Psalm 128
1 Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in his ways. 2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee. 3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table. 4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord. 5 The Lord shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life. 6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.
If we fear the LORD which means Respect ,Reverence, and Honor,
like a child has for their father. The bible says we are blessed.
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. Proverbs 9:10
We acknowledge who God is in authority unto us.
Malachi 1:6
6 A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith the Lord of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name.
God is asking where is His honor and fear (RESPECT and REVERENCE).
When we honor God our Father in all our ways. He will in turn bless us with the promises or covenant that He made with us from the beginning.
Fearing God does not mean that He wants us to be afraid of Him. This type of fear would cause Him to be unapproachable. This does not mean that we can approach Father God any kind of way. For He is a King!
God is asking us to heed to His instructions and commandments that He has provided for us to live productive lives in Him. His Word governs and establishes us in life. By doing so as He commands, God will in turn bless everything that is connected to us.
Let's honor God by heeding to His commands and being the God-Fearing Family or if not married Individual that He requires us to be.
God Bless
