Behold! The Fear of the Lord

Behold! Is a foundational message to new and seasoned followers of Jesus Christ to bring understanding based on Scripture of what it means to fear the Lord. Through this book, the reader will gain a proper perspective of God's Holy Nature as He reveals Himself in Scripture. Proverbs 9:10-12 tells us

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: And knowledge of the holy is understanding. For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased." If ever there was a time that we needed wisdom and understanding for life it is NOW. That wisdom comes from acknowledging the Lord and giving Him due honor and respect as the Sovereign God and Creator of All. Even those who have history with God never outgrow the need to grow in knowledge and in the fear of the Lord. The author weaves her own testimony coming into and walking in the fear of the Lord to encourage others who may love God but lack the understanding of Who He IS. Until we truly come to know the both the goodness and the severity of God, we will misunderstand Him and draw back when He is demonstrating His Holy Nature. Behold! is for anyone seeking to biblical wisdom on how to approach God and allow His Word to bring revelation through Holy Spirit of Who He Is. Out of that revelation the reverence of God is instilled in the believer and we can journey with Him in discovering more of Him, our identity in Him, Jesus Christ and the reason He created us.

May the message of this book cause us to be established in the reverence of God and return to the fear of the Lord, journeying with Him as He reveals Himself personally to those who truly desire to know Him!
