“If you call on knowledge and appeal to reason; if you seek it as for silver and search for it as for treasure, then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God” (Prov. 2:3-5). The root of a godly life is the fear of the Lord. When he comes, the creative force will rebuild everything in you and recreate a beautiful order in you - the spiritual cosmos. How to acquire the fear of God? It is in you, only it is suppressed: resurrect it. To do this, give voice to your mind and open your heart to accept the suggestions of truth. Until now, reason was not given words: it was in slavery and did not dare to speak sound words: let it speak now. He will begin to speak about God’s omnipotence, which holds you and can throw you away at every moment, - about God’s omnipresence and omniscience, seeing everything in you and being angry with you for everything bad in you, - about God’s justice, ready to punish you now, but held back for the time being by mercy, - about death, at every moment ready to seize you and bring you to judgment and retribution. Listen and bring your heart into the feeling of these truths. If you awaken the feeling, the fear of God will come along with it. This is the dawn of life. You might be interested in:
