This week's teaching devotional:
15th March 2026If there is one virtue that ranks high in God"s agenda, it is the fear of God. This is the true foundation for a lasting and genuine walk with God. The one quality that will cause the Word of God to remain a final authority in our lives is the fear of God. Walking in the fear of God is to have a healthy reverence for Him. It is the beginning of wisdom. (Proverbs 9:10) Little wonder why wisdom is a scarce commodity amongst many today. The fear of God causes us to esteem God"s Word as precious, worthy of our submission and deserving of our surrender to the demands in His Word. The Word carries the ability to overrule our human feelings as we subject all things in us to His expectations of us. We are not robots and He is not asking for a mindless, thoughtless obedience but an intelligent and willing acceptance of His authority to rule over us as Lord. Without the fear of the Lord, the presence of the Lord will not be a regular occurrence in our lives. Joseph had the fear of the Lord, experienced the presence of the Lord and he knew his boundaries. He avoided sinning against God when he was given opportunity to have an affair with Potiphar"s wife. His intimacy with God and his understanding of boundaries produced in the young man a strength that could carry him through the falsehood he had to face.
Wisdom Key: Without the fear of the Lord, the presence of the Lord will not be a regular occurrence in our lives
Memory Verse: "The reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord is the beginning (the chief and choice part) of Wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight and understanding." Proverbs 9:10 AMP.
Personal Application: What does it mean to truly walk in the fear of the Lord, for example if we truly walked in the fear of God what things in our lives would we stop or start doing? How can we develop deep and reverential fear of God in our lives?
