Preaching

Hello my readers,

Its been busy for me. Yet again, I found time to post. I've been studying the fear of the LORD. That is what my message tomorrow morning will be about. I've been doing a verse by verse study of Proverbs and I've been on Proverbs 1:7 for a while thinking and praying about it.

There is so much in that verse alone. The word fear in this verse means reverence and that means an act of respect. In my terms, I'm terrified of bees and when I come across a bee, I don't want to do anything to upset that bee or else it'll sting me. In short, I respect the bee so I don't upset it.

That is how we fear the LORD. We show Him respect in what we do before Him. Respect in prayer, singing, our behavior, worship, etc. We need to fear Him in all areas of our life. We fear(an act of respect) Him so we don't upset Him. He chastens us if we don't respect Him. The bee stings us if we don't respect it.

Anyways, I've been filling the pulpit for the last few weeks. My Pastor went to a preachers' conference in Quebec and he also went home to visit his mom and also to visit his wife's dad. So I've been busy preparing messages.

Sandy is doing a lesson for Sunday School tomorrow morning. She is also going to a ministry called the arctic tern. Its a young offenders facility. A young g i r l s offenders facility to make it more exact in the afternoon. That should be good for her.

Well, back to studying for me.

For His purpose,

Shane Gordon.
