Returning to the Fear of the Lord: Losing it and Getting it Back
In his travels around the world, Steve Fatow has witnessed great men and women of God lose both their ministries and reputations due to one critical missing ingredient—the fear of the Lord. This fear is not about being afraid of God but is a deep, wholesome reverence, a dread of displeasing Him that governs a person's character and behavior. Without it, the body of Christ has faced devastating consequences.
Many in ministry today lack experiential holiness, as Steve often recalls a wise “What a man builds with his gift, he often destroys with his character.” This profound truth highlights the importance of character, not just gifting, as the foundation of a successful life and ministry.
The absence of the fear of the Lord has also led to a watered-down Gospel, powerless to transform lives. Thankfully, there is a rising awareness and a return to a Gospel that calls for a healthy fear of God—one rooted in a true understanding of His attributes and glory. Just as the angel in Revelation 14:6 declared, the call to "fear God and give Him glory" is being heard once again.
Steve Fatow’s Returning to the Fear of the Lord is written with one to deeply stir the body of Christ to embrace the fear of the Lord once more. This powerful message will ignite a renewed passion for Jesus and guide the church back to a place of true reverence and awe. To God be the glory forever! Amen.
