Fear of the Lord First

Proverbs 1:7 "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge;
Fools despise wisdom and instruction."

Proverbs 1:26-28 "…26 I will also laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your dread comes, 27 When your dread comes like a storm And your calamity comes like a whirlwind, When distress and anguish come upon you. 28"Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently but they will not find me,"

Isaiah 5:3-5 "…3"And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah, Judge between Me and My vineyard. 4 "What more was there to do for My vineyard that I have not done in it? Why, when I expected it to produce good grapes did it produce worthless ones? 5 "So now let Me tell you what I am going to do to My vineyard: I will remove its hedge and it will be consumed; I will break down its wall and it will become trampled ground.…"

Amos 3:6 "If a trumpet is blown in a city will not the people tremble? If a calamity occurs in a city has not the Lord done it?"

Yes, God brings calamity on people when they are stubborn.
