SEEK DAILY, Thursday, June 5 Deuteronomy 6:17-25 THE FEAR OF THE LORD Be sure to keep the commands of the Lord your God and the stipulations and decrees He has given you. Deuteronomy 6:17, NIV For God’s promises to come to fulfilment in our lives, there is a part that we must play. The Word of God enjoins us to, “Do what is right and good in the Lord’s sight, so that....” When we do what is right, we are bound to have joy and we will enter into the fulfilment of God’s promises for our lives. It is not enough for us to fear the Lord, God expects us to also teach our children, neighbours, classmates, etc. to fear Him (vv. 20-24). The fear of the Lord must be passed on from generation to generation so that a generation which does not know the Lord will not arise from us. The situation we are witnessing in the world today is a proof that we are not doing well in this matter. Can God testify of you the way He testified personally of Job (Job 1:8)? For our up-coming generation to fear the Lord, we have a duty to show them an example. May God help you concerning this matter. • Birthday Blessing: “And the kingdom of Jehoshaphat was at peace, for his God had given him rest on every side.”- 2 Chronicles 20:30 Read Bible Through Passage: 2 Kings 17; John 11:1-26 In no relation is so much earthly happiness to be found, if it be entered upon discreetly, advisedly and in the fear of God. – J.
