Why Should I Fear God? | IN AWE (Pt. 1) | Steven Zeier

📺 LIVE ONLINE SERVICES each Sunday at 8:30am | 10:00am | 11:30am PT ◾️ What do you think of God? Is He the ultimate expression of love and kindness? A comforter and provider? Or perhaps the one who sacrificed everything to give you a new life? If that’s the case, why do we as Christians talk about fearing such a God? ◾️ Why should we fear the one who offers us forgiveness for all our wrongdoing? Should we really be afraid that He will condemn us to hell if we don’t repent for our sins each day? Why should we live in fear that He might be angry? ◾️ If you have doubts about why the Bible speaks of fearing God, this message is for you! Join us as we kick off our very special series, 'In Awe.' What does the Bible say about holding onto the fear of God? Should we even have that fear? What is its purpose, and what does it mean?

💫 FEARING GOD MEANS 💫
1. Listening Carefully To His Voice
2. Anchoring Yourself In What Cannot Be Shaken
🔸 When we fear God, we Love the things God loves and we hate the things He hates.
🔸 Fear protects us from making the wrong choices.
🔸 Love draws us towards the heart of God.
3. Worshipping God With Reverence And Awe

🌌 IN AWE (Pt. 1): Greatness Of God | Fear Of The Lord 🌌

Do you long for a closer relationship with God, yet sometimes feel He’s distant? The missing piece may be a holy awe — a deep reverence that recognizes God as both powerful but also loving. Fearing God isn’t about being afraid, but about honoring Him as our mighty Creator and our compassionate Father. When we approach God with awe, we find wisdom, strength, and true intimacy with the One who welcomes us with open arms. Join us as we discover how reverence and love together unlock a faith that stands strong and a relationship that satisfies the soul.
