Have you ever feared(reverenced) God to the point where you did not want to cause harm(verbal,physical,emotional) or damage to that which belonged to God? Psalm 24:1 states "The earth is the LORD'S, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein." Have you ever loved your family to the point where you would never do anything toward those things which God loved, because it could ultimately interrupt (hinder) the favor of God for your family. As I sit here and write there is a question which comes to my mind which is "can bitter and sweet come from the same source?" They which truly fear God do not seek to cause harm to those things which God loves.
The longer I live the more I begin to observe the lack of reverential fear that people have toward God. The fear of God causes me to be convicted in my heart when I misrepresent the God I say I love. The power of fear keeps me from doing or saying certain things which I know will cause harm to those who God loves (John 3:16 states "for God so loved the world"). The power of fear is the pre-condition which causes me to confess and repent to God and ask for his forgiveness when I disappoint him. The power of fear causes me to be uncomfortable in the presence of those who lack fear(respect) toward God. My prayer is that the fear of God will penetrate(pierce) the hearts of men in these last and evil days.
