The Fear of the Lord: Reverent Trust That Shapes the Christian Life Show: Anchored in the Word (Servants of Grace Podcast)Host: Dave Jenkins Show Summary What does it mean to fear the Lord and why does it matter for everyday Christian living? In this episode of Anchored in the Word, Dave Jenkins explains that the fear of God is not terror that drives us away, but reverent trust that draws us near. The fear of the Lord produces wisdom, deepens worship, drives out lesser fears, and shapes how we read Scripture, pray, fight sin, endure trials, and live with confidence in God's unshakable kingdom. Audio Player Video Player Episode Notes Key Scriptures Psalm 111:10 Proverbs 1:7 Hebrews 12:28–29 Acts 9:31 Matthew 10:28–31 Big Idea The fear of the Lord is trusting reverence a weighty, joyful awareness of God's holiness that leads to wisdom, worship, obedience, and freedom from the fear of man. Full Article What Does It Mean to Fear the Lord? Few phrases appear as often in Scripture and are misunderstood as often as “the fear of the Lord.” Some hear that phrase and imagine dread, anxiety, or the kind of terror that makes a person run and hide. But that is not how the Bible teaches God's people to understand this fear. Psalm 111:10 says, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom.” Proverbs 1:7 adds, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Isaiah calls the fear of the Lord a treasure for God's people (Isa. 33:6). And the book of Acts describes the early church as walking “in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit” (Acts 9:31). The fear of the Lord is not presented as a passing theme, but as a foundational mark of faithful living. The Fear of the Lord Is Not Terror, but Trusting Reverence When Scripture calls believers to fear God, it is not calling us to the kind of fear that makes us run away from Him. It is the kind of fear that draws us near—because it recognizes who God is. He is holy. He is righteous. He is sovereign. He is mighty. And He is worthy of obedience, honor, and worship. In other words, the fear of the Lord is a trembling that loves God—not a terror that hides from Him. Think of Isaiah in Isaiah 6. He sees the glory of the Lord, trembles, and confesses his sin. Yet God cleanses him and sends him on mission. Or consider Peter in Luke 5. When Jesus fills the nets with fish, Peter falls down and says, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man.” Yet Jesus does not cast him away He draws him near and says, “Do not be afraid.” True fear of God humbles us, exposes our sin, and then drives us to the grace and mercy of God. The Fear of the Lord Produces Wisdom Proverbs tells us plainly that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Why? Because fearing God rightly does at least three vital things. It puts God in His proper place as holy and authoritative. Since God is God, His Word is true, His commands are good, and His ways lead to life. It puts us in our proper place as dependent and needy. We are not wise on our own. We are not strong on our own. We are not righteous on our own. But God is all these things, and He supplies what we lack. It reorients how we see the world. Life stops being about self-rule and becomes about God's rule. Life stops being about our wisdom and becomes about God's wisdom. Wisdom begins when we bow before a sovereign God as revealed in His Word. Foolishness begins when we refuse to bow to Him. The Fear of the Lord Drives Out Lesser Fears One of the great paradoxes of Scripture is this: when you fear the Lord, you fear nothing else. And when you do not fear the Lord, you fear everything else. The fear of the Lord frees us from the fear of man, the fear of the future, the fear of suffering, and the fear of death. Why? Because the God you fear is the God who saves you, keeps you, and holds you. Jesus says in Matthew 10: “Do not fear those who kill the body… rather fear Him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.” And then He immediately comforts His people by reminding them they are of more value than many sparrows. The fear of the Lord produces both sobriety and security—because God is holy, and God is also faithful. The Fear of the Lord Fuels Worship and Joyful Obedience The fear of the Lord is not cold, dry, or distant. It produces worship. It produces delight. It produces obedience rooted in love. Hebrews 12:28–29 calls believers to offer acceptable worship “with reverence and awe,” because our God is a consuming fire. God's holiness is weighty. His glory is real. His presence is not casual. A casual view of God leads to casual obedience. A weighty and biblical view of God leads to joyful obedience. This is why Acts 9:31 says the early church walked in the fear of the Lord and the comfort of the Holy Spirit not fear or comfort, but fear and comfort together. The fear of the Lord and the comfort of God are not enemies; they belong together in the Christian life. How the Fear of the Lord Shapes Everyday Christian Living What does the fear of the Lord look like on Monday morning? It shapes how you read the Word of God—you come recognizing it is God's authoritative voice. It shapes how you pray—boldly, yet humbly; confidently, yet reverently. It shapes how you fight sin—you take sin seriously because God takes sin seriously. It shapes how you love others—you aim to honor God in relationships, home, and church. It shapes how you endure trials—you rest in God's sovereignty, wisdom, and goodness even when life is painful. Walking in the fear of the Lord aligns your whole life under God's authority and God's grace as revealed in His Word not as a burden, but as a blessing. Final Encouragement Psalm 112:1 says, “Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in His commandments.” The fear of the Lord is to delight in Him. To bow before Him is to find life in Him. To reverence Him is to rest in Him. May God help each of us to walk in the fear of the Lord with reverence, with joy, with trust, and with confidence in His unshakable kingdom. Episode Highlights The fear of the Lord is not terror—it is reverent trust that draws us near to God. The fear of the Lord produces wisdom by putting God in His rightful place and us in ours. The fear of the Lord drives out lesser fears—especially the fear of man, the future, and suffering. The fear of the Lord fuels worship marked by reverence and awe, because our God is holy. The fear of the Lord shapes daily life: Bible intake, prayer, holiness, relationships, endurance, and joy. Takeaways Ask the Lord to give you a weighty view of His holiness and a warm confidence in His grace. Identify where the fear of man is controlling you—and replace it with reverent trust in God. Approach Scripture and prayer with humility, confidence, and reverence. Let the fear of the Lord produce joyful obedience rather than casual Christianity.

What does it mean to fear the Lord—and why does it matter for the Christian life? In this episode of Anchored in the Word, Dave Jenkins explains the biblical meaning of the fear of God. Contrary to common misunderstanding, the fear of the Lord is not terror that drives us away from God, but reverent trust that draws us near. Scripture teaches that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, the foundation of worship, and the pathway to joyful obedience. Drawing from passages such as Psalm 111:10, Proverbs 1:7, Hebrews 12:28–29, and Acts 9:31, this teaching shows how fearing God rightly shapes everyday Christian living—how we read Scripture, pray, fight sin, endure trials, worship, and live with confidence in God's unshakable kingdom. This episode also addresses how the fear of the Lord frees believers from the fear of man and produces wisdom, stability, and joy rooted in the Word of God.

Along the way, they name what's working—and why. Reverent worship that lets people pray without a sales pitch. Access to thoughtful sources like the Didache, the catechism, and the Church Fathers. A culture where the Holy Spirit leads and we follow with patience, courage, and love. Instead of trying to “win,” we learn to keep the door open, ask honest questions, and offer timely invitations.If you've ever wondered how to walk with someone who's curious but cautious, this episode offers a field guide. They also cover thresholds of conversion, practical tools like a simple “pick five” intercessory list, and how to speak without jargon so friends actually hear the good news. Lastly, they talk about when to be bold, when to be quiet, and how prayer reshapes hard conversations. The result is a hopeful picture of evangelization grounded in beauty, truth and real friendship.************Links and other stuff from the show:Pastoral Letter, "On the Unity of the Body and Soul:" archokc.org/pastoral-lettersRed Dirt Catholics Email Address: reddirtcatholics@archokc.orgThe Book "From Christendom to Apostolic Mission" (Digital and Print): AmazonThe Social Dilemma: https://www.netflix.com/title/81254224Daily Examen Prayer: https://bit.ly/309As8zLectio Divina How-To: https://bit.ly/3fp8UTa

In this powerful teaching, Rev. Robin-Huws Barnes explores what it truly means to walk in the fear of God — not as a ritual or legal requirement, but as a journey from fearful obedience to reverent love. The message traces the evolution of the fear of God from the Old Testament to the New Testament, showing how the concept moved from ritual fear to moral reverence and ultimately to relationship-based love through Christ Jesus. The fear of God is not about being afraid — it's about being in awe. When love becomes the motivation, obedience becomes worship. Let your reverence move from ritual to relationship, from fear to reverent love. Takeaways: Fear of God is not terror but awe-filled love that produces humility and obedience. Grace intensifies reverence — not as law, but as love responding to divine mercy. God desires your heart, not your checklist. The fear of God today is expressed through relationship, trust, and moral alignment with His character. Scriptures Referenced: Deuteronomy 6:24 – The command to fear and obey the Lord for our good. Psalm 31:19 – God's goodness laid up for those who fear Him. Psalm 33:18–19 – The eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him and hope in His mercy. Ecclesiastes 12:13 – The whole duty of man: to fear God and keep His commandments. Proverbs 8:13 – The fear of the Lord is to hate evil, pride, and arrogance. Isaiah 29:13 – A warning against worship without heart. Matthew 15:1–9 – Jesus confronts ritualism among the Pharisees. Hebrews 12:28–29 – Serving God with reverence and godly fear through grace. 2 Corinthians 5:14–15 – The love of Christ compels us. Mark 10:17–22 – The rich young ruler and the shift from rule-based obedience to relationship.
Proverbs 14:26–30 traces the full circle of wisdom—from the fortress of godly fear to the fountain of life, from stable leadership to self-control and inner peace. This Morning Manna study with Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart unveils how reverence builds confidence, patience displays understanding, and a healed heart sustains the flesh—showing that true strength begins in worship and ends in wholeness.

Send us a textIn this episode, we continue to discuss the structure or pattern of the church. We noted in the last episode that Paul had told Timothy to hold fast the pattern of sound words. We noted that part of that pattern was to appoint elders in each local church and we also noted that there was always a minimum of two elders appointed. There are specific qualifications that a man must meet in order to be an elder in the church. We discuss those. We then look at what the elders were responsible for doing. Paul had given them a warning in Acts chapter 20 that we talked about. We also noted that members of the congregation are told to be subject to the guidance of their elders for they would give an account to the Lord of their work. The next group of men who serve the local church are referred to as deacons. We look at the first mention of these men in Acts chapter six. As Paul did with selecting elders, he also provided the qualifications that a man had to meet in order to serve as a deacon in a local church. We look at those qualifications and note again that there were always at least two deacons in each local congregation. So up to this point, we have seen that the structure or pattern of the local church consists of Christ as Head, elders as spiritual leaders, and deacons as servants. Of course, we do have evangelists who preach and teach the word, but they don't have any other special role in the leadership or work of the church. The remainder of the local church is made up of disciples or saints. We look at a number of passages that refer to them. We close this episode out by noting the simplicity of the structure or pattern of the local church of Christ compared to that of man-made denominations. We will have more to say about this in the next episode. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your Bible handy so you can verify what we are saying.

Prophecy and Personal Revelation: Understanding God's Plan Through Daniel and Revelation Summary: We sought God's counsel through prophecy, exploring how the Holy Spirit reveals truth through the books of Daniel and Revelation. The discussion emphasized that prophecy is not merely predictive but deeply personal—it teaches believers how to grow spiritually, understand God's order, and live by faith in His plan. We examined Daniel's twofold structure, distinguishing between external kingdoms and internal spiritual realities, and reflected on how the Spirit grants discernment to interpret both. Through Scripture, we were reminded that God's kingdom is eternal, His timing perfect, and His grace the power that renews us daily as we wait in hope for Christ's reign.Themes:Prophecy reveals both God's universal plan and His personal counsel (Daniel; Revelation 4; John 13, 17)The Book of Daniel divides into external events (chapters 2–6) and eternal spiritual visions (chapters 7–12)The church, as God's heavenly people, is not part of the tribulation but is called to heavenly truth (Revelation 6–18)External prophecy addresses nations and kingdoms; internal prophecy reveals intimacy with GodTrue understanding of prophecy requires the Holy Spirit, not human intellect (1 Corinthians 2:10–14)God's people are renewed inwardly day by day as they trust His timing (2 Corinthians 4:16; Isaiah 40:31)The millennial reign fulfills God's will “on earth as in heaven” (Zechariah 14; Revelation 20)Reverent fear leads to humility and grace; pride blinds the soul to divine order (Proverbs 9:10; James 4:6)God's personal plan unfolds through faith, patience, and trust (Psalm 62:5–8; Philippians 4:6–7)Prophetic insight calls believers to purity, preparation, and worship in spirit and truthScripture References: Daniel 2–12; Revelation 4, 6–18, 20; John 13, 17; 1 Corinthians 2:10–14; 2 Corinthians 4:16; Isaiah 40:31; Zechariah 14; Proverbs 9:10; James 4:6; Psalm 62:5–8; Philippians 4:6–7Reflection Question: How is God using prophecy—not just to inform me about the future—but to transform my heart and deepen my trust in His plan today?

In his address to the Eastern Churches, Pope Leo XIV spoke eloquently about the traditions of Eastern spirituality and their sense of mystery, and the Eastern Churches are needed by the Universal Church. He also said the East, ever ancient and ever new, is a medicine for the West. Perhaps revisiting Latin spirituality and worship can benefit from a look to the East.

Titus 2:2-5At any age, the greatest thing you can be is yourself. The godliest lifestyle comes out of authentic people who love Christ. That's a beauty beyond description.
Peter starts to encourage the Church toward living in a God-honoring way in light of what Jesus has done.
Jeremy writes, “I know quite a bit about the fear of dying. Seven years ago . . . I felt intense, sickening, dizzying, overwhelming fear when I was told I had incurable cancer.” But he learned to manage his fear by leaning on the presence of God and moving from his fear of death to embracing “the fear of the Lord.” To Jeremy, this means being in awe of the Maker of the universe who will “swallow up death” (Isaiah 25:8) while also understanding deep within that God knows and loves him. The fear of the Lord—a deep respect and awe for our holy God—is a theme that runs throughout Scripture. King Solomon admonished his son to fear the Lord in his series of wise sayings, the Proverbs. He said that if his son would turn his “ear to wisdom” and “search for it as for hidden treasure,” then he’d “understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God” (Proverbs 2:2, 4, 5). Along with wisdom and knowledge, he’d find discretion and understanding (vv. 10–11). When we face challenges of many kinds and experience a sense of dread and fear, we’re reminded of our limitations. But as we turn to God, asking Him to help us humble ourselves before Him and worship Him in reverence, we’ll find He helps us to move from being fearful to embracing a healthy fear of Him.

What does the appeal to “reverent worship” tell us about conceptions of divine love? How does this emphasis relate to the other items on the list? And how can this appeal to “reverence” mask abusive, high-control religion? Listen to this week's episode to find out! Check out the church bulletin photo HERE.

Mary chats with apologist Tricia Burton of the Berean Call about the latest makeover of the Jehovah's Witness cult. Their beliefs have not changed, but the delivery method has gone tech. Not seen any JW's in your neighborhood of late? There is a reason for that, and it has served them well. Then we will look at a new streaming mockumentary-sitcom-disgrace from the minds of the producers of The Chosen: "The Promised Land". The accepted description of it is, "If The Chosen and The Office had an offspring, it would be "The Promised Land", and indeed that is the precise description that might set our teeth on edge before we even watch it. Episode 1 dropped a month ago and already it is very popular. Of course it is, The Chosen name brand has a built in audience. Is it biblical? Reverent? No. Entertaining, yes - but what is the place for that when it comes to people who actually lived and whom God used to bring about His will? Finally, we look at the Catholic prayer app, "Hallow". An informative hour. Shameless plug for swag for our listeners/donors! https://www.redpillprints.com/stand-up-for-the-truth - Thanks for YOUR Support!

Does being committed to social justice necessarily entail neglecting the liturgy? Conversely, do reverent liturgies entail downplaying or even ignoring the Church's mission to care for the poor? The answer to both questions is a resounding, no. How should we understand the right relationship between the liturgy of the Church and the virtue of justice, including social justice? And practically speaking, how can we, as a Church, overcome the unnecessary divisions between so-called “liberal Catholics” and “conservative Catholics”?
