So I'm posting this because I'm confused as to why this isn't preached enough. I can think of some reasons why but I've only heard one pastor in my life ever preach about this and I happen to watch it on YouTube. It's sooo essential with our walk with God. If you don't have the fear of God, then you will most likely fall away from the faith and maybe even hate God. That's how serious it is. So from watching that pastor talk about the fear of God to watching and hearing other pastors on YouTube, and what I've learned from God, this is what I've learned

\*\*The fear of God is:\*\*

\- To make God your one and only treasure

\- A committed relationship with God

\- A mature faith

\- The beginning of wisdom

\- How the joy of the Lord is found

\- God's delight & treasure

\*\*To commit to God, you:\*\*

\- Do your best to follow Jesus and yield to the Holy Spirit to do the rest. Start small if you can

\- Correct every thought or feeling that goes against the Word of God, and realize they're from satan or your flesh

\- Be accountable when you do a sinful act. Apologize and reconcile if it's against someone

\- Process your feelings with God

\- Accept your imperfection and the sovereignty of God

\- Let go of yourself and let God be everything you need

\- Bond with Christ with your suffering

This note I made for myself has revealed something in me that I never knew or experienced with my walk with God. I have a deeper relationship with God and I have the joy of the Lord. I've learned to accept myself for who I am and found contentment in where I'm at in life. God is my confidence. \*\*Fear the Lord!\*\*

Just wanted to warn those who haven't reached enlightenment yet, that Jesus Christ is calling you to have a relationship with Him. If you continue down this path, you will reach enlightenment and will probably never get to know the real truth. Enlightenment is a false truth and it exists because God allowed it.

Romans 1:21-32 NKJV

[21] "...because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. [22] Professing to be wise, they became fools, [23] and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things. [24] Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, [25] who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. [26] For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. [27] Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. [28] And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; [29] being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, [30] backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, [31] undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; [32] who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them."

Jesus isn't looking for those who can see but for those who can't see that they may see. Like I said once you've reached enlightenment they say your eyes will be open and you can never unsee it. God can still save you if He chooses to but you'll most likely never come to the knowledge of the truth if you become enlightened. I believe God gave me discernment of what is true and what is not true to warn you guys that enlightenment is not the truth but a false truth. It's your choice, God bless ❤️

James 3:14-16 NKJV

[14] But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. [15] This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. [16] For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there.
