Terrified of God!

“It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God!”

Hebrews 10:31

Are you afraid of God or do you fear Him? There is a great difference in the two. When you are afraid of God there is no relationship with Him. When you are living in fellowship with Him you fear and honor Him more than anyone.

An atheist spends his life trying to convince himself that there is no God. If there is no God then he would not have to be afraid of Him. But if there is a God and he denies Him then what? Every man and woman who has ever lived will be accountable to God in the end. No one will “slip through the cracks” of Hell and end up in Heaven by mistake. God is very interested in what you did with what He gave you. Don’t forget the basis of your salvation is Jesus’ blood on the Cross. Nothing you do can merit salvation, but God still has plans for your life and He desires that you walk in those plans.

“Today Lord, give me the wisdom to know Your plans for my life. Help me to think Your thoughts, speak Your Words and do Your deeds. Give me discernment so I can say yes to You and no to everything else. Let me be terrified only of not pleasing You.”
