Proverbs is full of great wisdom having complete trust in its word leads you in the way of righteousness any other route is totally absurd Don't trust in your own sight be sure to display godly reverence turn yourself away from all evil fear the Lord your God in His night You can't do these two things for fearing God is hating evil all types of perverted talk you hate arrogant pride brings your justice date Your iniquity needs to be atoned for faithfulness and divine love does this fear the Lord and turn from evil brings you to receive your eternal kiss Having God's fear deep in your heart enables you to be holy and obey all that the Lord commands upon yourself in Christ, you're able to do as He says (Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil. Proverbs 3: 7(ESV) The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil. Pride and arrogance and the way of evil and perverted speech I hate. Proverbs 8: 13(ESV) By steadfast love and faithfulness, iniquity is atoned for, and by the fear of the Lord, one turns away from evil.) Proverbs 16: 6 (ESV) (Quote: " I believe it is impossible to consistently walk in obedience and holiness unless you have the fear of God in your heart." - David Wilkerson (1931-2011) U.S. Evangelist )
