Day 2: Obey Your Father

Read Deuteronomy 13:4

Deuteronomy 13:4 “You shall walk after the Lord your God and fear him and keep his commandments and obey his voice, and you shall serve him and hold fast to him.”

This passage tells us to fear God alone. Think about all of your fears: some of those fears have been present in your life for a long time, while others are new. Maybe you fear rejection, personal loss, job loss, illness, or death. Maybe something else?

God’s Word tells us to fear only Him. What do we need to fear about Him? Why is fearing God a good thing? What would it look like to let God remove all of your fears except for your fear of Him?

“Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.”
