Yes, the Lord is great! Everyone should praise him as he deserves. People should respect him with fear, more than all other gods. Psalm 96:4

Fear here is best heard as awe and holy respect, not simple fright. It’s the posture of recognizing God’s otherness, power, and moral authority, an emotional and moral response that mixes wonder, humility, and obedience. In this sense, fear is the natural human reaction when we truly perceive greatness that is wholly good and wholly beyond us. Pause for a minute: breathe slowly, name one attribute of God that fills you with wonder, and let that wonder turn into a single sentence of praise. Let that sentence shape one small choice you make today.
