WHAT BRINGS THE FEAR OF YAHWEH
And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
Psalms 9:10 (KJV)
The fear of Yahweh comes from the knowledge of Yahweh, which is from knowing Yahweh. The Bible tells us that the beginning of wisdom and knowledge is the fear of the Lord. Proverbs 9:10 says, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” As Yahweh’s presence is revealed to us physically and spiritually we stand in awesome respect of His power and majesty. The children of Israel had an encounter with Yahweh that made an impression on them at Mount Sinai. Exodus 19:17-19 says, “17 And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they stood at the nether part of the mount. 18 And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the Lord descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly. 19 And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice.”
In Yahweh’s presence the people were terrified, but Moses explained that this was good for them. Yahweh had revealed a small portion of His power to them so that the fear of Yahweh would be with them to keep them from sinning. Exodus 20:18-20 says, “18 ¶And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and stood afar off. 19 And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die. 20 And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.”
The greater our knowledge of Yahweh the greater our love will be for Him, and the greater our fear (awesome respect) of Him will be also. The prophet Isaiah had an encounter with Yahweh that changed his life. Isaiah 6:1-5 says, “1 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. 2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. 3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. 4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. 5 ¶Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts.” In the revelation of Yahweh’s light and glory even our slightest shortcomings are revealed which causes us to immediately repent. Notice that Isaiah even felt contaminated by the sin of the people that he had been with, when he stood before Yahweh.
REMEMBER: It takes the intimate knowledge of Yahweh to fear Him.
PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. I ask that You reveal Yourself to me Father like You did to Moses in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree that the eyes of your understanding be enlightened now to know Yahweh in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
