There is one fear which every wise person must possess, and this is the fear of the Lord.

While the absence of the fear of the Lord has brought untold hardship upon many people’s lives, those who walked in it in the past all fulfilled their destinies.

One example of someone who fulfilled his destiny by walking in the fear of the Lord is Joseph. From his experience, we are left with no doubt that sexual immorality is not an invention of the 21st century. Also Read – Open Heavens Sunday 12th May 2019

As a matter of fact, it was this sin, among others, that destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. Besides, the household of Joseph’s father, Jacob, sexual immorality was noticeable – we read of Reuben’s escapable with his father’s wife in Genesis 35:22, which earned him a curse in Genesis 49:4.

In spite of the sexual immorality around him, Joseph feared the Lord, and this kept him from sleeping with his master’s wife. With fear and trembling, he said in Genesis 39:9:

“There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God? Also Read – Prayer Points For Sunday 12th May 2019

Where did Joseph find it written that sleeping with another man’s wife is sin, not only against her husband but also against God?

Considering that at the time he lived the Law of Moses was not yet given, it must have been the law of God written in his heart that constrained him (Romans 2:14-15). This law says in Exodus 20:14:

“Thou shalt not commit adultery.”

Joseph prospered because he feared the Lord. Do you fear the Lord? What is your character in your closet? How do you conduct yourself in hidden places?

When you are corrected of wrongdoing by the spiritual leadership God has placed over you, do you question them on where it is written in Scriptures? Also Read – Sunday Daily Declarations For 12th May 2019

Even after sowing where is it written, do you still argue? Or account of being chastised, have you not changed your church or parish three to four times?

Do you really fear the Lord? If you really fear the Lord you will not be dating a married man or woman. If you really want to prosper, always remember that Psalm 128:1-2 says:

“Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways. For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.”

Beloved, fear the Lord and abstain from all evil.

Open Heaven 13 May 2019 Prayer Point:Father, I come to You as a child, asking You to instil Your fear in my heart to help me always do the right thing, no matter where I am, from now onward.
