Takut akan Allah

PRAISE THE Lord! (Hallelujah!) Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the man who fears (reveres and worships) the Lord, who delights greatly in His commandments. [Deut. 10:12.]

2 His [spiritual] offspring shall be mighty upon earth; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

3 Prosperity and welfare are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.

4 Light arises in the darkness for the upright, gracious, compassionate, and just [who are in right standing with God].

Takut akan Allah di atas bukan dalam arti negatif, melainkan memuji, menghormati, mengagumi Dia, serta berkeinginan untuk menyenangkan hati-Nya. Rasa takut akan Allah seperti itulah yang membawa berkat ke dalam hidup orang yang percaya kepada-Nya!
