In the first installment of the new series “Yare Ka” (Fear of the Lord), Ps. Rafy Panlilio unpacks what it truly means to live with reverence before God.“Yare” in Hebrew means to fear, to revere, while in Filipino, yare means “in trouble”—capturing both the awe and accountability that come with following the Lord.From Proverbs 3:7, we learn that fearing God is not about guilt, shame, or human fear. Instead, it is the recognition of who God is—holy, just, all-knowing, and ever-present. The fear of the Lord compels us to turn away from evil, acknowledge that we are accountable to Him, and rely on Christ who empowers us to live free from the power of sin.“We fear God for the same reasons that we praise Him—because of who He is and what He does.” – Ps.
