Do you long for an intimate relationship with your Creator, but He seems elusive Perhaps it is because something utterly essential is missing—the fear of the Lord. Don't let this frighten you. Fearing God is very different than being afraid of God. It's the key to everything.
Holy Fear is not a topic you'll hear much about these days. But if you want to build a faith that stands strong through troubled times, you cannot afford to ignore this book.
In The Awe of God, John Bevere invites you to take a fresh look at what it means to work out your salvation with fear and trembling. This healthy, holy, and largely forgotten virtue is the uncommon path to a more fulfilled and fruitful life. In this book you will see why godly fear is the foundation
Wisdom, understanding, and knowledge Foresight, clarity, and divine direction Maturity and conformity to the image of Jesus Christ Building an eternal legacy Confidence, fearlessness, and security Freedom from the fear of man as all lesser fears are eclipsed
If you look at the men and women in Scripture, the ones who lived and finish well all have one thing in they are marked by holy fear.
The Awe of God was designed to be read slowly and intentionally. At the end of each of the 42 chapters are five tools to help you deepen your understanding and apply what the Spirit of God is teaching you. Experience the intimate relationship with God that you have always longed for by unlocking this countercultural message.
I am so excited for this message to get out. I personally believe the church in America is lacking in this area. If we take to heart the Awe of God, not only would we be changed for the better but so would our communities. This is one book I definitely read again and again. Highly recommend this book for people who want a more intimate relationship with God.
This devotional is wonderful & should be a must read for all Christians. What a wonderful & powerful challenge to make holy fear the center of our walk in faith, something that’s been important but forgotten.
Great read! I was able to gain more insights and knowledge on how to fear the Lord on a daily basis. Would highly recommend to a believer that started their journey with Christ or who are more established on their walk.
