The world constantly tells us what to fear—failure, rejection, loss, suffering. But Scripture calls us to a greater fear: the fear of the Lord. In this message from 1 Peter 1:17, we are reminded that reverent awe of God is not a fearful dread, but the right ordering of our hearts before our holy Father and righteous Judge. When the fear of the Lord becomes our highest priority, every other desire finds its proper place, enabling us to live wisely, pursue holiness, endure trials faithfully, and make it our aim to please Christ above all else. Watch the full sermon on our YouTube channel and discover how the fear of the Lord becomes the one motivation that rightly orders every part of life.
