The Fear of the Lord Is the Beginning of Wisdom - Bill Johnson | The Pursuit of Wisdom Devotional

Bill Johnson talks about the fear of God. Solomon teaches in Proverbs 9 that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. But what does it mean to fear God? Fearing God does not mean being afraid of Him. There is a fear of God that actually draws us to Him. Do you want to build something that lasts and impacts eternity? It begins with the fear of God and wisdom.

... the beauty of this study is it releases us to FOLLOW OUR LOVING FATHER in all that His Kingdom means, AND break free of the manipulation and control that tries to make us slaves and shame-filled people

Bill Jeremiah 32:40 God does it for us AMP great scripture ❤He makes all things easy for us Jesus Christ bore all our sins diseases sicknesses and defeated satin and his demons on the cross for us not Him Yeshua Messiah He is always God even in the first 30 years when He did no miracles ! Acts 10:38 How God anointed Jesus Christ of Nazareth with power and He went around doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil! Recorded Jesus did 19 miracles and 12 by their own faith what is the Holy Spirit trying to tell us? He gave Revelation and breathed and inspired all scripture or the Spirit of Jesus ❤

It means to literally fear Him, out of the knowledge of knowing the devastating horrors He will befall upon the wicked who rebuke His counsel. It also means to respect Him, Love Him and give Him due Worship, for He is worthy to be praised.

[@LukeGeta]

Pastor Bill, could you kindly explain why wisdom is depicted as a female gender in this context? Additionally, what are the seven pillars she has built symbolizing?

[@DamonDuval]

Great questions!

[@prasadsatish971]

Remember bible in the old testament was written in Hebrew language. In Hebrew language wisdom is a female noun. New testament is written in Greek language.

[@prasadsatish971]

Also the seven pillers are found in proverbs chapter 9 in the old testament.down load Bible app and reading your language

[@MissSunshineHS]

Because the energy to reach wisdom comes from the feminine energy or what people would consider more feminine. Taking part in self care, routine, cleanliness, stability, mothering. Out of this energy comes growth and action, and from there wisdom.

[@gordongates7163]

​@prasadsatish971 thank you for pointing that out. I was starting to think of the seven churches of Asia in Revelations, my bad. I'm sorry. 😢😢😢. Numbers get me, not the book, but in coincidence, or dates, all that.
