1 Sin whispers to the wicked, deep within their hearts. They have no fear of God at all. 2 In their blind conceit, they cannot see how wicked they really are. ~ Psalms 36:1-2NLT
The book of Proverbs says that the fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge. Sometimes we overlook this because we think it’s the beginning of understanding the deep things of God. But in reality, it’s the beginning of the knowledge of right and wrong.
See, when we have no fear of God, we have no knowledge of what God considers to be right and wrong. We have a tainted view of Him. We become wicked, and we don’t even realize it. We may even think that we’re saved and that we’re fine, even though we’re living in complete and utter filth.
We become like pigs. Pigs don’t realize that they stink, or that they smell, or that they’re rolling around in filth. They have no knowledge of this. That’s how we become when we don’t fear the LORD. Why? Because the fear of the LORD is to respect the LORD. You learn His likes and dislikes. You learn what pleases Him and what hurts Him. It’s to love the LORD with everything in you.
So, awaken from your filth. Don’t be as a mindless pig enjoying the muck. Return to the LORD. Run home to Him, and He will clean you off. He will redeem you, and you will be His, and He will be yours.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Awaken To The Filth.
