It is good to fear God
In mercy and truth
Atonement is provided for iniquity;
And by the fear of the Lord one departs from evil.
- Proverbs 16:6
To fear God is to recognize His greatness and His lordship over us. We serve the almighty God, worthy of our praise, our reverence, and our fear.
Generally, people see fear as something negative. However, fearing God is something positive. It is a reverent attitude that comes from the heart of everyone who recognizes that they need God as the King and Lord of their life.
As we see in the verse from Proverbs 16:6, whoever fears the Lord turns away from evil. This is good, because evil never brings good things into our lives. Therefore, having the fear of God keeps us from walking on paths that do not please Him.
However, when we walk in the paths that God desires, everything becomes more bearable. Walking in obedience to God brings blessing, inner peace, and even peace with other people.
When a man’s ways please the Lord,
He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
- Proverbs 16:7
Be wise: walk every day within the will of God. Allow Him to direct your steps and acknowledge His greatness and His power. You will enjoy more inner peace and more peace in your relationships with others.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
A good understanding have all those who do His commandments.
His praise endures forever.
- Psalm 111:10
Who is the man that fears the Lord?
Him shall He teach in the way He chooses.
- Psalm 25:12
Serve God every day with reverent fear. Allow Him to guide your steps and always walk doing His will. You will enjoy well-being and peace in your life.

Do you need to forgive someone?
Who doesn’t like to be forgiven, to feel that the person you offended is no longer holding that offense against you? Knowing that you are forgiven fills the heart with peace.
That’s what God does with us. He is forgiving! When you confess your sin to God, He is faithful and rich in grace to forgive.
The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.
- John 1:9
But the power of forgiveness has another side. When you decide not to hold a grudge and forgive, you also receive release, and that is an incredible feeling.
You, Lord, are forgiving and good,
abounding in love to all who call to you.
- Psalm 86:5
When we forgive, we remove a heavy burden and open the door to move forward with the Lord, free from all oppression. This is one of the reasons the Bible calls us to forgive.
Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
- Ephesians 4:31–32
Examine your heart today. Do you need to forgive someone? God wants you to be free. When you choose to forgive, you choose to demonstrate the character of God, acting in the way He desires. Choose to forgive!
For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
- Matthew 6:14
