უფლის შიში სიბრძნის დასაწყისია: და წმიდა ცოდნა არის გაგება. რადგან ჩემით გამრავლდება შენი დღეები, and the years of your life shall be increased (ანდაზები 9:10,11)
There are not a lot of sermons anymore about the fear of the Lord. While the Word says, the fear of Lord is the beginning of wisdom. When people hear about the fear of the Lord, they often think about a God, who swings viciously with a scepter and you should be afraid of. But that is not the meaning, the Word gives. The fear of the Lord has nothing to do with terror or being afraid.
What does the fear of the Lord mean?
The fear of Lord means to have an awe, პატივისცემა, and reference for the Almighty God; The Creator of the heaven and the earth, და ყველაფერი არის შიგნით. He is the Highest God, and there is no one like Him.
The fear of the Lord means, that you honor Him, და უყვარდეს ის უპირველეს ყოვლისა and above everyone, and that you shall do what pleases Him. If you want to please Him, you will choose to stay in His will and therefore you shall დაიცავით მისი მცნებები.
არა იმიტომ, რომ უნდა, მაგრამ იმიტომ რომ გინდა.
You love Him, and you don’t want to do anything that will hurt Him and will cause a separation between Him and you.
ღმერთისადმი დაუმორჩილებლობა (ცოდვა) causes separation. That’s why you don’t want to walk in disobedience, but in obedience to God.

If you want to get wisdom, then it all begins with having a fear of the Lord. Only when you fear the Lord, you shall submit to Him and listen to Him and do what He wants you to do.
He wants the best for your life. Therefore He has given you His Word and His commandments. He doesn’t want to impose you with a set of rules, but He wants you to get to know Him and get to know His will. He wants you to know what is good and what is evil, so that you can remove your foot from evil.
God wants to keep you from evil and keep you from harm and you can only do that if you have wisdom. Therefore when you walk in His commandments, სიბრძნით იარე (The wisdom of the Lord, not of this world).
Get to know God, მამაო, and you shall get understanding
The only way to get to know the Father is through His Word (იესო). სხვა გზა არ არსებობს. You shall get to know HIs will (by His commandments). You shall get to know Him and therefore find understanding.
იესომ თქვა: "whosoever loves Me, shall keep My commandments”
If you really love Him and honor Him and have an awe and respect for Him, თქვენ უნდა დაიცავით მისი მცნებები and you shall walk in His will; in wisdom and understanding.
He is a Giver of life
Repent and turn to the Lord and He shall multiply your days, and the years of your life shall be increased.
ეშმაკი და მისი მომხრეები; demons steal, spoil and destroy lives, by executing destructive work (ტკივილი, მწუხარება, ავადმყოფობა, სიკვდილი, დესტრუქციული აზრები, და ა.შ) ხორცში; სხეული და სული. That is their field.
But the Lord is the Giver of life; მარადიული სიცოცხლე. If you accept Jesus as your Saviour and make Him Lord of your life and walk in His will; მის მცნებებში, then you shall walk in wisdom and understanding.
Your days shall be multiplied and the years of your life shall be increased. And it won’t stop on this earth, but it will continue. სიკვდილს ვერ ნახავთ, but you shall live eternally with Him. Isn’t that great!
