Proverbs- 15:33
"The fear of the Lord teaches a man wisdom,
and humility comes before honor."
This does not mean be scared of God. Fear has a different meaning to it. For example, fear of fire means you remember what it can do. You don't play with fire, you don't take advantage of fire and disrespect it.
Same as having fear of God. You respect Him. You respect what he has, can, and will do for you.Give God serious consideration in your life. Don't be scared of him, give Him all your respect and love and He will return it to you.
Fear of the Lord teaches a man wisdom. Fear the Lord. Respect Him. With that fear and respect will come wisdom and love.
Humility comes before honor. You must forget all pride, all arrogance. Drop before the Lord and ask for forgiveness. Give him your heart, your mind, your body and your life. Leave behind all your prideful thinking and don't be ashamed to show your loyalty to the Lord.
What do you think? What does this verse mean to you?
