Job 28:28 And he said to the man: Behold, the fear of the Lord is wisdom and turning away from evil, intelligence

When you have fear of God you do not sin, a person who fears God is wise.

He who lives in fear of God is a wise person, walks on the right paths always with prudence and keeps attentive keeping the Word of God. A person without fear of God rejoices in doing evil and walks in perversities, vices and in crooked ways that lead to nothing good because the love of God is not won.

But the true son of God, keeps fear of our Lord, not to sin and when we know what is the fear of God we must lead others to know him so that they persuade sin and live correctly.

Proverbs 1: 7 The principle of wisdom is the fear of God, until we understand who God is, we can acquire true wisdom and that true wisdom comes only from the understanding of who God is, we declare that he is holy and acts in a way just road. In Deuteronomy 10: 12,20,21 it says: Now, Israel, what does Jehovah your God ask you, but you fear the Lord, walk in all his ways and love him, serve him, your God with all your heart and with all your soul *** Jehovah your God will fear and only him will you serve, you will follow him and in his name you will swear, he is the object of your praise, it is your God, he who has done these great things with you and terrible that your eyes have seen, understand well that the fear of God is the basis of our walk in his ways, we must serve and love him.

The fear of God is the presence of him in us, it is a behavior that governs the life of the people who love God, the fear of him, is to believe in HIS EXISTENCE.

How happy are those who fear the Lord. Psalm 112: 1

Imagine how much truth there is in the word, which in Proverbs 10:27 says: The fear of the Lord prolongs the life, wanting us to say that the one who fears him, will live longer than those who do not fear him, this has been revealed.

The love of God and the fear of God go hand in hand, both go together, because if you love God without fearing him, it is not to love him.

Someone who has the fear of God is closer to him, why? Because we do not want to make mistakes, we do not want to do anything that offends him, we do not want to sin, we do not want to grieve the holy spirit, the one who has the fear of God in his heart is the closest to him.

The purpose of the fear of God

• Knowing God intimately is his purpose Proverbs 2: 5 says: Then you will understand the fear of Jehovah and find the knowledge of God.

• Obedience. If you are afraid, you obey. Ecclesiastes 12:13 says: The end of all speech heard is this: Fear God, and keep his commandments, because this is the whole of man. The fear of God leads you to keep his commandments.

• Living in holiness. The fear of God comes so that we know God intimately, to obey his commandments, but most of all it comes that we may live in holiness.

• Put the interests of God above ours. He who fears God always puts God above all else, God' first.

Moses feared God, but he was not afraid of him, he tells the people: God was trying them, for what? so that the fear of God is before you, "so that you do not sin" when someone fears God, he moves away from him, but when someone fears God, he approaches. God came to prove us.

When God puts a test and we pass it, we have a revelation of who God is, but we will also see a revelation of who we are.

The one who fears God, tells his children to remain by his side, that it is not fear, it is a reverent and holy fear, but his goal is that we know God, obey his word and live in holiness, our greatest reward is that, will do us good.

God says: Oh, I wish they had such a heart that they feared me, and that they kept my commandments every day, so that in their lives they do well, both to them and to their children.

Let's say to God: I need to fear you oh God, I need it
