The Year Of Boldness | Pastor Eric Upton | What does it REALLY mean to fear God?

This week at Kingdom Culture, Pastor Eric continues our "The Year of Boldness" series with a message titled "What does it really mean to fear God?"In this message we learn that true fear of God is not about terror, but about a total heart surrender that replaces hypocrisy with authentic intimacy and boldness. This transformation shifts a believer from seeking the approval of men to living in the manifest glory of God, where spiritual apathy and rebellion are traded for acceptable worship and generational confidence. This week's scripture we go over:Acts 5:1-11 ESVBut a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of propertyand with his wife’s knowledge he kept back for himself some of the proceeds and brought only a part of it and laid it at the apostles’ feet.But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land?While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? Why is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to man but to God.”When Ananias heard these words, he fell down and breathed his last. And great fear came upon all who heard of it.The young men rose and wrapped him up and carried him out and buried him.After an interval of about three hours his wife came in, not knowing what had happened.And Peter said to her, “Tell me whether you sold the land for so much.” And she said, “Yes, for so much.”But Peter said to her, “How is it that you have agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out.”Immediately she fell down at his feet and breathed her last. When the young men came in they found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.And great fear came upon the whole church and upon all who heard of these things.🔥 Take Your Next Step:📖 Sermon Notes: CLICK HERE💬 Receive the Sermon Notes:Text BOLDNESS to 94000🙏 Support the Mission – Kingdom Culture PhoenixText GIVEKC to 94000🤝 Start Your Journey – KC ConnectText KCCONNECT to 94000About Kingdom Culture PhoenixKingdom Culture Phoenix exists to disciple people to know and follow Jesus in Word and Spirit.For more information, visit:https://www.kingdomculturephx.com
