pleasures, idolatry, sorcery,
hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of
anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division,
envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like
these. Let me tell you again, as I have before that
anyone living that sort of life will not inherit
the kingdom of God.

But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in
our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness,
goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control.
There is no law against these things!

Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed
the passions and desires of their sinful nature to
his cross and crucified them there. Since we
are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit's
leading in every part of our lives. Let us not
become conceited or provoke one another, or be
jealous of one another."

The fruit of the Spirit is the spontaneous
work of the Holy Spirit in us. The Spirit produces
these character traits that are found in the nature
of Christ. They are the by-products of Christ's
control -- we can't obtain them by trying to get
them without his help. If we want the fruit of
the Spirit to grow in us, we must join our life to
his. We must know him, love him, remember
him, and imitate him. As a result, we will
fulfill the intended purpose of the law -- to love
God and our neighbors.
Which of these qualities do you want the Spirit
to produce in you?

By praying for guidance and godly wisdom we
are able in the full resurrection power of God;
to change "Reverential Fear" of God into
eternal "Love for God."
