Heart Over Hype: Returning to Authentic Faithਨਮੂਨਾ

Reading: Proverbs 9:10–12

Devotional:
The scripture emphasizes the importance of fearing the Lord. This "fear" isn't about being afraid, but rather a deep reverence and awe for God that shapes our decisions and actions.

As you read today's passage, consider how the fear of the Lord brings wisdom and understanding.

How might your life change if you approached each decision with a reverent awareness of God's presence?

Challenge yourself to pause before making choices today, asking, “Does this glorify God?” Let this practice cultivate humility and deepen your reliance on God's guidance.

Prayer:
God, teach me what it means to walk in the fear of the Lord, not in dread, but in awe. Remind me that You are holy, righteous, and worthy of all honor. May reverence for You guide my words, my thoughts, and my actions. Help me make decisions today that reflect Your wisdom and bring You glory. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Application:
Before making any decision today, big or small, pause and ask, “Would this please God?” Keep a note or reminder that says, “Choose reverence over reaction.”
