Sermon Discussion Questions

  1. What is “the fear of the Lord”? How is it different from the fear of man? From where does the fear of the Lord come from and what does it lead a believer to do?
  2. Psalm 111:10 tells us that the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. How does this wisdom lead us to obey the will of God even when others may not understand our actions?
  3. Jesus said to fear Him (God) in Luke 12:4-7. The fear of the Lord draws us closer to Him and is from where we draw strength to depart from evil (Pro 16:6). Why should ‘depart from evil’? How can we lead a life of greater holiness?
  4. What is godly courage to you? Are there instances in your life that you have allowed the fear of man to govern your actions? How can we endeavour to ensure that we cultivate a healthy fear of God in our lives?
