The Fear of the Lord Brings Abundant Goodness

The Fear of the Lord is a profound reverence and awe towards God 

“Oh, how abundant is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you and worked for those who take refuge in you, in the sight of the children of mankind!” (Psalm 31:19 ESV)

Gods abundant goodness is stored up for those who fear Him. Of course we know that God is good all the time. And all the time, God is good. We joyfully say that to one another. It’s His nature to be good and it is evident in His love for us through Jesus Christ.

“Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!” (Psalm 34:8 ESV)

“The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him.” (Nahum 1:7 ESV)

 Therefore

“I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living!” (Psalm 27:13 ESV)

“Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” (Psalm 23:6 ESV)
