The fear of the Lord is a deep and reverential sense of accountability to God or the Lord Jesus Christ. Many in the Body of Christ have preached this as reverence and honor for God not be afraid of God, which is true. It is a deep respect honor to the creator of all things, and yes God does not want you to be afraid of Him to where you run from Him instead of running to Him when you mess up. But there is a terror, a stand at attention feeling or a whoa factor, a healthy fear that makes you humble yourself and bow down to Him in honor and worship because He is Holy.
