Bible Verse of The Day – 12-14-19

Proverbs 22:4 (NKJV) 4 By humility and the fear of the Lord Are riches and honor and life.

God’s Awesomeness

Awesomeness is defined as inducing or causing an overwhelming feeling of reverence.

In reality, there are no human words to describe God’s true awesomeness.

There are no adjectives to accurately communicate or convey what this really means. Maybe think of it as being so in awe that there are no words in any human vocabulary to accurately define or describe it.

Believe it or not, there is an element of fear in this that does actually refer to literally being afraid. This comes when we begin to realize and understand who God really is. He literally holds life and death in His hands.

He created everything we see. He set the worlds in motion. And He did all of this with only words. Just words!

He didn’t have to use equipment. He didn’t have to obtain supplies. He just spoke it all into existence.

Now that right there, the One who holds this incredible power, is something to be feared.

It’s when the reality and the depth of this starts to sink in that we start to understand the true fear of God. It’s not bleak or dismal. It doesn’t instill dread or torment.

It’s an incredible, awe-inspired kind of fear that has a wondrous, ultra-reverent side to it.

Psalm 33:8-9 (NLT) 8 Let the whole world fear the Lord, and let everyone stand in awe of him. 9 For when he spoke, the world began! It appeared at his command.

Monday, as we wrap up this series, we will talk about how having this incredible, reverent fear of God benefits us and impacts our lives as a whole.
