How important is it to FEAR God? ~ Fear of God is the idea of living in respect, reverence, awe, and submission to Him as a deity. The Old and New Testaments cry out of His Mercy but equally of His Justice. Very few of this last generation know the fear of God. They only believe that God's mercy and grace allows them to do as they please. But soon they will know that each of us will give an account of our lives to God, and He is fully aware of everything we think, desire, speak, and do. The fear of the Lord is an awareness of these truths. It can be defined as a continual awareness that you are in the presence of a holy, just, and almighty God, and that every motive, thought, word, and action is open before Him and will be judged by Him.
~ And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation. ~ Luke 1:50
