Thoughts on Fear

Perhaps if more people were fearing God over people in a healthy and reverential way, many more would be walking in discernment over deception every single day.

🗝️The fear of people hinders fully following God.


🗝️Healthy reverential fear of God and obeying His Word brings wisdom, discernment, and protection.


🗝️The enemy cripples and holds captive those who open themselves up to a spirit of fear over the Spirit of God.


🗝️The people might be applauding, but it’s God’s approval that matters.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬ ‭NLT

For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control.
‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬ ‭Amplified Bible

I’m obviously not trying to flatter you or water down my message to be popular with men, but my supreme passion is to please God. For if all I attempt to do is please people, I would fail to be a true servant of Christ.
‭‭Galatians‬ ‭1‬:‭10‬ ‭The Passion Translation
