the Awe of God.

Written by: Pastor Marco DeBarros

The Awe of God = The Fear of God.

“The secret of the Lord is with those who fear Him, And He will show them His covenant.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭25‬:‭14‬ ‭NKJV‬‬


We will not hear from God unless we fear Him.

God hates sin, not the sinner.

Until we hate sin in us, we will not hear from God.

Until we stop tolerating sin around us, we will not hear from God.

God only reveals Himself to those who truly fear Him.

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭9‬:‭10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬


We can go to church, read the Bible, pray, and even tithe and still not hear from God unless we truly fear Him and display it in obedience.

““If you love Me, keep My commandments.”
‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭15‬ ‭NKJV‬‬


I can say that I love my wife every day but if I'm cheating on her, then my love is not truly genuine, it's just emotions. It is the same as saying we love Jesus, but we tolerate sin in us and around us.
We do not truly love Jesus, it's just emotions if we do not have a healthy fear of God that it's displayed in obedience.

I'm writing with a heavy heart because I don't want us to miss God.

We need to fast and pray for the fear of God to be fresh in our hearts.

Let's not be ok with sin in us and around us.

Do not become desensitized to the Holiness of God.

“You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; this is why God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of joy beyond your companions.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬ ‭CSB‬‬


Only those who love righteousness and hate sin get to have intimacy with God.
