Charlie Kirk exemplified what it truly means to have “No Earthly Fears” because of his “Reverent Fear of God.”
Scripture seems to present two opposing views of fear – ‘Fear of the Lord’ – and ‘Fear not.’
Yet both are true and divinely connected. ‘Fear of the Lord’ is holy awe – and ‘Fear Not’ is freedom from fear of this world. Welcome to ThereYouAreJesus.com!
In God’s Kingdom, reverent fear expels every lesser fear. The same word, Fear, has different meanings depending on the context in which it is used.
The Bible contains 66 Books, and the word Fear appears multiple times. You can find what seem to be contradictory statements – even in the very same Book. Take Isaiah for example:
**Isaiah 41:10** says, “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
**Isaiah 11:1-3** says, “A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit. The Spirit of The Lord will rest on him, the Spirit of Wisdom and of Understanding, the Spirit of Counsel and of Might, the Spirit of Knowledge and the Spirit of Fear of the Lord, and he will *Delight* in the Fear of the Lord.
Isaiah’s “Fear of the Lord” is one of the Seven Spirits of God – meaning this Spirit is holy, reverent, and life-giving.
Compare Isaiah’s meaning with the Apostle Paul’s meaning in 2 Timothy, which is a personal letter from Paul to his protégé, Timothy, encouraging Timothy to remain faithful and courageous in ministry for Jesus – telling him in **2 Timothy 1:7** that “God has not given us a spirit of fear of this world” – instead – what God has given us “is power, love, a sound mind, and the reverent fear of God to drive out the anxious fears of man.”
Charlie Kirk understood that true courage is born from reverence. His holy fear of God made him fearless before humans. And now, having finished his race, Charlie stands in the presence of the One he Feared and Loved the most, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
While on earth, Charlie told people “I want to be remembered for courage of my faith. That would be the most important thing. The most important thing is my faith.”

We welcome you to join this growing movement to Restore the Seven Spirits of God back into mainstream Christianity. It starts by telling people about them, and by contacting me directly for Teaching Materials to Help Churches explain the complexity and depth of the “seven-fold manifestation of God’s Holy Spirit.” My personal email is john@thereyouareJesus.com.
You have already been given the ability to help restore God’s Seven Spirits. your ability is documented in the Bible’s Book of John, chapter 20, verse 21, where Jesus says:
“Just as the Father has sent Me, I also send You.”
Thank you so much! I pray for God The Father, Son, & Holy Spirit to take care of you and your loved-ones, always and forever, amen.

I am George’s Messenger for the Seven Spirits of God’s Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ.
These are the Seven Spirits of God:
1. The Spirit of The Lord
Isaiah begins with “the Spirit of the Lord” (Isaiah 11:2). This is not merely one among seven — it is the central flame, the Spirit of Christ Himself – the main trunk for the other branches, the main vine. The Spirit of the Lord is the person and presence of Jesus, the true Son of God, our Lord and Savior. For believers, this means the Spirit does not merely give gifts — He gives Himself. The Christian life begins and ends in Christ.
2. The Spirit of Wisdom
James 1:5 promises wisdom from God to all who ask. Paul prays believers will receive “the Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation” (Ephesians 1:17). Wisdom is not cleverness but divine perspective, not intellectual, but divine insight – the ability to see as God sees. Wisdom teaches the Church how to discern God’s will in a confused world. It transforms chaos into clarity.
3. The Spirit of Understanding
Proverbs 2:6 — “The Lord gives Wisdom; from His mouth come Knowledge and Understanding.” Understanding is the Spirit’s gift to grasp the meaning of God’s Word and His ways. It allows believers not only to hear scripture but to comprehend its living truth for their daily lives.
4. The Spirit of Counsel
Psalm 16:7 — “I will bless the Lord who gives me Counsel.” Jesus calls the Spirit the Parakletos (Helper, Advocate, Counselor) in John 14:26. Counsel is divine guidance for decisions, equipping the believer to walk faithfully. The Spirit of Counsel directs the Church in righteousness when human wisdom falters.
5. The Spirit of Might
Micah 3:8 — “But as for me, I am filled with power, with the Spirit of the Lord, and with justice and Might.” Might is the Spirit’s strength, empowering believers to overcome weakness, opposition, and ‘earthly’ fear which is not the same as Reverent Fear of The Lord. This Spirit emboldens the Church for courageous witness and endurance in trial.
6. The Spirit of Knowledge
Hosea 4:6 warns: “My people are destroyed for lack of Knowledge.” Paul speaks of the Spirit searching even the deep things of God (1 Corinthians 2:10), such as understanding the Seven Spirits of God. Knowledge here is not factual accumulation, but relational knowing of God. The Spirit of Knowledge opens the eyes of believers to truth, guarding against deception.
7. The Spirit of the Fear of the Lord
Proverbs 9:10 — “The Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” Isaiah himself concludes with this Spirit, emphasizing its weight. Fear of the Lord is reverence, awe, and holy humility – not terror – but the recognition of God’s majesty and of our Reverent Fear of our Lord Jesus. This Spirit roots believers in obedience while keeping the Church from pride.
