The Fear Of The Lord

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. What is the fear of the Lord? It's a reverance of God. Being in awe of the all powerful, all knowing God who created the universe. David was a man after God's heart. He feared the Lord and it showed in his actions. It showed in the psalms that he wrote. David repeatedly referred to the greatness of God. He lived in humility before the Lord. Even when he did horrible things, he humbled himself before the Lord and God honored him.
Psalms 111:10 says the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. That is echoed in Proverbs 1:7 and 9:10. Wisdom comes when we realize who the source of wisdom is. When we put our pride aside and seek answers from the Holy Spirit and from the Word of God. Psalms 25:14 states that God confides in those who fear Him. Fear Him and He'll show you His will.
