To be a Christian is to forgive the inexcusable, because God has excused the inexcusable in you.

The Bible says you are to fear two things:
1. God
2. Nothing.
Today, have confidence that God has your back. #donotliveinfear
For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.- 2 Timothy 1:7 #fear
Fear will keep us in the same place and we don't find ourselves experiencing anything new in life.
Fear will cause you to accept being comfortable where you are, instead of being excited about where you are going. It will tell you that you can't do great things, so you have to settle for what you have. #spiritoffear
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.- Isaiah 41:10 #fearnothing
Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.- Psalm 23:4 #fearnoevil
I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears.- Psalm 34:4 #fearnot

The Price of Wisdom
Tumblr media
1 Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold where they refine it.
2 Iron is taken out of the earth, and copper is smelted out of the ore.
3 Man sets an end to darkness, and searches out all recesses for ore in darkness, and the shadow of death.
4 He breaks open a shaft away from the inhabitants; even in places forgotten of the foot: they are gone away from men, they swing to and fro.
5 As for the earth, out of it comes bread: but under it is turned up as it were fire.
6 The stones of it are the place of sapphires: and it has dust of gold.
7 There is a path which no fowl knows, and which the falcon's eye has not seen:
8 The lion's whelps have not trodden it, nor the fierce lion passed by it.
9 He puts forth his hand upon the flinty rock; he overturns the mountains by the roots.
10 He cuts out rivers in the rocks; and his eye sees every precious thing.
11 He binds the streams from overflowing; and the thing that is hid brings he forth to light.
12 But where shall wisdom be found? and where is the place of understanding?
13 Man knows not the price thereof; neither is it found in the land of the living.
14 The deep says, It is not in me: and the sea says, It is not with me.
15 It cannot be gotten for gold, neither shall silver be weighed for the price thereof.
16 It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.
17 The gold and the crystal cannot equal it: and the exchange of it shall not be for jewels of fine gold.
18 No mention shall be made of coral, or of crystal: for the price of wisdom is above rubies.
19 The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold.
20 From where then comes wisdom? and where is the place of understanding?
21 Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, and concealed from the fowls of the air.
22 Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame of it with our ears.
23 God understands its way, and he knows its place.
24 For he looks to the ends of the earth, and sees under the whole heaven;
25 To make the weight for the wind; and he apportions the waters by measure.
26 When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder:
27 Then did he see it, and declare it; he prepared it, yea, and searched it out.
28 And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding. — Job 28 | King James 2000 Bible (KJB2K) The King James 2000 Bible, copyright © Doctor of Theology Robert A.

Quote
Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God, honor the emperor. Slaves, in reverent fear of God submit yourselves to your masters, not only to those who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh. For it is commendable if someone bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because they are conscious of God.
1 Peter 2:17-19 NIV (2011)

Scripture of the Day—March 30, 2024 What was Ancient Moab’s Heifer of Three Years Old? From the Bible’s King James ER Version
THE BURDEN OF ANCIENT MOAB AND HER DEMISE: Isaiah 15:1-5 - Because in the night—AR (H6144 - a court or town guarded by a watch) of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence; because in the night (H3883—to fold back (as a boomerang))—KIR (H7023 - a wall being built in a trench) of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence: He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places—to weep.
Moab shall howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard cut off. In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth; on the tops of their houses, and in their streets—every one shall howl, weeping abundantly. And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous unto him. 
My (God’s) heart shall cry out for MOAB; his fugitives shall flee unto ZOAR (H6820 - something small or ignoble)-an HEIFER (H5696 - something that revolves; circular) of THREE YEARS OLD (H7969 - a third story cell): for by the MOUNTING UP (H5927 - ascending up) of LUHITH (H3871 - a glistening metal saucer) with weeping shall they GO IT UP (H5927 - go away up); for IN THE WAY (1870 - as passengers) of HORONAIM (H2356—a double cave town) they shall raise up a cry of destruction. 
THEY KNEW THE DAY OF THE LORD HAD BEGUN: Isaiah 2:12-21 - For the DAY of the LORD of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up, and he shall be brought Low; And upon all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan, and upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up, And upon every high tower, and upon every fenced wall, And upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant pictures;   And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.   And the idols he shall utterly abolish. And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.   In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats—To go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.

The Key to True Knowledge
A discerning individual should consistently strive to distinguish between timeless, profound knowledge and transient, insignificant information.  Solomon’s assertion, “Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true knowledge,” encapsulates a core principle of wisdom delineated in the Bible. Here, “fear” extends beyond mere dread to encompass reverence, awe, and respect for the LORD. Let’s look into…

Meaning Of Fear the Lord Bible Verses
WHAT IS THE FEAR OF GOD It is important first to establish what fear of God is not. Fear of God is not “being scared of God,” though this is certainly a stance that many have embraced. I grew up in a form of fundamentalist Christianity that took the “scared straight” approach to faith. Sermons were filled with hellfire and brimstone. God was righteous, angry, and bent on retribution. If one did…

The Deceit of the Gibeonites
1 The victories of Israel became known to all the kings west of the Jordan—in the hills, in the foothills, and all along the coastal plain of the Mediterranean Sea as far north as Lebanon; these were the kings of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. 2 They all came together and joined forces to fight against Joshua and the Israelites.
3 But the people of Gibeon, who were Hivites, heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and Ai, 4 and they decided to deceive him. They went and got some food and loaded their donkeys with worn-out sacks and patched-up wineskins. 5 They put on ragged clothes and worn-out sandals that had been mended. The bread they took with them was dry and moldy. 6 Then they went to the camp at Gilgal and said to Joshua and the Israelites, “We have come from a distant land. We want you to make a treaty with us.”
7 But the Israelites said, “Why should we make a treaty with you? Maybe you live nearby.”
8 They said to Joshua, “We are at your service.”
Joshua asked them, “Who are you? Where do you come from?”
9 Then they told him this story: “We have come from a very distant land, sir, because we have heard of the Lord your God. We have heard about everything that he did in Egypt 10 and what he did to the two Amorite kings east of the Jordan: King Sihon of Heshbon and King Og of Bashan, who lived in Ashtaroth. 11 Our leaders and all the people that live in our land told us to get some food ready for a trip and to go and meet you. We were told to put ourselves at your service and ask you to make a treaty with us. 12 Look at our bread. When we left home with it and started out to meet you, it was still warm. But look! Now it is dry and moldy. 13 When we filled these wineskins, they were new, but look! They are torn. Our clothes and sandals are worn out from the long trip.”
14 The Israelites accepted some food from them, but did not consult the Lord about it. 15 Joshua made a treaty of friendship with the people of Gibeon and allowed them to live. The leaders of the community of Israel gave their solemn promise to keep the treaty.
16 Three days after the treaty had been made, the Israelites learned that these people did indeed live nearby. 17 So the people of Israel started out and three days later arrived at the cities where these people lived: Gibeon, Chephirah, Beeroth, and Kiriath Jearim. 18 But the Israelites could not kill them, because their leaders had made a solemn promise to them in the name of the Lord, Israel's God. All the people complained to the leaders about this, 19 but they answered, “We have made our solemn promise to them in the name of the Lord God of Israel. Now we cannot harm them. 20 We must let them live because of our promise; if we don't, God will punish us. 21 Let them live, but they will have to cut wood and carry water for us.” This was what the leaders suggested.
22 Joshua ordered the people of Gibeon to be brought to him, and he asked them, “Why did you deceive us and tell us that you were from far away, when you live right here? 23 Because you did this, God has condemned you. Your people will always be slaves, cutting wood and carrying water for the sanctuary of my God.”
24 They answered, “We did it, sir, because we learned that it was really true that the Lord your God had commanded his servant Moses to give you the whole land and to kill the people living in it as you advanced. We did it because we were terrified of you; we were in fear of our lives. 25 Now we are in your power; do with us what you think is right.” 26 So this is what Joshua did: he protected them and did not allow the people of Israel to kill them. 27 But at the same time he made them slaves, to cut wood and carry water for the people of Israel and for the Lord's altar. To this day they have continued to do this work in the place where the Lord has chosen to be worshiped. — Joshua 9 | Good News Translation (GNT) Good News Translation® (Today’s English Version, Second Edition) © 1992 American Bible Society.
