FEAR 1 Samuel 12:24

"But be sure to fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you."

But be sure to fear the LORD
Deuteronomy 6:1-2 These are the commands, decrees and laws the LORD your God directed me to teach you to observe in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess, so that you, your children and their children after them may fear the LORD your God as long as you live by keeping all his decrees and commands that I give you, and so that you may enjoy long life.
Ecclesiastes 12:13 Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind.

and serve him faithfully with all your heart
Deuteronomy 6:5 Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.
Joshua 24:14 "Now fear the LORD and serve him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt, and serve the LORD."

consider
Job 34:27 "Without inquiry he shatters the mighty and sets up others in their place."
Isaiah 5:12 They have harps and lyres at their banquets, pipes and timbrels and wine, but they have no regard for the deeds of the LORD, no respect for the work of his hands.
Isaiah 22:11 You built a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the Old Pool, but you did not look to the One who made it, or have regard for the One who planned it long ago.
Isaiah 26:10 But when grace is shown to the wicked, they do not learn righteousness; even in a land of uprightness they go on doing evil and do not regard the majesty of the LORD.

what great things he has done for you
Deuteronomy 10:20-22 Fear the LORD your God and serve him. Hold fast to him and take your oaths in his name. He is the one you praise; he is your God, who preformed for you those great and awesome wonders you saw with your own eyes. Your ancestors who went down to Egypt were seventy in all, and now the LORD your God has made you as numerous as the stars in the sky.
