Trembling in God’s Sanctification


Do we tremble in humility before a holy God when we read and try to live out His word? We are to flesh out the salvation freely given by grace - that is our responsibility, but also a response of love for being bought at such a price!

Philippians 2:12-13 (NKJV)
12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; 13 for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.
-- τρόμος tromos; from 5141; trembling, quaking

Isaiah 66:2 - tremble at His word with broken and humble heart
-- hared; from 2729; fearful; also reverential:— afraid, trembling.
