Ecclesiastes 7:16-18

Do not be overrighteous,
neither be overwise—
why destroy yourself? Do not be overwicked,
and do not be a fool—
why die before your time? It is good to grasp the one
and not let go of the other.
Whoever fears God will avoid all extremes. (Ecclesiastes 7:16-18 NIV)

Luke 8:25

And He said to them, [Why are you so fearful?] Where is your
                faith (your trust, your confidence in Me--in My veracity and My integrity)? And they
                were seized with alarm  and  profound  and  reverent dread, and they marveled, saying to one another, Who then is
                this, that He commands even wind and sea, and they obey Him? (Luke 8:25 AMP)

1 John 1:8-10

If we say we have no sin [refusing to admit that we are
                sinners], we delude  and  lead ourselves astray, and the Truth
                [which the Gospel presents] is not in us [does not dwell in our hearts].  If we [freely] admit that we have sinned  and  confess our sins, He is faithful and just (true to His own nature and
                promises) and will forgive our sins [dismiss our lawlessness] and [continuously]
                cleanse us from all unrighteousness [everything not in conformity to His will in
                purpose, thought, and action].  If we say (claim) we have not sinned, we contradict His Word and  make Him out to be false  and  a  liar, and His Word is not in us [the divine message of the Gospel is not in our hearts]. (1 John 1:8-10 AMP)

Psalm 147:11

The Lord takes pleasure in those who reverently  and  worshipfully fear Him, in those who hope in His mercy  and  loving-kindness. (AMP)

Psalm 51:17

My sacrifice [the sacrifice acceptable] to God is a broken
                spirit; a broken and a contrite heart [broken down with sorrow for sin and humbly
                and thoroughly penitent], such, O God, You will not despise. (AMP)
