DAY 60 —
*Fear the Lord or Bear the Cost*
> “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” — Proverbs 1:7
God’s presence cannot be managed, marketed, or manipulated— *1 Samuel 6–9* reveals that treating holy things casually brings judgment, but honoring God releases direction, order, and leadership established by Him, not demanded by people.
*Proverbs 1–3* declares that wisdom is not information but obedience; rejecting correction invites destruction, while trusting the Lord with the whole heart makes straight what human wisdom distorts.
*Ezekiel 13–16* exposes false security—lying prophets soothe ears while sin grows, but God tears down every false covering to confront unfaithfulness and restore covenant love through discipline.
*1 Peter 1–2* calls believers to holy conduct—redeemed not by silver or gold but by Christ’s blood, chosen to be a holy nation that abandons deceit, compromise, and fleshly desires.
Reverence determines direction. Wisdom requires submission. Holiness sustains destiny. Fear the Lord, reject deception, walk in obedience, and become a living testimony of God’s order and glory.
Your brother in Christ,
Apostle Ashok Martin
