ePrayer Room: Fear the Lord to Righteousness : It is the Whole Duty of Man

The Bible teaches us that fearing the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and leads us to live righteous lives. Let’s explore what this means using some key scriptures.

Fear The Lord

alt tag: #Fear The Lord

Ecclesiastes 12:13 KJV says, “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.” This verse tells us that our main job is to respect and obey God.

Proverbs 1:7 KJV  says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Here, we learn that fearing God helps us start to understand His teachings. Without this fear, we cannot grow in wisdom.

Proverbs 8:13 KJV   states, “The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.” Fearing the Lord means rejecting sin and choosing to do good.

Proverbs 9:10 KJV  says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.” This verse repeats that true wisdom starts with fearing God and knowing Him.

John 14:15 KJV  tells us, “If ye love me, keep my commandments.” Jesus makes it clear that loving Him means obeying His teachings.

Luke 6:46 KJV  says, “And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?” Jesus questions why people call Him Lord but do not follow His commands. This shows that true faith involves both love and obedience.

Many people do not obey God because they do not truly fear Him. They might not understand His power and holiness. Some may even lack love for God. To live righteously, we must confess our faith, obey God’s commands, and be motivated by both love and fear of the Lord. This means making choices that honor God and rejecting sin.

In summary, fearing the Lord is crucial for living a righteous life. It is our duty to respect, love, and obey God. By doing this, we show our true faith and gain wisdom that leads to a blessed life.
