Reverence is defined as deep respect, or is a name given to a holy figure in a religious institution. An example ofreverence is when you show deep and complete respect for the Bible as the word of God. The respectful term used to address a priest is an example ofreverence: Your Reverence..
Another important word used in the definition of the word awe is reverence. This word means fear mingled with respect and esteem. No matter how you try, you can't separate the idea of fear from the words awe and awesome. Our awesome God is seen in striking manner in Isaiah chapter six.
