The fear of the Lord is a Holy reverent respect for God that causes us to take Him very, very serious, realizing He is all knowing all-powerful , and completely holds our lives, our universe, our judgement, and our eternal destiny in His hands. To fear Him is to be soberly aware of His awesome Authority over us, not going around thinking we can do whatever we want without real side-effects or consequences. As a result, fearing the Lord keeps a child's and a man's desires and life in check.

The heart is hardened through the deceitfulness of sin Hebrews 3:13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. if its not dealt with the sin will produce more fruit of sin. and that hinders us in our ability to hear God's voice. Our accuracy to see is then darknened. ... sin hardens our heart just like alloys harden gold. there is a process in refining gold the first step is grinding it into powder and then mixing it with a substance called flux. then the mixture is placed in a furnance and melted by intense heat. the alloys and impurities rise to the surface then the impurities are removed making the gold purer . God refines us with afflictions, trials, and tribulations, the of which separates impurities from our heart such as pride , unforgiveness, strife, envy, jealousy etc.. sin easily hides where there is no heat of trials and afflictions. you cant see the impurties in gold before it is put in f...

Yesterday as I was riding to a meeting , I was looking at all the trees and on this street I noticed all the leaves have fallen it was very windy yesterday and I noticed one tree still had this little brown leaf hanging on it was blowing in the wind but that leaf wouldn't fall. when I'm outside looking upon the beauty of God's creation, I look at things spiritually. and when I seen that tree with the one leaf holding on I thought of a few ways to look at it. one being that no matter how hard the wind blew and beat upon that leaf though it was shaken it did not fall and a couple scriptures came to mind ---> Matthew 7:24-25) 24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. Hebrews 12:25-29) 25 See that ye refuse not hi ... m that speaketh. F...
