Listen to the Everyday Prayers with Million Praying Moms Podcast every weekday to start your day in God’s Word and prayer for the people you love most.
Should we fear the Lord? And how does that lead to knowledge and understanding?
The type of fear this verse speaks of isn’t what we feel for snakes, spiders, or even our worries coming true. It isn’t the fear that cripples us, that nails us to the place where we stand, unable to speak. No, this type of fear is more like awe or respect. When we respect someone, we hold them up as higher. When we have awe for something or someone, we are in wonder, and there is some reverence involved.
How can such fear of God lead us to wisdom and understanding? Listen to today’s podcast episode from Laura Groves based on Proverbs 1:7.
