Podcasts about fear of the lord

We're not just watching history—we're living in the middle of God's unfolding purposes. In this message, Pastor Allen Jackson calls us to wake up, speak up, and stand with bold faith. As he refers to Scripture from throughout the Bible, Pastor Allen teaches if you reject the Truth and you follow evil, you will face a God of wrath and anger. That's not a threat; it's awareness (Romans 2:8). As the nations rage and Israel takes center stage, we must understand our role as God's people in this unique moment. It's time to embrace responsibility, reject passivity, and align with God's eternal promises. He's moving—let's not miss it.

Pastor Charlene teaches on the difference between pride and humility.

As we dive more into what it means to live with a holy fear, there are two key aspects we need to discuss: tremble and awe. In this message, Nathan talks about the importance of trembling before the Lord, what that means, and gives several biblical examples of people throughout Scripture who trembled. If we are going to properly understand the fear of God, this concept is absolutely crucial to not only understand, but begin to prayerfully live out.

The sailors had tried everything to avoid throwing Jonah overboard, but all their collective efforts were not enough to save themselves or the ship. They prayed to Jonah's God and then they listened to Jonah's instruction, throwing him into the raging sea. Jesus, our Greater Jonah, has also been cast into the grave on our behalf, and through faith in Him we'll discover the power and provision of God. Like the sailors in Jonah's story, we'll discover the rescue of the gospel, and this saving faith becomes a shaping faith, transforming our decisions and inspiring grateful sacrifice.

As we continue our prophetic word about entering the rest of the Lord, we add how the revelation of the fear of the Lord will lead you to enter the rest of the Lord.

If we are going to properly understand the "Fear of Lord," we must discuss the difference between different kinds of fear. In this message, Nathan talks about four kinds of fear, how one of them can be good, two are always bad, and one (the Fear of the Lord) is commanded. The profound reality is that of the two main fears of God, one causes you to run from God whereas the other draws you to Him.------------» Take these studies deeper and be discipled in person by Nathan, Eric, Leslie, and the team at Ellerslie in one of our upcoming discipleship programs – learn more at: https://ellerslie.com/be-discipled/» Receive our free “Five Keys to Walking Through Difficulty” PDF by going to: https://ellerslie.com/subscribe/» For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/daily» If you have been blessed by Ellerslie, consider partnering with the ministry by donating at: https://ellerslie.com/donate/» Discover more Christ-centered teaching and resources from Nathan Johnson that will help you grow spiritually by checking out his website at: https://deeperchristian.com/

There are many places in the Bible where it says "do not fear", but what about the times when the Bible says to "fear"? In Psalm 76 we are going to look at why it's important to fear the Lord.

Empty Hands #RTTBROS #Nightlight Empty Hands, Open Hearts: The Wisdom of Being Teachable"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction." Proverbs 1:7 (KJV)There's something profoundly humbling about Solomon's opening words in Proverbs. Here stands the wisest man who ever lived, and his first lesson isn't about accumulating facts or winning arguments, it's about posture. The posture of fear. The posture of reverence. The posture of someone who knows they don't know it all.How often do we approach God's Word like scholars defending a thesis rather than students seeking truth? We flip through familiar passages, nodding along with verses that confirm what we already believe, while our eyes glaze over the uncomfortable ones that challenge our assumptions. We come to Scripture like lawyers building a case rather than children learning to walk.But notice what Solomon calls this alternative approach: foolishness. "But fools despise wisdom and instruction." The Hebrew word for "despise" here carries the idea of rejecting with contempt, of treating something as worthless. When we use the Bible merely to rubber-stamp our existing opinions, we're essentially saying, "I already know what I need to know. God's Word is only valuable when it agrees with me."The "fear of the LORD" that Solomon describes isn't terror, it's the breathless awe of standing before infinite wisdom and recognizing our desperate need for it. It's the difference between a cocky student who thinks they could teach the class and a hungry learner who hangs on every word because they know their life depends on understanding.This fear produces a specific kind of knowledge, not just information, but transformation. When we approach God's Word as learners rather than lecturers, something beautiful happens: we discover truths that make us uncomfortable, and that discomfort becomes the very place where growth occurs.Consider how often Jesus had to correct people who thought they had God figured out. The Pharisees knew their Scriptures backward and forward, yet missed the Messiah standing right in front of them. They had turned God's Word into a weapon for their arguments rather than a mirror for their hearts."Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." Proverbs 3:5-6 (KJV)Here's the invitation: to come before God with empty hands and an open heart. To let His Word shape our opinions rather than forcing our opinions onto His Word. To embrace the uncomfortable verses alongside the comforting ones, knowing that God's wisdom often looks foolish to our limited perspective.Reflection Questions:- When you read Scripture, are you more often surprised by what you find, or do you find exactly what you expected?- What biblical truths make you uncomfortable, and how might God be using that discomfort to teach you?- How can you cultivate a "fear of the LORD" that leads to genuine learning rather than mere confirmation?Prayer:Lord, help us to come before Your Word not as experts but as students, not as judges but as those being judged by Your truth. Give us the humility to let Your wisdom reshape our thinking, even when it challenges our comfortable assumptions. May we truly fear You, not in terror, but in the awe-struck recognition that You alone have the words of eternal life.

As we begin our new series on the awful (awe-filled) fear of the Lord, we examine the “why” behind the series, our misunderstanding of the fear of God, and why it is so important for Christians to have a proper fear of the Lord in our lives. Nathan also gives a broad overview of the word “awful” and why he chose to include in the series title. In short, this session lays a foundation for the entire series and calls us all to take a step forward into the wonder of who our God is. ------------» Take these studies deeper and be discipled in person by Nathan, Eric, Leslie, and the team at Ellerslie in one of our upcoming discipleship programs – learn more at: https://ellerslie.com/be-discipled/» Receive our free “Five Keys to Walking Through Difficulty” PDF by going to: https://ellerslie.com/subscribe/» For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/daily» If you have been blessed by Ellerslie, consider partnering with the ministry by donating at: https://ellerslie.com/donate/» Discover more Christ-centered teaching and resources from Nathan Johnson that will help you grow spiritually by checking out his website at: https://deeperchristian.com/

Scripture References: Matthew 10:5-31, Proverbs 1:7, Proverbs 3:13-18, Proverbs 10:27, Proverbs 14:26-27, Proverbs 15:16, Psalm 19:9, Psalm 25:12-14, Psalm 31:19-20, Psalm 34, Isaiah 33:6, 1 Samuel 21, Ephesians 4:17-18, Colossians 2:3Intro:Good morning, everyone! We're diving into Matthew chapter 10 today, drawing wisdom from Jesus, Solomon (from Proverbs), and David (from the Psalms) to understand the fear of the Lord. We'll see how this powerful concept can actually free us from all our other fears.Key Points:Jesus' Bizarre Halftime Speech (Matthew 10):Jesus sends out His disciples with a message of the Kingdom, healing, and deliverance.But then the message takes a dark turn: "I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves."He warns of persecution, betrayal, and hatred, yet astonishingly commands, "Do not fear those who kill the body... Rather fear Him who can destroy both soul and body in hell."This isn't a typical pep talk, but a profound invitation to a greater fear that delivers from lesser ones.The Fear of the Lord: The Beginning of Wisdom:Proverbs 1:7 famously states, "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction."This "fear" isn't a cowering dread but a reverent awe that leads to friendship with God (Psalm 25:14) and is described as "clean" and "enduring forever" (Psalm 19:9).It's a treasure that brings stability, strength, and life (Isaiah 33:6, Proverbs 10:27, 14:27).Fear's Grip: Lessons from David (1 Samuel 21 & Psalm 34):Even heroes like King David succumbed to fear, running, hiding, lying, pretending madness, and forgetting God's faithfulness.Fear often leads us to strongholds – places we seek for safety that become captivity. It makes us huddle with those just like us.Psalm 34 is David's testimony and sermon after God delivered him from his fears.Fear is a faith revealer: It exposes what we boast in, what we magnify. To be free, we must boast in and magnify God (Psalm 34:1-3).A Greater Fear Delivers from Lesser Fears:Just as the fear of rejection might make you jump off a bridge, or the fear of losing a child makes you brave the ocean, a greater fear can trump lesser fears.The fear of the Lord is not a fear of Him, but a fear of going without Him—a reverent submission that keeps us in step with Him.This fear leads to refuge in God (Psalm 31:19-20), obedience, and faithfulness. It frees us from the compromise that worldly fears demand.Conclusion:The idea that "the only thing to fear is fear itself" is a lie. The one thing we should fear is the Lord. And in this divine exchange, when we fear Him most, He delivers us from all other lesser fears, leading us to abundant life and wisdom.Call to Action:As we come to the table, let's ask God to expose the fears that reveal what we've put our faith in. Let's boast in Christ's sacrifice, knowing He's made a way for us to live free from fear's influence. Receive His broken body, and ask for a healthy fear of the Lord – one that is pure, clean, endures forever, and leads to fullness of life.

Colonel Jeff Williams draws from Job 28 and other Scripture to consider the fear of the Lord as the beginning of true wisdom. Emphasizing that human achievement cannot attain divine understanding, he underscores how wisdom is granted only by God's grace. The fear of the Lord is presented not only as the start of knowledge but also as a guiding light for all of life's vocations and decisions.Q1: Did you get a chance to witness to the Russians or others during your space flights?Q2: Did going to space change your relationship with God or affect your faith?Q3: (From the back of the room, summarized as a general question about applying wisdom in a fallen world, possibly in government or vocational settings.) Can Christians effectively live out wisdom in corrupt or difficult environments? ★ Support this podcast ★

Clair, our Community Outreach and Prayer Ministry Director, delves into the book of Proverbs and the life of King Solomon. We're reminded that true wisdom isn't just about knowledge, but about applying God's truth in our lives. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, but this 'fear' isn't about terror - it's about awe and reverence. We're challenged to consider: Are we seeking worldly wisdom or godly wisdom? The world tells us to climb higher, but God's wisdom often calls us to go lower and be humble. This countercultural approach to wisdom invites us to trust in God rather than ourselves, to boast in our weaknesses, and to recognize that Jesus is the hero of our story, not us. As we embrace this biblical wisdom, we're encouraged to ask God for it generously, knowing He gives without finding fault. This wisdom isn't just for our benefit, but for the flourishing of those around us too.
