The Fear of the Lord

"no one knows who the Son is except the Father
and who the Father is except the Son,
and anyone to whom the Son wills to reveal Him."
Luke 10:22

Lord I pray You reveal Yourself in such a way that we stand in awe of You and worship You. Let us see Your magnificence to the degree that we instantly realize You are worthy of all honor. May lawlessness be destroyed by the brightness of You appearance--by the revelation of who You are. May we tremble at Your word and at Your presence so we may become a home for You.1 

We turn from evil, trust in You and walk in Your ways. We listen to You and treasure Your commandments. We cry out for Your wisdom and discernment. We praise You, speak of Your love and give offerings to You. We have an undivided heart that fears You always.

Lord I thank You for Your promises to those who fear You--promises of lovingkindess, salvation, long life and healing. Thank You for revealing Your hidden secrets and keeping us hidden and sheltered from evil. Thank You for providing for us and delivering us during times of trouble. Thank You for Your Fatherly compassion and wisdom and knowledge of Your ways.
