Psalms 2:11
v. 11: We are told to respect and fear God. He is great, holy, and just, so we should serve him with awe. Even kings, who are feared by others, must serve and fear the Lord. We should also rejoice in God, but our joy should be mixed with trembling, because God is glorious and always watching us. Our salvation should be worked out with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12 a). We should be happy about Christ’s kingdom, but also careful not to become proud or careless in our joy. As the Bible says, rejoice as though you rejoiced not (1 Corinthians 7:30 b).
