I recently preached a message called “Holiness and the Fear of the Lord.”
Holiness may not be a popular message today, but it is an important one. God has always required holiness from His people. This was true under the Old Covenant and it is just as true under the New Covenant. God’s grace does not remove the requirement of holiness, it empowers us to obtain it!
Holiness means to be set apart to God. Yes, it is about moral purity; but at its heart, holiness is about devotion to God Himself. Holiness is not just about saying “no” to sin, it is about saying “yes” to God. Without holiness and the fear of the Lord, we will not get to where God wants to take us as a church!

Great preaching. Thank you for spending the time to invest in our lives by posting this much needed message on holyness. I’m going to have mitral valve replaced this month and wanted to do a study on fearing the Lord and holiness. Your message was straight from the throne room today for me and I will be passing it on to others who need to hear. Your congregation is truly blessed to have you as their pastor who listens and preaches what God says. I was truly ministered to today. God bless you and your family.
