Walk in the fear of God…not men…
So then, my beloved, even as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who worketh in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure...Philippians 2:12-13. Servants, be obedient unto them that according to the flesh are your masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; not in the way of eyeservice, as men-pleasers; but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; with good will doing service, as unto the Lord, and not unto men: knowing that whatsoever good thing each one doeth, the same shall he receive again from the Lord, whether he be bond or free...Ephesians 6:5-8.
Wherefore Come ye out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, And touch no unclean thing; And I will receive you, And will be to you a Father, And ye shall be to me sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty...2 Corinthians 6:17-18. Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God...2 Corinthians 7:1.
And be not afraid of them that kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? and not one of them shall fall on the ground without your Father: but the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. Every one therefore who shall confess me before men, him will I also confess before my Father who is in heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in heaven...Matthew 10:28-33.
I have heard it explained that F.E.A.R. = False Evidence Appearing Real. You ever been where following God seemed like it would end badly? If you ever find yourself in these circumstances then Fear God and keep His commandments…Be not wise in thine own eyes; Fear Jehovah, and depart from evil: It will be health to thy navel, And marrow to thy bones...Proverbs 3:7-8. We must remain faithful in the fear of death and never deny our Lord and Master Jesus Christ of Nazareth. So do not deny Jesus but confess Him before men and it will bless you.
Prayer
Father please help us to work out our salvation even with the Spirit of Fear of You so we can remain faithful to Your Only Son Jesus and meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal our soul’s deepest wounds In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
