This fear acknowledges God\u2019s good intentions (Ex. 20:20). \u2026 This fear is produced by God\u2019s Word (Ps. 119:38; Prov. 2:5) and makes a person receptive to wisdom and knowledge (Prov. 1:7; 9:10)\u201d (Warren Baker and Eugene Carpenter, The Complete Word Study Dictionary: Old Testament, 2003, pp. 470-471&#8221;<\/em>. \u00a0Isaiah began with a reverence and respect of God and who He is. \u00a0Without this reverence and respect for God, His word will be meaningless, His promises empty, His salvation rejected, and His purpose seems foolish. \u00a0Without this reverence and respect our heart is hardened and though we may read or hear the word of God it will have no place to root in our heart. \u00a0Proverbs says the beginning of all wisdom is fear (reverence and respect) of the Lord. \u00a0The verses today speak of those who have this reverence and respect of God and those who do not. \u00a0Hold tight to this reverence and respect. \u00a0With this as a firm anchor in your life His word will have great impact and purpose in your life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0\u201cWhen the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne.&#8221; &#8220;Then the King will say to those on his right, \u2018Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.&#8221; &#8220;While you &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prayingpint.com\/index.php\/2017\/01\/16\/reverence-respect-king-of-glory\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Reverence &#038; Respect &#8211; King of Glory&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[1157,1657,1658,2449,2453,2447,717,2460,448,2450,724,2462,2455,1575,2451,283,2459,1040,2458,2456,2457,2461,2448,325,2452,2454,442],"class_list":["post-8256","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-daily-prayers","tag-ashamed","tag-be-warned","tag-be-wise","tag-blessed-inherit","tag-blinded-their-eyes","tag-comes-in-glory","tag-devine-power","tag-escaped-corruption","tag-father","tag-foundation-of-the-world","tag-godliness","tag-hardened-their-hearts","tag-heal-them","tag-holy","tag-king-of-glory","tag-knowledge","tag-partakers","tag-perish","tag-precious-very-great-promises","tag-seen-me","tag-serve-the-lord-with-fear","tag-sinful-desire","tag-son-of-man","tag-throne","tag-unclean-lips","tag-understand-with-the-heart","tag-wrath"],"post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prayingpint.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8256","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prayingpint.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prayingpint.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prayingpint.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prayingpint.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8256"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.prayingpint.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8256\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8262,"href":"https:\/\/www.prayingpint.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8256\/revisions\/8262"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prayingpint.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8256"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prayingpint.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8256"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prayingpint.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8256"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
