Walking in the fear of the Lord

16/12/05 Walking in the fear of the Lord
The fear of the Lord will preserve you as salt preserves food. Wisdom is based on the fear of the Lord. Where there is no fear of the Lord there will be chaos. Man’s wisdom is fallen and carnal and does not reflect the mind of God. God’s ways are so different from the ways of man. God’s ways bring life while man makes plans and makes a trap for himself. How good it is to trust in the Lord and follow His plans. They are sure and secure and bring life and health. There is no fear in walking in the fear of God. Man’s fears are mainly based on his awareness of his own vulnerability. How secure is that? But a man who walks in the fear of God sees as God sees and walks as He bids him walk. In this is security and life. The devil comes to rob and destroy but God comes to give life. Now choose to walk in the fear of the Lord and live.
