John Bevere Explains the Difference Between Being Scared of the Lord and Fearing the Lord Apr 22, 2021

Show notes

Ken Harrison is joined by internationally known evangelist and best-selling author John Bevere on the latest episode of “On the Edge with Ken Harrison.” Together they discuss an experience that forever influenced John’s walk with Christ, the difference between being scared of the Lord and fearing the Lord, and God’s call for us to return to his heart.

The difference between being scared of the Lord and fearing the Lord:

“A person who is scared of God has something to hide, but a person who fears God has nothing to hide. Fearing the Lord is not equal to being scared of God. We can't have intimacy with God if we’re scared of him, but rather the person who fears God is terrified of being away from him. We fear God when we embrace his heart and venerate him above everything and everyone else. What is important to him becomes important to me and what is not important to him is not important to me.”

On becoming a U.S. Navy SEAL and practicing the legacy of excellence...

“I would say to anybody who wants to become a SEAL, understand that your body is ten times more capable than your brain tells it that it is. When you become tired, and your muscles and your body are saying ‘I’m exhausted. I need rest.’ know that you can still keep going. In training, you’re going to be pushed to the edge of your capabilities and who you have always known yourself to be physically.

Once you are launched off the ledge of your limitations, you will realize that you didn't fail and you didn't fall down. Not only are you still on your feet, but you will have a whole set of new limits—this is what the training is all about, pushing you past your limits and coming through the other side. You will be able to do more than you ever thought possible.”
