Ps. 111:10 Reverence for the LORD is the foundation of true
wisdom. The rewards of wisdom come to all who obey him.
Do you want wisdom so
that you can live rightly before God? If so, it begins with reverence for the
Lord. We must be in awe of who God is. The Lord cannot be contained by our
thoughts of Him. He is not limited by what we know of Him. He is much greater
than the creation He created. All that exists came into being by the utterance
of His word. He said it, it was, and it still is. God is the essence of all
things good and holy. He is governed by His holiness and driven by His love. It
is the Lord who did the impossible; He set us free from sin’s death grip on us
and forever removed our sins from us, to be remembered no more. Wise is he who
understands these things and bows before God in worship.
God rewards those who
obey Him. If you desire to live within the blessings of God, obey Him. When we
obey the Lord we do it without picking and choosing what we will or will not
do. We will obey the Lord in all things. Selective obedience is no obedience at
all. Whatever the Lord instructs and commands us to do, we strive to do it.
Great is the reward of those who have enough reverence and respect for the Lord
that they submit to His authority over them and obey Him. Empty are the words of those who declare
their love for the Lord and do not obey Him.
Revere the Lord and you
will find true wisdom. Wise are those
who obey the Lord. Great are the rewards
of those who find true wisdom.
