There are many examples of the Bible saying that wisdom and knowledge come from fear of God or fear of the Lord. One example is
Proverbs 1:7 (NIV)
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,,but fools despise wisdom and instruction.,
If we want a right view of the world, life, science, history, relationships, etc., we need to have a healthy fear of the Lord and respect for his word, the Bible.
Last night I was reading "The Created Cosmos" by Danny R. Faulkner. At the end it has an appendix article by Lee Anderson, Called "Scripture as the Controlling Factor in Christian Worldview Development". This particular statement stood out to me.
"This 'fear' involves an awe-filled reverence toward God in view of a knowledge of who God is and what He has done which, in turn, produces a dependence upon God's revelation in navigating the path of life."
God's word should be the foundation upon which all of our beliefs, words, and actions rest.
