What does it mean to fear the Lord and its Benefits?

 Image for post

Greetings, Let's meditate on this word..
"Praise the Lord, Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who finds great delight in his commands. His children will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed. Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever." (Psalm 112:1–3)

The word fear in Hebrew is “Yare” which also means ‘Respect and Revere’. Now, this Respect and Reverence should be with you 24/7 days a week, and 365 days a year. This Reverence should tell you even when nobody is watching you as the verse says, God’s eyes are on the righteous.

The Bible says in Psalm 112:2, this fear has an effect on the children itself because when they see the fear of God upon the parents they will become mighty because they imitate that fear of God. ‘What is the fear of Lord? The fear of the Lord is to shun evil. When the world goes ahead by doing evil and by a lie. We cannot even imagine doing it because the fear of the Lord has captivated us and God has placed the wicked on a
slippery ground, who are here today and gone tomorrow.

The word says Psalm 112:3, Wealth and riches are in his house. i.e who fears the Lord. This is the fear that made Joseph prosper.

This fear made Joseph run away from Potiphar's wife when she wanted to commit adultery with him. And had he not had that fear of the Lord he would have never reached the prosperity of becoming the Prime Minister of Egypt.

Just imagine where he would have ended up, had he lost that fear of the Lord. He would have died as a slave in Potiphar's house. Beloved, if you have the fear of Lord that will distinguish you from others. There are certain places where you cannot sit, there are certain things which you cannot say, and certain things you cannot do, because of the fear of God which is inside you.

So dear, to prosper in your present situation or win right now, you need just one thing. ‘The fear of the Lord’ One of the greatest targets of the enemy in today’s world is to bring people close to our vicinity by hook or crook who do not have fear of the Lord in their sight, in their words, and in their deeds and slowly before you realize it the fear of the Lord is gone.

So beloved, guard the fear of Lord with all your might because that is the source of your prosperity.

So confess with me.....

I am grounded and rooted in the fear of the Lord all the days of my life. Therefore Diamonds, Gold, Silver and Millions are mine and are following me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of Lord forever and ever.
Amen.

Why temple veil torn..?

Do you know that when Jesus Christ died, the veil on the temple was torn in two parts from top to bottom (Mark 15:38)?  The word ‘temple’ in original language is ‘Naos’ – often denotes only the innermost sacred part of the building. So, what did God want to say from the above-mentioned verse? The answer is, in the Old Testament, God’s presence was behind the veil in the innermost sacred part of the temple and in the New Testament, that presence has come out of that place and God speaks to His people by residing in their hearts. In the Old Testament, the Holy Spirit who is the third person of the Trinity, would come upon a person only for a specific time and a specific purpose and after that particular purpose was achieved and the time was over the Holy Spirit had to leave. But in the New Testament, due to the veil of the temple being torn, every believer now can be filled with the Holy Spirit.                        ...

My Testimony - Apostle Winston Joseph, Ph. D

  Healed from Asthama Many years ago, I had asthma. It was a hereditary disease in my family and I witnessed one of my aunts who died because of it in a very dreadful situation. She was hanged upside down to ease her predicament. I had the same disease and there was a time in my life when I could not sit nor stand because of the illness. I could not breathe properly and sometimes I used to have excruciating pain at my back due to the that illness. Also, I had severe dust allergy, even if a little dust went into my nostrils, I would sneeze for a long time. But when I came to know that the Word is the truth and that the fact can be changed through the truth , I started to take hold of the Word and declare and decree it for days and days. Devil used to show me the fact that this disease is incurable. But I kept on declaring the truth i.e. the Word until I was totally healed and delivered from that disease. Now I know that I am born of the Spirit, walking in glory in divine health whi...
