No Fear Of God, No Love For God!

Where there is no fear of God there is no love for God.

These are two sides of the same coin.

Scripture tells us that Christ Jesus delighted in the fear of the Lord. 

(Isaiah 11:3)

Scripture tells us that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

(Proverbs 9:10)

God Almighty is Holy and cannot change. Everything in Heaven is holy.

Nothing defiled can enter Heaven.

God calls us to be perfect as He is prefect. (Matthew 5:48)

This is the awesome requirement of God Almighty for each of us.

How can we achieve this requirement? We cannot.

Only Christ Jesus can achieve this.

Only by allowing Christ to live in and through us are we be acceptable to God;

Only by our submission to His will and His Way.

It is Christ in us our hope of glory and nothing less. (Titus 2:13)

King David was a man after God's own heart. (1 Samuel 13:13-14)

The Psalms attest to the depth of his heart toward God.

He feared and loved God.

The Bride Of Christ is a woman after God's own heart.

She worships her great God in Spirit and in Truth

She gives up her life in this life to obtain His LIFE.

She lives by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.

She pursues God as the greatest treasure there could be.

She is full of the oil of the Holy Spirit.

She uses those giftings God has given her.

She knows God and is known by God.

She fears and loves God.

God said to the Israelites:

'Oh, that their hearts would be inclined to fear me

And keep all my commands always,

So that it might go well with them and their children forever! 

(Deuteronomy 5:29)

[Fear of God is the motivation to keep His commandments.

If one loves this fear, then he understands as he ought to.]

Moses told the Israelites:

'The Lord commanded us to obey all these decrees

And to fear the Lord our God,

So that we might always prosper and be kept alive,

As is the case today. (Deuteronomy 6:24)

The fear of the Lord leads to LIFE:

Then one rests content, untouched by trouble. (Proverbs 19:23)

He (God) will be the sure foundation for your times,

A rich store of salvation and wisdom and knowledge;

The fear of the Lord is the key to this treasure. (Isaiah 33:6)

Therefore my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—

Not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—

Continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling,

For it is God who works in you to will 

And to act according to his good purpose. (Philippians 2:12-13)

Today, why is our nation and the nations of the world falling apart?

They have lost the fear of the Lord.

Wherever there is no fear of God the devil rules 

And there is confusion and chaos;

There is stealing, killing and destroying.

Wherever there is no fear of God there is no love of God.

Where there is no love for God all is hopeless.

Nevertheless, there is all hope for those of us who fear and love God. Hallelujah!
