One Reason Why You Must Fear the LORD God

Fear God Because His Punishment Is Dreadful

When wickedness grew on the earth, the LORD God sent a flood and destroyed all humans except Noah and his family. Think of the babies, the pregnant women, the beautiful women and the strong men who perished in the flood. None was shown mercy. Fear God.

When the sin of Sodom & Gomorrah grew, the LORD God sent fire from heaven and burnt to ashes the entire city. None was spared except Lot and his family. They were eating, drinking, and marrying when the fire came and devoured them. Fear God.

The Canaanites and many other fine cities were placed under the curse of destruction. The princes, fine men and women were slaughtered. The fattest of rams, the babies, were burnt. None was shown mercy. Fear God.

The LORD God stroke Egypt with terrible ills and killed the first born sons of the entire Egypt, from the house of Pharaoh to the house of the slave, except the Israelites. He drowned the whole army of Egypt in the red sea. Fear God.

The LORD God disciplined the people of Israel (His people) with horrifying rods: the rod of famine, the rod of slavery, the rod of plagues, the rod of war. Fear God.

FEAR the LORD God of Heaven. Fear God and live.

Yes, God abounds in merciful love, but He is very dreadful and terrible in his wrath and punishment. God’s punishment is no resemblance to human way of punishment. God is not man, so He does not punish like a man. Who will escape the tribunal of the Most High? No one! It is a terrible thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

The Salvation of the LORD God

Today is the acceptable year of the LORD. Salvation is now. Now is the time of God’s mercy. Repent from evil and receive His forgiveness. A day is coming when there will be no mercy. Turn away from your sins and believe in the LORD Jesus, and you will be saved from the day of His wrath, which is going to come upon sinners.
