La Protección Divina y Temor de Dios / Divine Protecion and The Fear of the Lord


 "El ángel de Dios acampa alrededor de los que le temen,
Y los defiende." Salmos 34:7

Que alentador es este verso. No solo nos dice que el ángel de Dios esta a nuestro lado, sino que nos DEFIENDE! Que bueno es saber que Dios esta con nosotros y que nos ayuda.
¿Pero sabemos que quiere decir "El Temor a Dios Padre"?
El temer a Dios, no es el miedo común que sentimos en el día a día. No es la clase de miedo que nos da cuando le tememos a la altura, o a algo en particular. El temor de Dios, es tratar de que todos nuestros actos sean de bien y que le agraden a Dios. Una persona en juicio normal sabe dentro de su corazón o mente cuando algo es bien o mal. Para un creyente el temor es reverencia a Dios. Pero cuando tenemos dudas no tendremos que ir lejos o buscar a nadie en particular, porque todo lo que debemos saber se encuentra en la Biblia. La Biblia declara, “El principio de la sabiduría es el temor de Jehová...” Proverbios 1:7. Cuando uno sabe que es lo que le agrada a Dios, uno tiene temor de hacer lo que no es correcto, por lo cual nuestra sabiduría se ira aumentando. Es increíble pero cierto, hay cosas que yo pensaba que eran correctas, o que no tenían nada de malo, pero al leer la palabra aprendí que hay costumbres hechas por hombres que no le agradan a Dios. Si nos ponemos a ver todas las cosas que hacemos a diario, y nos preguntamos: ¿Esto me acerca o me aleja más de Dios? Veremos que muchas cosas no son necesarias o correctas. Olvídate de los ojos de los demás, haz lo que a los ojos de nuestro Dios le agrade porque Él si que conoce tu corazón y sabe lo que está en tu mente. ¡Los que le temen, tendrán quien lo acompañe y defienda siempre! No lo digo yo sino la Biblia.

"El ángel de Dios acampa alrededor de los que le temen,
Y los defiende." Salmos 34:7
Sabiendo esto, ¿porqué no hacer un compromiso con Dios? Un compromiso de vivir en santidad, un pacto de querer ser agradable a Él, con manos limpias y corazón puro! De ser así tendremos un defensor divino a nuestro lado.

The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them. Psalm 34:7
How encouraging is this verse. It not only tells us that the Angel of God is on our side, but that he advocates for us! How great it is to know that God is with us and help us. But do we know what is meant by "fear the Lord"? To fear God, is not the common fear we feel on a daily basis. It isn't the fear you feel when you are afraid of heights or fear something in particular. To fear God, is to try hard to make sure all of our actions are good and that they please God. Any person in their right mind will know within his heart or mind when something is good or bad. For a believer fear of God is awe. When we have doubts we do not have to go far or find anyone in particular, because everything that we need to know is in the Bible. The Bible declares, "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge." Proverbs 1: 7. When one has knowledge of what pleases God, one has fear of doing what is not correct, by that our wisdom is increases. It's unbelievable but true, there were many things that I thought were correct or that there was nothing wrong by doing them, but by reading the Bible I learned that they were all customs made by men and disliked by God. What if we start to question all the things we do on a daily basis, is this bringing me closer to or further away from God? We will see that many things are not necessary or correct. Forget the eyes of the others, make, do and live at the grace of God's eyes. He knows what is in your heart and in your mind. For those who fear him, they will have an angel accompanying and defending them always! I do not say this, but the Bible does.
"The Angel of Lord encamps around of those who fear him, and defends them." Psalms 34: 7.
Knowing this, why not make a commitment to God? Let's make a pact with God, to live in Holiness, to walk in his grace, with clean hands and a pure heart! If so we will have a divine defender beside us always.
