We consider another motive to help us live the Christian life to which the Lord called us: the fear of the Lord. This is something seldom heard in modern evangelical circles. Though it's not a very popular topic, it is something we need to hear and take account of in our Christian pilgrimage.

We look at two points:
*First, what the fear of the Lord is.
*And second, what the fear of the Lord can teach us.

We are urged to let the fear of the Lord be another means to awaken our souls from sleep, another motivation to seek His kingdom, and to reach out to others while there is still time. As Paul writes, "Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil" (Eph. 5:15-16).
