Psalms 33:8 – Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
The word fear has different meanings depending on its usage, but when used as in our verse above, fear means to feel awe or reverence towards, or to venerate.
Our God is an awesome God. Incredible. Amazing. There is none like Him. The Creator of heaven and Earth. With just the power of His voice He created light. In just six days He created everything in the world! He truly is amazing.
You know, I am not a particularly artistic person. I rarely have the patience to try to draw a picture exactly or as close as I can to the real thing. But one day I just felt a spark of inspiration and I decided to try copying a picture of a cartoon bird. After what must have been about an hour or two, the picture that I had drawn looked nearly identical to the original, and I felt like I had really accomplished what I had set out to do.
Sometime later, I went over to a person’s house to go and visit with them, and they happened to be a very talented artist themselves, and they showed us some of their drawings and paintings they had done, and they were absolutely amazing. Pencil, watercolor, charcoal-many different methods of creation, and they were all incredibly detailed and accurate. Some of the pictures had taken weeks worth of time to complete, and it clearly showed. Looking at all of those amazing pictures that person had created made me realize how little I really knew about being artistic.
But even with all of the things that man could ever do or create, the pyramids, canals, dams, performing surgery, or creating symphonies, there is nothing that could ever compare to the awesomeness of our God.
Ecclesiastes 12:13 – Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
Proverbs 1:7 – The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Who else could do what our God does? Who else can create life? Only He can. Every time a new life is created is a other miracle. This amazing power of our Lord deserves and commands our awe and reverence.
Psalms 33:8 – Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
There is nothing that we could ever create to compare to the Creator. We stand in awe of him
In Christ,
Andrew
Andrew is no longer a part of this ministry because he opened the lied to me, deceived me, and betrayed me. Although many of his teachings are very helpful, they were written in a period of his life before he renounced his faith, and committed wicked deeds against me and the gospel of Christ. Other people who were involved and encouraged him in this activity, will have to answer to God for what they have done. He really didn’t love God the way that I love the Lord, but it is by his actions that God will determine the sheep from the goats.
