What does the Bible say about trembling before God?

Answered in 1 source

Trembling before God signifies recognition of His holiness and authority, as seen in Felix's reaction to Paul's preaching.

In Acts 24:25, Felix trembled as Paul reasoned about righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come. This response illustrates the natural reaction of a sinner confronted with divine truth. The fear of God is a profound acknowledgment of His supremacy and righteousness, as described in Hebrews 11, where the faithful like Abraham endured challenges by seeing Him who is invisible. Trembling can also reflect a heart aware of its guilt and the impending judgment, leading one to consider repentance and faith in Christ. It serves as a call to all individuals to reflect on their standing before God.
Scripture References: Acts 24:25, Hebrews 11
