Discover the transformative truth of “The Joy of Fearing God” from Revelation 14:6-7! 🔥 An angel proclaims the eternal gospel: “Fear God and give Him glory... worship Him who made heaven and earth!” 🌍 This isn’t terror, but reverent awe that brings true freedom, wisdom, and joy. ✨

Explore why the Bible repeatedly says “Fear God” while also commanding “Fear not!” (365+ times!). The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10) and knowledge (Proverbs 1:7). When you fear God rightly, you fear nothing else—Oswald Chambers nails it!

From C.S. Lewis (“Aslan is not safe... but he’s good!”) to R.C. Sproul’s distinction between servile (slavish) fear vs. filial (childlike, loving reverence), see how this holy fear casts out anxiety, motivates holiness, and draws us closer to our Heavenly Father. ❤️🙏

The NT church multiplied while “walking in the fear of the Lord and the comfort of the Holy Spirit” (Acts 9:31). Jesus delivers us from fear of death (Hebrews 2:15) and judgment through His perfect sacrifice—perfect love casts out fear (1 John 4:18)! ✝️

Quotes from Oswald Chambers, Francis Chan, Corrie ten Boom, John Wesley, John Murray, Jerry Bridges, Michael Reeves, and more reveal: Fearing God is the antidote to modern anxiety, the soul of godliness, and the foundation for joyful, fearless living. No more bondage to lesser fears! 🌟

Whether you’re battling worry, seeking deeper reverence, or growing in faith—this teaching shows how the gospel brings good news of great joy: Fear not, for Christ has borne our sins! 🎉
