Duane you are on point. I dig on this talk and Love Jesus. Thailand, yes lots of temptation. My wife is Thai. We have some land in Cha Am. Will be back in August, God willing. I just dont go to those wild places and I dont drink. Its game over if I drink and I have fear of that. A healthy fear I supose. When I go its God and me there too. Baptized my wife off the Phi Phi islands. I need to be an ambassador of Christ not a man full of iniquity. No way. Fear of God does help. Thanks for your service too. Got me listening real tough. ✝️
Thank you for taking the time to shed light on the word of God and point people to wisdom. God bless you Dewayne. By the way, as a side note I would love to get your perspective on the book of Job. Seems like no one can agree on that one! It is a tough book to read for me. Thanks.
Thirty minutes well spent. I agree, the fear of sin has become a replacement for the fear of God. Many get tricked by pastors who tell them a list of to-dos and what not to do, as if Christ is not in them to lead and guide.
Mr. Noel, may you cover the topic of suicide? Much of your audience are young men such as myself and our demographic has a suicide rate higher than ever. If this topic is too much I understand, but it would be greatly appreciated if you could give a few words.
@PT5-Shorts, Mr Noel does touch on this exact topic on his original page (Drycreek Wrangler School & podcast) I believe the title is “ Don’t give up”. I am in agreement.
I woke back up. October 28th 2019. Doctors couldn’t find the drugs in me. It was all out of my body when I admitted, but the empty bottles said otherwise. There is a reason why though and I’m trying to follow what is presented now. Lots of prayer, it scary, in a good way, how much I pray now. I just get a peace and my mind feels better when I do.
I would like to ask you a question, why has your religion forbid direct communication with the spirits of our loved one's? "Afterlife Investigation's: Scole Group Experiments" Why has your religion forbid this?
The second wisest man the world has ever known said : "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man." ~ Ecclesiastes 12:13
I hate my sins so much! There's sins that i keep committing over and over, and i hate it. My flesh is weak, but i won't give up on turning from those sins. I've been praying for strength and forgiveness and deliverance. Please pray for me 😢
Turning from sin to conquer our flesh is not Biblically sound doctrine. Even the thought of foolishness is sin ‘Proverbs 24:9. Believing the Gospel found in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 is sound doctrine.
The fact that you are penitent is the right path, if you didn't care then I'd start to worry. We will sin till the day we die, talk to our Lord he will guide you, you need to walk up the mountain, not sprint.
Galatians 5:16 "But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh." Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths." Believe that the Lord can AND will deliver you out of your struggles. Mark 11:24 "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." It will be done in accordance for His will for you.
Much love from South Africa, you are doing alot for me and calming me down I've been through the worst year of my life till this point and I'm hanging on by a thread and your videos have been so calming and helping, thank you sir
Hey DeWayne, I've had many people argue that to fear God just means to being in awe of him. I tell them they can have awe by seeing Mount Rushmore. But Jesus spoke about fearing God in context of don't forget who can drop you into hell. That's the one you should fear.
Thank you Dewayne. I’m female from Uk and you really speak to me in the way I need it. Started with horse channel (no horses 😂) but I’m here because of Christ having found me irrespective. Don’t stop doing this. In the pure way you do.
I also started with the horses channel,. Just soaking up life advice. And i just could sense there was something special about Uncle. I could tell he had the fear of God even without him preaching. So, it was not too much of a surprise to me when he started a Christian channel. Nice to meet you
For many years I was a Christian, but found myself beyond victory over my sins that I kept on going back to. But all that changed when I became serious, and started reading my Bible every day. I set apart the first of my day to be with God in prayer, and the reading of his word. Before I dedicated myself to that, I really did not like reading very often, sometimes I would read a book, but then I would go a long time without doing so. I don't read very fast, so it takes me a long time to absorb what I read and that might be a reason why I was always hesitant. But after reading the Bible through in a year, and then many times more now through the New Testament, Proverbs, and Psalms. I have noticed a leap in spiritual growth within me and a greater cognizance of the presence of God, also greater faith. I know firsthand God's faithfulness, and I can see how Jesus has always been there in my life chasing after me. Thanks for the lesson on the fear of God. That has always been a confusing thing to get my head around because most people don't even know what that means entirely. Have you ever read The Cost of Discipleship, by Dietrich Bonhoeffer?
Great message! The fear of God is truly missing in much of the Modern American Church. I've certainly been one. Thank you for sharing. We become what/who we behold. If we fear the sin, that is what we behold. But if we fear God. Then that is what we Behold. Ley us keep our eyes on Jesus. :)
Man is fallible, to a predictable fault. Only the book and those who follow it are the church of Christ. Walk with Christ not your pastor, everything you need do is written not told.
Every day I pray to God that I do not live today in self-delusion or ignorance of His will and expectations. One pragmatic concept I use to keep myself from becoming a prideful "know it all" is the concept of the Dunning Kruger Effect, where you're so prideful in your own intelligence that you ignore all critique and wander in a horrifying state of unrepentant ignorance. God has been absurdly kind in putting up with my decade of hedonistic atheism. There is nothing that terrifies me than losing the faith or favor that Jesus Christ gifted me with. Me and the woman I love are seeking a church that respects God and His word as sacred ends. Everything you've spoken about is absolutely true to a point where both of us pray before we take any step inside and outside our homes.
We left our assembly a year and a half ago, much for the same reasons you gave. Didn't leave with hard feelings or arguments, just felt like we needed to get out. We have started meeting in our home with another couple and our children and it has been good to have the fellowship and worship together again. I absolutely agree that there is little to zero repentance on churches today. I've even heard it said by people in church that if you repent after you're saved, you are relying on works to save you. A healthy fear of God leads us to repentance. A healthy fear of His judgement and knowing we will stand in front of Him someday and give an account of our life will cause us to want to clean up our lives and get the junk out. Thanks again for sharing this!
I am super new to Christianity and submitting to god. Within the past week. I have done so much work diligently and obsessively on myself to be the best man I can be for myself but more importantly for others. I’ve felt so much pain in the last 3 years at the same time. It’s been a fight for survival to be quite frank. I came to a point in which despite all of my efforts I lost my optimism and hope a week ago. I felt myself slipping from what I had built myself up to be. I’ve been met with a lot of rejection and betrayal through an ex lover and with people in general throughout my life but I never chose to be jaded. I always chose to love more and to keep on trying to keep on giving everything I had. Well in the past week I chose to submit myself to god in private. I know that the Bible mentions to not be ashamed of faith. I want to keep it to myself while I nourish it though. I truly believe that faith is exactly what I need and quite possibly the only thing I need to free myself of the above after 33 years of life. So with all of this being said I truly appreciate your videos as they are not embellished. It’s taken straight from scripture. I have watched all of your videos within this week and I am so grateful for them. Thank you 🙏🏼
Awesome. Please don’t be discouraged. Discouragement is a big weapon of the enemy and he will attack you at some point. If you feel discouraged remember it is not from God and pray fiery destruction over the hand of the devil sent to attack your life. I have learned this from personal experience. May Jesus Christ be with you.
@@percy3711 Thank you so much for the kind words. What you mentioned about discouragement being a weapon of the devil makes a lot of sense. It truly does feel like a battle consistently pulling you in both directions but if I think about it I choose to let the devil pull me in his direction in my weakest moments. Discouragement and hopelessness is in his direction. So I am so thankful to know whose direction I can choose to go in. In gods direction. I know the pain, it was real in my life so it’s the familiarity that pulls me toward it. I’m choosing to go toward the faith in those moments now. It’s truly restored so much hope that I have been seeking for so long. Anyways, I know I am overflowing but I truly appreciate the kind words.
It is really, really great and priceless that you finally are shifting your eyes to God, where they should look as a matter of fact. We are flesh and bones, because of this, rejections and that sort of challenges will blow us and it is painful. You know what the Savior Jesus Christ ( Yeshua)said, " Let not your heart be troubled , believe in God and believe also in me" . What he meant is there will be an end to our hurt and pain, what we should keep in our heart is the hope of the Almight God. The Lord is our light and our salvation ( Psalm 28), God will bring us to his light and the peace of God that we have when we put our trust in Him will help us to bear all the pain in this life. The God of heaven will support us and guide us safely to our heavenly place in Jesus Christ. So May the Lord help you and guide you. God bless.
God bless you and be gentle on yourself as you continue in being kind to others remember to give yourself positive Pat's on your back. Jesus loves us and will continue to guide you. Be true and kind to you. 🙏💞
I think your 100 percent right, no fear, most people only look at one character of GOD that’s love, so most people think they can act anyway they want, no fear. Also people put their trust in others and not what God said about things. Dewayne probably won’t see this, but I have really enjoy your teaching on this new platform.
Thank you Dwayne, Well said; Matthew 10:28 KJV "And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." I share your concern for assemblies which are led by individuals who are more terrified to face the displeasure of man than the displeasure of God. I believe that “Therein lies the problem”. One cannot fear a God whom he cannot see if his heart has been captured by the "fear of man" whom he can see. Galatians 1:10 KJV "For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ". For the church to live in the actual fear of God it will first need to find deliverance from the fear of man. Proverbs 29:25 KJV "The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the Lord shall be safe". May God grant "me" the grace day by day to live true to my own exhortation for herein have I failed and repented with Godly sorrow many times. To overcome I shall keep my eyes on Jesus and not man. Thank you!
Amen brother! To those who are deceived into thinking that to fear the LORD is simply to reverence and/or respect God: The LORD is again and again described as terrible, in Deuteronomy and in Hebrews God is called a consuming fire, when Jesus Christ returns the blood of His enemies will be as high as a horses bridal, and the mightiest men on earth will hide in fear, and beg the mountains to fall on them, so that they don't have to face God, Philippians 2:12 says to work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, and there are countless more examples throughout the scriptures that should cause anyone who reads it to have a fear of the LORD that is unrivaled! And ALL who don't fear God as they ought to right now can count on the fact that they will come to fear God later. The trembling fear of the LORD is where your salvation begins, and as your relationship with God grows stronger and more intimate your reverence and respect for Him will be added to your fear of Him.
My father taught me a long time ago regarding sin and pride that were more deep and inward outward " if we fear God we wouldn't worship an earthly country more than his heavenly kingdom and country and exchange it for any country - USA or any country . The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. Amen .Thank you .
D’Wayne, I fear God and I am battling with the cravings of the flesh. My biggest issue is getting to know people, and I pray about it everyday. My past hasn’t presented me with very great influences and I am afraid of being that bad influence for my fellow Christian brother’s / sister’s. After highschool I used to smoke weed every single day, a habbit that I have realised ruined my life. I have no self control over the cravings of the flesh, but I am rounding the corner of being a month sober. My faith in Christ and fear of God is the only thing keeping me from breaking, as well as your video’s. Although I have such a strong feeling that I need to connect with my church leaders more, and confess my sins, this fear of getting to know people haunts me everyday.
Good on you for your month of sobriety from weed. I was also a daily all day smoker for 10 plus years but the Lord helped me get away from it. It gets much easier believe me. Be careful of getting to know people, a lot of people in church buildings are wolves in sheep's clothing. Christ often wants us in isolation. I learn more from people like Dewayne and others online than I ever could from a church building.
Hey I used to be a stoner for years and recently fell back into the habit and weed is the number one reason you struggle with the flesh, especially sexual immorality and I realized that because I also kept falling back into this struggle with my sin As long as you realize that you don't lose your salvation everytime you sin, but also that you are sowing death into your life. You need to let go of the selfish desires of your heart and seek the will of God and ask for a pure heart.
Keep it up. The closer your relationship is with God the less sin is a factor. We are all sinful but I find the more I pray and keep in open communication the less I want or feel like sinning. 1st month is the hardest when quitting; after the 3rd month only problems make you want to return to that lifestyle
During covid I read the 1689 Westminster Confessional which was written by men who could have been put to death for writing it. Let that sink in. It defines and explains God’s bible in the clearest way man could explain at the time. Remember in 1689 the KJV had not been out long and people were just learning what God had said in the bible. What I drew from this book was how magnificent, holy, righteous and powerful our God is! How much He is utterly worthy of our worship and yes fear. He actually became GOD sized to me and with this revelation I realized how our modern church is all consumed with HOW TO and WHAT TO and has completely missed WHO TO and WHY TO. I am also adrift without a church building, but not without my God or faith as I wait for “wise” worshipers. I know others are out there because I see videos like this and I think, this is God willowing us. I need to be patient, God is MAGNIFICENT and I am waiting on HIM. Dwayne these videos are very helpful. Thank you
Fear of repercussions has saved my life numerous times. I have even been extremely high on psychedelic drugs and was concerned about the repercussions enough to do the right thing.
I would love to speak to you over the phone or email...im 23 and have been struggling with pornography, lust, anger, alcoholism, and in general every act of sin. I've been feeling the desire and longing to come back to christ and have searched for it. But the truth is I've ever only known him in name only. I've never been a true follower. But I want to change that. I don't even know where to begin. I feel so lost in the sea of sin I've created for myself. I've watched countless videos and channels but since I've found yours its made it seem easier to establish a relationship with him and begin my true faith in Jesus and God. If you are available I'd love to speak with you. God bless you, your videos have really helped me find a footing! If anyone reads this and has advice please comment. Im so sick and tired of this. I live a life if sinfulness and pleasure. I want to quit with every fiber of my being but I feel trapped and feel ill never overcome it. I don't want to die a follower of the world. I want to be embraced in God's glory.
Man this hits home. All these motivational books these days are self serving, thank God for the Bible for being our ultimate source of wisdom! Thanks for reminding us the awesomeness of biblical manhood because it is truly a beautiful thing when a man is strong and leads. Great reminder to chew on!
So much love from a young Italian guy for this channel. I come here after watching some of your videos on Dry Creek Wrangler School and this channel just like the other one is a breath of fresh air in a world that is increasingly dirty and corrupt. Dwayne without knowing it you are helping me get through a difficult period in my life and you are making me rediscover faith after years of doubts and unhealthy atheist friendships. God bless you and the genuine American spirit that I have been looking for for a long time
For some of us we didn’t have an earthly father and it’s not about fear for me it’s ignorance there was no one there to teach me thank you for your kind words always
I’ve studied Marcus Arelious teaching myself how to be a father a man a better person wisdom of the ages I can’t read but there’s plenty of videos right here on the Skagit I’m self-taught forced to be God’s will is his own
Thank you sir, fear is such a misunderstood term these days, and your reminder is absolutely needed! Some of us can't weep anymore because it hurts too much but that don't mean we don't need too
Fear him in love. I believe he explained this very thing, fear is different from being terrified. Fear in this context is being used as Fear disappointing him. Fear him righteously in love.
I love this! Thanks for sharing. The fear of the lord is the secret to your prayer life, the secret to your financial stability, the secret to the wellness of your mind, and it’s the secret to a happy marriage, and I could go on and on. Nothing is more important in life than fearing the Lord. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man! People do not keep his commandments, because they do not fear God. My whole life changed when I started fearing the Lord, obeying his commandments and reading my bible daily. I'm truly blessed now because of it. ❤
Fearing God is a deep reverence and respect for God. The fear of God is respecting Him, obeying Him, submitting to His discipline, and worshiping Him in awe.
@@DecarloThorntonNo brother! It’s more cowardly to know the truth and be scared to submit to the creator. Don’t let people of the world take you off the path Of Jesus Christ ✝️
Do your children really *FEAR* you, or do they just ❤ *RESPECT* you, because you're a Man of your word!?! There's a big difference between the two! My earthly Father (R.I.P.) was a VERY tall, strong and an intimidating man, but he didn't ever have to lay his hands on me, in order for me to listen to him & respect him!
Church today really don’t teach about fearing God they’re all teaching about loving and accepting everything that comes down the pike in all of peoples delusions and psychosis and that’s what they’re being taught. God is nothing but love and there is no correction . According to the churches today, God won’t strike you down . God won’t Cause anything to happen negative in your life, although the Bible says that I (God) bring calamity,. God doesn’t change. in the Old Testament we are taught that we are to fear God because God is also vengeful and correct you The pastors are not teaching them correctly and it’s on their heads. Sadly, the Bible teaches us that it is on the teachers head if they teach them wrong. 🤷🏻♀️
I greatly appreciate this video. I look forward to others like it. I agree all wisdom comes from God, but I think sometimes it takes a man like you explaining it for a man like me to have it click.
Fear: Interestingly, the Hebrew word יִרְאַ֣ת or 'yare' = Awe and reverence ♥ I would say, Pride is far more destructive ... “A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and, of course, as long as you are looking down, you cannot see that which is above you.” C.S. Lewis
My parents disciplined us. But there was a difference in the way each one did it. At that time parents used a swat on the backside. My daddy did. My dad was a hard working man that took his family responsibilities seriously. But what I remember most were the "talks" when I did something I shouldn't have. I would look at his tired, weary face and see the disappointment and sadness at what I had done. So I grew up with a fear of disappointing, disrespecting and dishonoring him. I was looking forward to this topic DeWayne. You did not disappoint. Thank you.
PROVERBS 1:29-33 29 that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: 30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. 31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. 32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them. 33 But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.
Our only righteousness is Christ. The flesh is dead. God was done with the flesh at the flood. We are alive in Christ. If you are saved by grace through faith, then the Father only sees Christ when he looks at you. Every day we all sin in thought, action and deed. When we were saved God removed our sins as far as the east is from the west. We should reckon the old man dead, and not fall for the deceits of sin. The law declares us guilty but the law is but a school master pointing to Christ. As saints, let us not go back to the law, but look to Christ. Let us not "date Moses", while married to Christ. Let us not call God a liar concerning the testimony of his Son. Sin will take you farther than you want to go, keep you longer than you want to stay, and cost you more than you want to pay. We should fear the principle of sin, but run to Christ. For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
My ex wife told me one time that our girls were afraid or scared of me. Which I told her that was a good thing. Now it wasn't a fear because I was mean or abusive to them but because they knew there was consequences to their actions. And guess what? I never hardly even had to get on em.
May our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ continue to bless you and your family as well as all and any endeavors you undertake. Stay in His Word and continue to stay on the straight and narrow Way. God bless you.
Thank you Dwayne, I needed to hear this! I'm a long time viewer, drinker of wrangler coffee. I'm a retired police officer, broken down cowboy. I suffer from severe ptsd and your videos help me so much! Thank you so much God bless you and your family
Dear sir thank you for your time this day. I have only subscribed shortly now. You are the first person on UA-cam that when they say we’re going to read this chapter, that I’ve been almost yelled at in the back of my head, “Andy pause this and go get your Bible out right now.” Thank You God for bring this man to my life. Sir you make so much sense. Simple straightforward common sense that Bible study. Amen Jesus.
Thank you again Dewanye, for hitting the nail on the head. With what I was struggling with, when it came to Fearing ABBA. I was lacking the understanding and now I get it. Peace.
Thank you for doing this. I think you're representing a Godly dad that a lot of us (including me) didn't have. My dad pretended to be Godly for a long time and then suddenly switched to showing his true colors all at once and it was traumatic for my whole family. Its a shame because he had that "fearful dad" energy that could have been godly, he made us act right but it wasnt about having Godly kids it was about getting praise from other adults about how well behaved his kids were. Its oddly comforting to listen to someone with that masculine authority who wouldnt cut you down but would also tell you how it is with no sugar coating. I know lots of other people have had worse fathers than mine too. All us children of failed fathers need this.
Dewayne, what books in the Bible should I read as a young man seeking wisdom? I am already reading Proverbs, are there other books such as Proverbs that provide wisdom and advice?
Thanks for this wisdom today sir it's like how the TV was made for example if you watch the TV and the things you view on the TV their programming you to do wrong instead of right in today's life their making it seem like good is bad and bad is good and this is in the bible we are in the book of revelations for these things will come to pass. But remember this verse Proverbs 11:8 The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead. Meaning seek God and you will be saved from evil and the wicked will be put in your place instead.
Hello Dwayne, I'd like to say I have extreme respect for how adamant you are about only talking about Jesus, such spearheaded faith is needed in this day and age
When I tell you I lived in your cabin in Alaska for 8 years: I mean I surely did. Met you at Jeff's house one night. I've been watching your content for 2 years and only TODAY realized who you are.
After I Listened to the message all the way through, I had to pray and ask the LORD to forgive me, and help me to fear Him, help me to seek Him and His Holiness. I am thankful For this message you shared. I needed it.
When i was a kid until 12 i asked God ro take my father when i realized he wouldn't i asked him to take me . Sometimes youl hear things like one day you are responsible for who you become. Its true to a point but abuse that is constant and predictable leaves you changed then you rgink God really doeant care it effects your thinking your actions and how you see God . One day youl realize it isnt true and the God you believe in will Show up but you'll never understand
God is big, He created the universe, He holds our soul in His hands, to think He can control the elements even when you are in a tornado, You will fear Him, and repent,and turn to His ways, this life determines our eternity forever, and this life is but a Vapor in midst of all time forever, so we should fear God
Hi Dwayne…yes yes yes!! The pride… the audacity to act on one’s own and doing what one wants to do and not what God wants does come from a lack of fear of God. Same with a lack of fear of their earthly Father… I tried to train all our children up in the Lord and homeschooled also but my husband did not have a fear of God at all and today one of my daughters, the one he had wrapped around his finger, has gone and embraced the pride of this modern agenda in our country, devastating us all by her choices and he abandoned me. Must study the Bible hand in hand with knowledge of the philosophers. Wonder if you are familiar with Robinson Curriculum or Omnibus? Marcus Aurelius was one of the books in Omnibus. I really appreciate those text books so much for studying the Bible and the classics side by side for wisdom and knowledge and fear of the Lord by learning about the rise and fall of men and civilizations. We need a Charlemagne and King Alfred reformation of learning. Two of my favorites. I really appreciate your teaching from Tennessee.
I have a question for you Dewayne. What are your thoughts on the alienation that follows after you choose to follow God in a wicked world? Another thing I experience is that seeing how perfect and holy God is it’s hard to keep myself motivated to live in this evil world. It doesn’t help to come from a place where 99% of the people have replaced God with money. Thank you for the wisdom you share with us. It’s not often someone makes me think as deep as you do. I pray for an answer and that the Holy Spirit will continue to talk through you for us who value wisdom more than gold.
I found your main channel and enjoyed the heart to heart talks. Can’t lie and say I care too much about horses. But this is by far the best channel UA-cam has to offer me. Thank you for doing it. Praise be to God
You said it that explains everything. Thank you for following what the Lord has impressed upon your heart. You done the will of God, I needed that and so do many many others. Thank you Jesus for your message 🙏
I used to use anger as a tactic to get my kids to behave. I hated the look in their eyes they gave me when I was using anger. I didn't want to see that look and decided to really look at how I discipline. I'm trying to discipline more with love and I've found they obey out of love rather than fear. where is the fine line of kids having the proper fear of me vs being scared? I learned that using anger would get me short term the results I wanted but later lead to greater disconnect in the long run.
The answer lies in the word that you use here. “Anger“. Anger is motion, and I agree anger has no place when it comes to discipline. It has to be simple immutable boundaries. And they have to know that when they cross those boundaries, the discipline is not personal or emotional from you, it is simply the result of them willingly crossing a boundary that has been set. The fear is not a fear of your anger or uncontrolled emotion, it is the fear of a father who does not lie, and who is not a pushover, but who sets things in place for their safety and for their well-being.
@@TackRoomBibleTalk that makes sense. thanks for clarifying. I had a father who used anger and I've had to do a lot of work to unlearn that. Thanks again, your videos really are a great help.
Uncle Dwayne, you uploaded this video just in time! As I was at a point in my life where I constantly struggle with lust, I was looking for the wisdom of a grown man and you gave it to me through God Almighty. I'll take your advice sir. My best regards to you and thank you so much!🙏
I find it hard to fear God, not because I think he is weak or not worth fearing, but I know how much he genuinely and truly loves us. Its hard to fear my lord when I know he only has love for me,
There's a healthy kind of fear. Dwayne in this video brought up the practical examples of a child fearing to disappoint their dads, not an abusive manner where it's to avoid wrath as the end, but a fear of the Lord because you love and respect Him, especially in an act of gratitude realizing you and all mankind wouldn't exist without Him. Realize that we are talking about the God that created objective reality that made us in HIS image.
Our Lord God is a vengeful, jealous God also. If you take his name and then continue to not fear Him, He will rejoice in your destruction just as well as He rejoiced in the day you were found. Fear Him
I've heard pastors, my whole life ( I'm pretty old), always say that the fear of the Lord, meaning is a reverence for the Lord. It has always rubbed me the wrong way, because I believe it means real fear of God's judgment, and once you have repented and accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior, then you develop love and reverence.
Self righteousness can and will lead to not having the fear of God, that's what I experienced along with no wholehearted repentance or tears ,to my own shame ive been very unwise but not anymore praise be to God alone. ( I would strongly recommend listening to this message more than once. ) Glory to God.
"The answer is not to fear the sin, the answer is to fear God.
The more you fear God, the more the sin will take care of itself."
AMEN
Amen 🙏
Timothy 1:7 New King James Version
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
Fearing the lord is the beginning of wisdom 😮
Duane you are on point. I dig on this talk and Love Jesus. Thailand, yes lots of temptation. My wife is Thai. We have some land in Cha Am. Will be back in August, God willing. I just dont go to those wild places and I dont drink. Its game over if I drink and I have fear of that. A healthy fear I supose. When I go its God and me there too. Baptized my wife off the Phi Phi islands. I need to be an ambassador of Christ not a man full of iniquity. No way. Fear of God does help. Thanks for your service too. Got me listening real tough. ✝️
thanking God for this solid Truth ❤
Thank u Sir, I’ve need to hear this for many years. 😢
Thank you for your time and wisdom.
Thank you for taking the time to shed light on the word of God and point people to wisdom. God bless you Dewayne.
By the way, as a side note I would love to get your perspective on the book of Job. Seems like no one can agree on that one! It is a tough book to read for me. Thanks.
God I love you
Thank you🙏🙏🙏
Thirty minutes well spent. I agree, the fear of sin has become a replacement for the fear of God. Many get tricked by pastors who tell them a list of to-dos and what not to do, as if Christ is not in them to lead and guide.
No reverence for Almighty God.
King James is King James. As long as it has the King James Code it is the Word of God.
Mr. Noel, may you cover the topic of suicide? Much of your audience are young men such as myself and our demographic has a suicide rate higher than ever. If this topic is too much I understand, but it would be greatly appreciated if you could give a few words.
@PT5-Shorts, Mr Noel does touch on this exact topic on his original page (Drycreek Wrangler School & podcast) I believe the title is “ Don’t give up”. I am in agreement.
I woke back up. October 28th 2019. Doctors couldn’t find the drugs in me. It was all out of my body when I admitted, but the empty bottles said otherwise. There is a reason why though and I’m trying to follow what is presented now. Lots of prayer, it scary, in a good way, how much I pray now. I just get a peace and my mind feels better when I do.
"The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom."
Thank you my friend
How is it the beginning of the wisdom? Can you please explain ?
I would like to ask you a question, why has your religion forbid direct communication with the spirits of our loved one's?

Why has your religion forbid this?

I hate my sins so much! There's sins that i keep committing over and over, and i hate it. My flesh is weak, but i won't give up on turning from those sins. I've been praying for strength and forgiveness and deliverance. Please pray for me 😢
🙏🙏🙏

Turning from sin to conquer our flesh is not Biblically sound doctrine.
Even the thought of foolishness is sin ‘Proverbs 24:9.
Believing the Gospel found in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 is sound doctrine.
The fact that you are penitent is the right path, if you didn't care then I'd start to worry. We will sin till the day we die, talk to our Lord he will guide you, you need to walk up the mountain, not sprint.
Galatians 5:16
"But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh."
Proverbs 3:5-6
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths."
Believe that the Lord can AND will deliver you out of your struggles.
Mark 11:24
"Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours."
It will be done in accordance for His will for you.
Much love from South Africa, you are doing alot for me and calming me down I've been through the worst year of my life till this point and I'm hanging on by a thread and your videos have been so calming and helping, thank you sir
Take care of yourself. Bless you ❤
Hold on my friend, I been through dark vally also. But hold on to God, there is light up ahead. God bless you..
Hey do u have snapchat? I'm a follower of Christ and I would love to help you!
Check out Bear Independent- he is awesome!
Hold on my brother in Christ, ye shall weather the storm, hold on, and keep taking steps forward no matter how small.
Always look to Jesus. Where we stare,we steer.
Very good saying ✝️.

Steer yer ass right into the abyss, 😒
He was a suicidal drunk... not sure why all the reverence.
Hebrews 10:31
For it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Amen.
Hey DeWayne,
I've had many people argue that to fear God just means to being in awe of him.
I tell them they can have awe by seeing Mount Rushmore. But Jesus spoke about fearing God in context of don't forget who can drop you into hell. That's the one you should fear.
Fantastica answer, praise God!
Thank you Dewayne. I’m female from Uk and you really speak to me in the way I need it. Started with horse channel (no horses 😂) but I’m here because of Christ having found me irrespective. Don’t stop doing this. In the pure way you do.
I also started with the horses channel,. Just soaking up life advice. And i just could sense there was something special about Uncle. I could tell he had the fear of God even without him preaching. So, it was not too much of a surprise to me when he started a Christian channel. Nice to meet you
Jesus Christ is The Lord. Bless you all
Please pray for my mental and spiritual situation to come back fully to God
done.
For many years I was a Christian, but found myself beyond victory over my sins that I kept on going back to. But all that changed when I became serious, and started reading my Bible every day. I set apart the first of my day to be with God in prayer, and the reading of his word. Before I dedicated myself to that, I really did not like reading very often, sometimes I would read a book, but then I would go a long time without doing so. I don't read very fast, so it takes me a long time to absorb what I read and that might be a reason why I was always hesitant. But after reading the Bible through in a year, and then many times more now through the New Testament, Proverbs, and Psalms. I have noticed a leap in spiritual growth within me and a greater cognizance of the presence of God, also greater faith. I know firsthand God's faithfulness, and I can see how Jesus has always been there in my life chasing after me. Thanks for the lesson on the fear of God. That has always been a confusing thing to get my head around because most people don't even know what that means entirely. Have you ever read The Cost of Discipleship, by Dietrich Bonhoeffer?
Great message! The fear of God is truly missing in much of the Modern American Church. I've certainly been one. Thank you for sharing. We become what/who we behold. If we fear the sin, that is what we behold. But if we fear God. Then that is what we Behold. Ley us keep our eyes on Jesus. :)
Man is fallible, to a predictable fault. Only the book and those who follow it are the church of Christ. Walk with Christ not your pastor, everything you need do is written not told.
Every day I pray to God that I do not live today in self-delusion or ignorance of His will and expectations.
One pragmatic concept I use to keep myself from becoming a prideful "know it all" is the concept of the Dunning Kruger Effect, where you're so prideful in your own intelligence that you ignore all critique and wander in a horrifying state of unrepentant ignorance.
God has been absurdly kind in putting up with my decade of hedonistic atheism.
There is nothing that terrifies me than losing the faith or favor that Jesus Christ gifted me with.
Me and the woman I love are seeking a church that respects God and His word as sacred ends.
Everything you've spoken about is absolutely true to a point where both of us pray before we take any step inside and outside our homes.
We left our assembly a year and a half ago, much for the same reasons you gave. Didn't leave with hard feelings or arguments, just felt like we needed to get out. We have started meeting in our home with another couple and our children and it has been good to have the fellowship and worship together again. I absolutely agree that there is little to zero repentance on churches today. I've even heard it said by people in church that if you repent after you're saved, you are relying on works to save you. A healthy fear of God leads us to repentance. A healthy fear of His judgement and knowing we will stand in front of Him someday and give an account of our life will cause us to want to clean up our lives and get the junk out. Thanks again for sharing this!
I am super new to Christianity and submitting to god. Within the past week. I have done so much work diligently and obsessively on myself to be the best man I can be for myself but more importantly for others. I’ve felt so much pain in the last 3 years at the same time. It’s been a fight for survival to be quite frank. I came to a point in which despite all of my efforts I lost my optimism and hope a week ago. I felt myself slipping from what I had built myself up to be. I’ve been met with a lot of rejection and betrayal through an ex lover and with people in general throughout my life but I never chose to be jaded. I always chose to love more and to keep on trying to keep on giving everything I had. Well in the past week I chose to submit myself to god in private. I know that the Bible mentions to not be ashamed of faith. I want to keep it to myself while I nourish it though. I truly believe that faith is exactly what I need and quite possibly the only thing I need to free myself of the above after 33 years of life. So with all of this being said I truly appreciate your videos as they are not embellished. It’s taken straight from scripture. I have watched all of your videos within this week and I am so grateful for them. Thank you 🙏🏼
Awesome. Please don’t be discouraged. Discouragement is a big weapon of the enemy and he will attack you at some point. If you feel discouraged remember it is not from God and pray fiery destruction over the hand of the devil sent to attack your life. I have learned this from personal experience. May Jesus Christ be with you.
@@percy3711 Thank you so much for the kind words. What you mentioned about discouragement being a weapon of the devil makes a lot of sense. It truly does feel like a battle consistently pulling you in both directions but if I think about it I choose to let the devil pull me in his direction in my weakest moments. Discouragement and hopelessness is in his direction. So I am so thankful to know whose direction I can choose to go in. In gods direction. I know the pain, it was real in my life so it’s the familiarity that pulls me toward it. I’m choosing to go toward the faith in those moments now. It’s truly restored so much hope that I have been seeking for so long. Anyways, I know I am overflowing but I truly appreciate the kind words.
It is really, really great and priceless that you finally are shifting your eyes to God, where they should look as a matter of fact. We are flesh and bones, because of this, rejections and that sort of challenges will blow us and it is painful. You know what the Savior Jesus Christ ( Yeshua)said, " Let not your heart be troubled , believe in God and believe also in me" . What he meant is there will be an end to our hurt and pain, what we should keep in our heart is the hope of the Almight God. The Lord is our light and our salvation ( Psalm 28), God will bring us to his light and the peace of God that we have when we put our trust in Him will help us to bear all the pain in this life. The God of heaven will support us and guide us safely to our heavenly place in Jesus Christ. So May the Lord help you and guide you. God bless.
God bless you and be gentle on yourself as you continue in being kind to others remember to give yourself positive Pat's on your back. Jesus loves us and will continue to guide you. Be true and kind to you. 🙏💞
How are you doing a month later brother?
Great Message! Thank you for sharing! God Bless you and your Family!❤️🐑✝️
I think your 100 percent right, no fear, most people only look at one character of GOD that’s love, so most people think they can act anyway they want, no fear. Also people put their trust in others and not what God said about things. Dewayne probably won’t see this, but I have really enjoy your teaching on this new platform.
Thank you Dwayne, Well said; Matthew 10:28 KJV "And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." I share your concern for assemblies which are led by individuals who are more terrified to face the displeasure of man than the displeasure of God. I believe that “Therein lies the problem”. One cannot fear a God whom he cannot see if his heart has been captured by the "fear of man" whom he can see. Galatians 1:10 KJV "For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ". For the church to live in the actual fear of God it will first need to find deliverance from the fear of man. Proverbs 29:25 KJV "The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the Lord shall be safe". May God grant "me" the grace day by day to live true to my own exhortation for herein have I failed and repented with Godly sorrow many times. To overcome I shall keep my eyes on Jesus and not man. Thank you!
Amen brother!
To those who are deceived into thinking that to fear the LORD is simply to reverence and/or respect God:
The LORD is again and again described as terrible, in Deuteronomy and in Hebrews God is called a consuming fire, when Jesus Christ returns the blood of His enemies will be as high as a horses bridal, and the mightiest men on earth will hide in fear, and beg the mountains to fall on them, so that they don't have to face God, Philippians 2:12 says to work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, and there are countless more examples throughout the scriptures that should cause anyone who reads it to have a fear of the LORD that is unrivaled! And ALL who don't fear God as they ought to right now can count on the fact that they will come to fear God later.
The trembling fear of the LORD is where your salvation begins, and as your relationship with God grows stronger and more intimate your reverence and respect for Him will be added to your fear of Him.
My father taught me a long time ago regarding sin and pride that were more deep and inward outward " if we fear God we wouldn't worship an earthly country more than his heavenly kingdom and country and exchange it for any country - USA or any country . The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. Amen .Thank you .
D’Wayne, I fear God and I am battling with the cravings of the flesh. My biggest issue is getting to know people, and I pray about it everyday. My past hasn’t presented me with very great influences and I am afraid of being that bad influence for my fellow Christian brother’s / sister’s. After highschool I used to smoke weed every single day, a habbit that I have realised ruined my life. I have no self control over the cravings of the flesh, but I am rounding the corner of being a month sober. My faith in Christ and fear of God is the only thing keeping me from breaking, as well as your video’s. Although I have such a strong feeling that I need to connect with my church leaders more, and confess my sins, this fear of getting to know people haunts me everyday.
Good on you for your month of sobriety from weed. I was also a daily all day smoker for 10 plus years but the Lord helped me get away from it. It gets much easier believe me. Be careful of getting to know people, a lot of people in church buildings are wolves in sheep's clothing. Christ often wants us in isolation. I learn more from people like Dewayne and others online than I ever could from a church building.
Hey I used to be a stoner for years and recently fell back into the habit and weed is the number one reason you struggle with the flesh, especially sexual immorality and I realized that because I also kept falling back into this struggle with my sin
As long as you realize that you don't lose your salvation everytime you sin, but also that you are sowing death into your life. You need to let go of the selfish desires of your heart and seek the will of God and ask for a pure heart.
Keep it up. The closer your relationship is with God the less sin is a factor. We are all sinful but I find the more I pray and keep in open communication the less I want or feel like sinning. 1st month is the hardest when quitting; after the 3rd month only problems make you want to return to that lifestyle
During covid I read the 1689 Westminster Confessional which was written by men who could have been put to death for writing it. Let that sink in. It defines and explains God’s bible in the clearest way man could explain at the time. Remember in 1689 the KJV had not been out long and people were just learning what God had said in the bible. What I drew from this book was how magnificent, holy, righteous and powerful our God is! How much He is utterly worthy of our worship and yes fear. He actually became GOD sized to me and with this revelation I realized how our modern church is all consumed with HOW TO and WHAT TO and has completely missed WHO TO and WHY TO. I am also adrift without a church building, but not without my God or faith as I wait for “wise” worshipers. I know others are out there because I see videos like this and I think, this is God willowing us. I need to be patient, God is MAGNIFICENT and I am waiting on HIM. Dwayne these videos are very helpful. Thank you
would love to hear your testimony story , if possible
You are spot on with that Dewayne about how to handle the attraction of Gods beauty in a woman!!
Thank you so much for these talks, you’re a blessing.
I am in agreement! 👌
Fear of repercussions has saved my life numerous times. I have even been extremely high on psychedelic drugs and was concerned about the repercussions enough to do the right thing.
As a Christian? They can be terrifying
I would love to speak to you over the phone or email...im 23 and have been struggling with pornography, lust, anger, alcoholism, and in general every act of sin. I've been feeling the desire and longing to come back to christ and have searched for it. But the truth is I've ever only known him in name only. I've never been a true follower. But I want to change that. I don't even know where to begin. I feel so lost in the sea of sin I've created for myself. I've watched countless videos and channels but since I've found yours its made it seem easier to establish a relationship with him and begin my true faith in Jesus and God. If you are available I'd love to speak with you. God bless you, your videos have really helped me find a footing! If anyone reads this and has advice please comment. Im so sick and tired of this. I live a life if sinfulness and pleasure. I want to quit with every fiber of my being but I feel trapped and feel ill never overcome it. I don't want to die a follower of the world. I want to be embraced in God's glory.
Hey brother! How are you doing? Are you truly following christ now?
Man this hits home. All these motivational books these days are self serving, thank God for the Bible for being our ultimate source of wisdom! Thanks for reminding us the awesomeness of biblical manhood because it is truly a beautiful thing when a man is strong and leads. Great reminder to chew on!
Another good man to listen to is Fr. Josiah Trenham, even if you are not Orthodox he has great messages for men.
Great talk tonight Dewayne! Thank You sir! ☝️✝️🇺🇸💪
Fear = Reverence in context.
So much love from a young Italian guy for this channel. I come here after watching some of your videos on Dry Creek Wrangler School and this channel just like the other one is a breath of fresh air in a world that is increasingly dirty and corrupt. Dwayne without knowing it you are helping me get through a difficult period in my life and you are making me rediscover faith after years of doubts and unhealthy atheist friendships.
God bless you and the genuine American spirit that I have been looking for for a long time
For some of us we didn’t have an earthly father and it’s not about fear for me it’s ignorance there was no one there to teach me thank you for your kind words always
I’ve studied Marcus Arelious teaching myself how to be a father a man a better person wisdom of the ages I can’t read but there’s plenty of videos right here on the Skagit I’m self-taught forced to be God’s will is his own
I love your videos they've helped me so much and turned my life around to have true Faith. Keep going brother, you're good at this. God bless ❤
This was the best teaching on the fear of God that I've ever seen❗ Thanks, I wish I knew you brother. God bless you🙏
Thank you sir, fear is such a misunderstood term these days, and your reminder is absolutely needed! Some of us can't weep anymore because it hurts too much but that don't mean we don't need too
Yes, thanks Dewayne
it should be respect God, not fear God. It says countless times in the Bible “do not fear” but to respect requires a relationship with God
Fear him in love. I believe he explained this very thing, fear is different from being terrified. Fear in this context is being used as Fear disappointing him. Fear him righteously in love.
I love this! Thanks for sharing. The fear of the lord is the secret to your prayer life, the secret to your financial stability, the secret to the wellness of your mind, and it’s the secret to a happy marriage, and I could go on and on. Nothing is more important in life than fearing the Lord. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man! People do not keep his commandments, because they do not fear God. My whole life changed when I started fearing the Lord, obeying his commandments and reading my bible daily. I'm truly blessed now because of it. ❤
Fearing God is a deep reverence and respect for God. The fear of God is respecting Him, obeying Him, submitting to His discipline, and worshiping Him in awe.
Does it make you a coward?
No. @@DecarloThornton
@@DecarloThorntonNo brother! It’s more cowardly to know the truth and be scared to submit to the creator. Don’t let people of the world take you off the path Of Jesus Christ ✝️
@@DecarloThornton who told you that? Not at all friend. It makes you understand that your creator is over your life and you live accordingly
It's also real fear and not just great respect.
Do your children really *FEAR* you, or do they just ❤ *RESPECT* you, because you're a Man of your word!?!
There's a big difference between the two!
My earthly Father (R.I.P.) was a VERY tall, strong and an intimidating man, but he didn't ever have to lay his hands on me, in order for me to listen to him & respect him!
Church today really don’t teach about fearing God they’re all teaching about loving and accepting everything that comes down the pike in all of peoples delusions and psychosis and that’s what they’re being taught. God is nothing but love and there is no correction . According to the churches today, God won’t strike you down . God won’t Cause anything to happen negative in your life, although the Bible says that I (God) bring calamity,. God doesn’t change. in the Old Testament we are taught that we are to fear God because God is also vengeful and correct you The pastors are not teaching them correctly and it’s on their heads. Sadly, the Bible teaches us that it is on the teachers head if they teach them wrong. 🤷🏻♀️
I greatly appreciate this video. I look forward to others like it. I agree all wisdom comes from God, but I think sometimes it takes a man like you explaining it for a man like me to have it click.
Fear:
Interestingly, the Hebrew word יִרְאַ֣ת or 'yare' = Awe and reverence ♥
I would say, Pride is far more destructive ...
“A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and, of course, as long as you are looking down, you cannot see that which is above you.” C.S. Lewis
My parents disciplined us. But there was a difference in the way each one did it. At that time parents used a swat on the backside. My daddy did. My dad was a hard working man that took his family responsibilities seriously. But what I remember most were the "talks" when I did something I shouldn't have. I would look at his tired, weary face and see the disappointment and sadness at what I had done. So I grew up with a fear of disappointing, disrespecting and dishonoring him. I was looking forward to this topic DeWayne. You did not disappoint. Thank you.
PROVERBS 1:29-33
29 that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:
30 They would none of my counsel:
they despised all my reproof.
31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way,
and be filled with their own devices.
32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them,
and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
33 But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely,
and shall be quiet from fear of evil.
Our only righteousness is Christ. The flesh is dead. God was done with the flesh at the flood. We are alive in Christ. If you are saved by grace through faith, then the Father only sees Christ when he looks at you. Every day we all sin in thought, action and deed. When we were saved God removed our sins as far as the east is from the west. We should reckon the old man dead, and not fall for the deceits of sin. The law declares us guilty but the law is but a school master pointing to Christ. As saints, let us not go back to the law, but look to Christ. Let us not "date Moses", while married to Christ. Let us not call God a liar concerning the testimony of his Son. Sin will take you farther than you want to go, keep you longer than you want to stay, and cost you more than you want to pay. We should fear the principle of sin, but run to Christ. For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
You're at 29k Subscribers.That tells me that you're giving people what they need. God Bless.
Amen brother Dwane, appreciate these messages. Greetings from Cork Ireland.
Again thank you for speaking about our Heavenly Father, and it's great to hear about old school upbringing!!❤
My ex wife told me one time that our girls were afraid or scared of me. Which I told her that was a good thing. Now it wasn't a fear because I was mean or abusive to them but because they knew there was consequences to their actions. And guess what? I never hardly even had to get on em.
Now that we've got the critics set aside, let's get into it, Thankyou Dwyane
Having trouble telling you how much I enjoy these sessions and how glad I am you started this channel--Thx!!
Thank you for posting this. I haven't been fearing God anywhere near enough and this has really helped me to see that
May our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ continue to bless you and your family as well as all and any endeavors you undertake. Stay in His Word and continue to stay on the straight and narrow Way. God bless you.
May the LORD JESUS CHRIST bless you and keep you brother.
Thank you for the way you articulate your understanding. I needed to hear this yesterday. I have not been fearing God. Thanks again.
my friend, god doesn,t favor people.
Thank you Dwayne, I needed to hear this! I'm a long time viewer, drinker of wrangler coffee. I'm a retired police officer, broken down cowboy. I suffer from severe ptsd and your videos help me so much! Thank you so much God bless you and your family
Dear sir thank you for your time this day. I have only subscribed shortly now. You are the first person on UA-cam that when they say we’re going to read this chapter, that I’ve been almost yelled at in the back of my head, “Andy pause this and go get your Bible out right now.” Thank You God for bring this man to my life. Sir you make so much sense. Simple straightforward common sense that Bible study. Amen Jesus.
Thank you again Dewanye, for hitting the nail on the head. With what I was struggling with, when it came to Fearing ABBA. I was lacking the understanding and now I get it. Peace.
Thank you for doing this. I think you're representing a Godly dad that a lot of us (including me) didn't have. My dad pretended to be Godly for a long time and then suddenly switched to showing his true colors all at once and it was traumatic for my whole family. Its a shame because he had that "fearful dad" energy that could have been godly, he made us act right but it wasnt about having Godly kids it was about getting praise from other adults about how well behaved his kids were. Its oddly comforting to listen to someone with that masculine authority who wouldnt cut you down but would also tell you how it is with no sugar coating. I know lots of other people have had worse fathers than mine too. All us children of failed fathers need this.
Dewayne, what books in the Bible should I read as a young man seeking wisdom? I am already reading Proverbs, are there other books such as Proverbs that provide wisdom and advice?
Proverbs is a good start. Psalms and Ecclesiastes are also really strong in that particular area.
Two vidoes in one day what a blessing
We live in a very narcissistic society today that’s why nobody fears God anymore
Thanks for this wisdom today sir it's like how the TV was made for example if you watch the TV and the things you view on the TV their programming you to do wrong instead of right in today's life their making it seem like good is bad and bad is good and this is in the bible we are in the book of revelations for these things will come to pass. But remember this verse Proverbs 11:8
The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead. Meaning seek God and you will be saved from evil and the wicked will be put in your place instead.
Hello Dwayne, I'd like to say I have extreme respect for how adamant you are about only talking about Jesus, such spearheaded faith is needed in this day and age
When I tell you I lived in your cabin in Alaska for 8 years: I mean I surely did. Met you at Jeff's house one night. I've been watching your content for 2 years and only TODAY realized who you are.
If God withdrawal,s his hand off an individual,s life, you will learn the fear of God and what it means real fast!
After I Listened to the message all the way through, I had to pray and ask the LORD to forgive me, and help me to fear Him, help me to seek Him and His Holiness. I am thankful For this message you shared. I needed it.
Thanks for your video's Dewayne, I find them informative and uplifting. ❤ from England
Looking forward to the video about the book of Job. My favorite book in the Bible. Thank you for your wholesome content. Very much needed nowadays.
ThankYou for the wise words, very well said!!
When i was a kid until 12 i asked God ro take my father when i realized he wouldn't i asked him to take me . Sometimes youl hear things like one day you are responsible for who you become. Its true to a point but abuse that is constant and predictable leaves you changed then you rgink God really doeant care it effects your thinking your actions and how you see God . One day youl realize it isnt true and the God you believe in will Show up but you'll never understand
Excellent teaching brother! I am reaching out and learning to FEAR GOD!
God is big, He created the universe, He holds our soul in His hands, to think He can control the elements even when you are in a tornado, You will fear Him, and repent,and turn to His ways, this life determines our eternity forever, and this life is but a Vapor in midst of all time forever, so we should fear God
Hi Dwayne…yes yes yes!!
The pride… the audacity to act on one’s own and doing what one wants to do and not what God wants does come from a lack of fear of God.
Same with a lack of fear of their earthly Father…
I tried to train all our children up in the Lord and homeschooled also but my husband did not have a fear of God at all and today one of my daughters, the one he had wrapped around his finger, has gone and embraced the pride of this modern agenda in our country, devastating us all by her choices and he abandoned me.
Must study the Bible hand in hand with knowledge of the philosophers. Wonder if you are familiar with Robinson Curriculum or Omnibus? Marcus Aurelius was one of the books in Omnibus. I really appreciate those text books so much for studying the Bible and the classics side by side for wisdom and knowledge and fear of the Lord by learning about the rise and fall of men and civilizations.
We need a Charlemagne and King Alfred reformation of learning. Two of my favorites.
I really appreciate your teaching from Tennessee.
I have a question for you Dewayne.
What are your thoughts on the alienation that follows after you choose to follow God in a wicked world? Another thing I experience is that seeing how perfect and holy God is it’s hard to keep myself motivated to live in this evil world. It doesn’t help to come from a place where 99% of the people have replaced God with money.
Thank you for the wisdom you share with us. It’s not often someone makes me think as deep as you do.
I pray for an answer and that the Holy Spirit will continue to talk through you for us who value wisdom more than gold.
sin is the biggest problem because they don't fear God
I found your main channel and enjoyed the heart to heart talks. Can’t lie and say I care too much about horses.
But this is by far the best channel UA-cam has to offer me.
Thank you for doing it.
Praise be to God
You said it that explains everything. Thank you for following what the Lord has impressed upon your heart. You done the will of God, I needed that and so do many many others. Thank you Jesus for your message 🙏
I used to use anger as a tactic to get my kids to behave. I hated the look in their eyes they gave me when I was using anger. I didn't want to see that look and decided to really look at how I discipline. I'm trying to discipline more with love and I've found they obey out of love rather than fear. where is the fine line of kids having the proper fear of me vs being scared? I learned that using anger would get me short term the results I wanted but later lead to greater disconnect in the long run.
The answer lies in the word that you use here. “Anger“. Anger is motion, and I agree anger has no place when it comes to discipline. It has to be simple immutable boundaries. And they have to know that when they cross those boundaries, the discipline is not personal or emotional from you, it is simply the result of them willingly crossing a boundary that has been set. The fear is not a fear of your anger or uncontrolled emotion, it is the fear of a father who does not lie, and who is not a pushover, but who sets things in place for their safety and for their well-being.
@@TackRoomBibleTalk that makes sense. thanks for clarifying. I had a father who used anger and I've had to do a lot of work to unlearn that. Thanks again, your videos really are a great help.
@@CatherineKellerUSA I feel your pain. I'm sorry to hear that. Hope you can have peace moving forward.
Uncle Dwayne, you uploaded this video just in time! As I was at a point in my life where I constantly struggle with lust, I was looking for the wisdom of a grown man and you gave it to me through God Almighty. I'll take your advice sir. My best regards to you and thank you so much!🙏
I find it hard to fear God, not because I think he is weak or not worth fearing, but I know how much he genuinely and truly loves us. Its hard to fear my lord when I know he only has love for me,
There's a healthy kind of fear.
Dwayne in this video brought up the practical examples of a child fearing to disappoint their dads, not an abusive manner where it's to avoid wrath as the end, but a fear of the Lord because you love and respect Him, especially in an act of gratitude realizing you and all mankind wouldn't exist without Him. Realize that we are talking about the God that created objective reality that made us in HIS image.
Our Lord God is a vengeful, jealous God also. If you take his name and then continue to not fear Him, He will rejoice in your destruction just as well as He rejoiced in the day you were found. Fear Him

What is the most important Commandment from the Lord?

@@connorohare229 I am not here to debate anyone, I would say to you to read Jesus' sayings, Jesus answered that very question.
I've heard pastors, my whole life ( I'm pretty old), always say that the fear of the Lord, meaning is a reverence for the Lord. It has always rubbed me the wrong way, because I believe it means real fear of God's judgment, and once you have repented and accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior, then you develop love and reverence.
Thank you, Dwayne. God bless, brother.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Self righteousness can and will lead to not having the fear of God, that's what I experienced along with no wholehearted repentance or tears ,to my own shame ive been very unwise but not anymore praise be to God alone. ( I would strongly recommend listening to this message more than once. )
Glory to God.
