What is the Fear of the Lord?

The sermon "What is the Fear of the Lord?" by Pastor Blake Dodd emphasizes understanding and embodying reverence for God as seen in Proverbs, not as terror, but as recognizing God’s holiness and authority. Living in the fear of the Lord involves respecting and obeying God's commands, acknowledging His power and our dependence on Him. It means having a deep awe for God's nature and recognizing His role as our creator. Possessing the fear of the Lord leads to wisdom, a desire for holy living, and a transformation in speech and heart towards forgiveness and love.
