“Ye shall walk after the LORD you God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him” (Deuteronomy 13:4)

A definition in Strong’s Concordance of the word: “fear”. The Hebrew word in an English alliteration, is “yare”, (pronounced yaw-ray); a prim. Root; to fear; mor. To revere; caus. To frighten:--affright, be (make) afraid, dread (-ful), (put in) fear (-ful, -fully, -ing). (be had in) reverence (-end), X see terrible (act, -ness, thing).

You can see, the words, “revere” and “reverence”, are used in the definition of this Hebrew word. I’ve been told that when The Holy Bible uses the word, “fear”, about how we should be toward God, it means to be, “in holy awe”.

God is all powerful, all knowing and everywhere. We need to revere Him and acknowledge that there is no greater power than Him. He’s our Creator and is the Creator of everyone and everything. Everything is created by His Holy Spirit. I don’t want to be standing in some unrepentant sinners sandals on judgment day. The word, “fear”, is used in The Holy Bible quite a bit. I don’t think we should fear anyone or anything but The LORD.
