The fear of the Lord (Part 4):

  • “*In the fear of Jehovah is strong hope*, and His sons shall have a place of refuge.” (Proverbs 14.26).

The strong hope is and stay in the fear of Jesus. Cut yourself out of all activity that make your walk toward Christ elusive. For example: activities that will do you to have motives to tell Jesus on somebody.

Remember Job:

  • “And Jehovah said to Satan, Have you set your heart against My servant Job, because there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and upright man, *one who fears God and turns away from evil*?” (Job 1.8).
  • “And Jehovah said unto Satan, Have you set your heart on My servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, *one who fears God and turns away from evil*? And still he is keeping hold of his integrity, although you moved Me against him to destroy him without cause.” (Job 2.3).

See that he veers away from evil. Instead of trying to quarrel in order to put the things in a way that we imagine bringing in us the joy, seek out your relish only in Christ. It is time-wasting and grueling to try to "squeeze elation" out of people or material goods. Jesus didn’t pick these things for our gaiety, but so that His happiness in us makes us to came up with ways of Jesus manifesting His eclectic grace and mercy (Eph 3.10; 1Peter 4.10) that make every one surrounding us jubilant.

  • “*The fear of Jehovah is the instruction of wisdom*, and before honor is humility.” (Proverbs 15.33).

The instruction that the wisdom give us is one of the concepts of “fear of Jesus”. That is to say, if we desire to have a magnificent weekend, we need to be circumspect and don’t circumvent the instructions the Jesus, the true Wisdom of the Creator (Col 2.3), convey us. Can be sure: don’t exist other way of sorting out the problems out of Luke 9.23.
