11. I. How do I learn/develop a
healthy kind of fear
(Reverential fear)?

12. 1. Read and Study His Word

13. “My son, if you accept my words
and store up my commands within you,
turning your ear to wisdom
and applying your heart to understanding—
indeed, if you call out for insight
and cry aloud for understanding,
and if you look for it as for silver
and search for it as for hidden treasure,
then you will understand the fear of the LORD
and find the knowledge of God.”

14. 1. Read and Study His Word
2. Ask for the Lord’s Help

15. (NIV) “for it is God who works in you to will and to
act in order to fulfill his good purpose.”
(NLT) “For God is working in you, giving you the
desire and the power to do what pleases him.”
(TLB) “For God is at work within you, helping you
want to obey him, and then helping you do what he
wants.”

2. Ask for the Lord’s Help
3. Surround yourself with God-
fearing people

17. (TLB) “In response to all he has done for us,
let us outdo each other in being helpful and
kind to each other and in doing good. Let us
not neglect our church meetings, as some
people do, but encourage and warn each
other, especially now that the day of his
coming back again is drawing near.”

18. (NIV) “And let us consider how we may spur
one another on toward love and good deeds,
not giving up meeting together, as some are
in the habit of doing, but encouraging one
another—and all the more as you see the Day
approaching.”

19. II. Blessings from God

fear of the LORD are riches,
honor and life.”

of knowledge, but fools despise
wisdom and instruction.”

And you will go free, leaping with joy like calves let
out to pasture.”
 Proverbs 10:27 NLV
“The fear of the Lord makes life longer, but the
years of the sinful will be cut off.”

him.”

him; he hears their cry and saves
them.”

obedience to him.
2 You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and
prosperity will be yours.

house; your children will be like olive shoots around
your table.

the LORD.”

the dead and reward your servants—prophets and
people alike, all who fear your Name, both great
and small—and to destroy those who have caused
destruction upon the earth.”

31. 16Then he told them a story: “A rich man had a fertile
farm that produced fine crops. 17 He said to himself, ‘What
should I do? I don’t have room for all my crops.’ 18 Then
he said, ‘I know! I’ll tear down my barns and build bigger
ones. Then I’ll have room enough to store all my wheat
and other goods. 19 And I’ll sit back and say to myself,
“My friend, you have enough stored away for years to
come. Now take it easy! Eat, drink, and be merry!”’ 20 “But
God said to him, ‘You fool! You will die this very night.
Then who will get everything you worked for?’ 21 “Yes, a
person is a fool to store up earthly wealth but not have a
rich relationship with God.”

32. “Yet because the wicked do not fear
God, it will not go well with them, and
their days will not lengthen like a
shadow.”

33. “Do not let your heart envy sinners, but
always be zealous for the fear of
the LORD. There is surely a future hope for
you, and your hope will not be cut off.”

34.  Let us look forward to the Lord’s eternal
blessings rather than the temporal ones.
 Let us reach out to those who do not know
and fear the Lord.
 Let us always be zealous for the fear of the
Lord.
