Wednesday, September 26th - Proverbs 1:7; 2:1-5

Good evening!

Wasn't last night at GEMS great?  Great meal, great teaching and great fellowship!  Wow!  Can't wait to do it again in two weeks!  Yeah!!!

Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: Proverbs 1:7 ~ What do you have fear of?  What you fear is what you worship because it consumes your life.  If you don't fear God, you'll fear something.

This is the verse that Lisa used last night for the base of her teaching.  "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline."  1:7
The beginning of knowledge!  The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.
The fear of the Lord has several meanings, and one of the first ones is awe and reverence!  How do you feel when you talk about God?  How about when you read His Word? 
Do you have an awe and reverence for Him like no other? 

To live with peace, power and purpose, you need a healthy fear of the Lord.  This is key!  His character, His love, and His plan is weaved throughout the Bible and He demands respect and an awe and reverence like no other.  Will you give it to Him?

Verses 1 thru 5 of chapter 2 tells us we should seek knowledge as a hidden treasure.  Turn our ear to wisdom; apply our heart to understanding; and look for it, we will understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God. 

Faith is the key!

Do you have the key?

Have a great evening!
