Continuation…
The bible says, Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the LORD your God is giving you [Exodus 20:12]. Honour is what is going to preserve and to protect you in the land.
When we look at John 17, you realize that it’s the Father who glorifies us. He is the One who gives us power. He is the One who gives us work to do. If you say, you have no job, He will give you work, and remember, He blesses the work of your hands [Deuteronomy 28:12]. The Father is the One who empowers you with the Holy Spirit. He is the One who rewards those who diligently seek Him as revealed by Jesus. When you are done with your assignment, the Father rewards you. Your Father is rich, fat, huge and not thin. Whenever you’re going through tough times, pray, “Holy Father, My Father.” Jesus is in the Father and if we are in Jesus, we are in the Father.
In order to be a good father and husband, you must know Jesus. God said, if you love my Son (Jesus), I will love you. If you love the words of Jesus, the Father in heaven will love you. Beloved, God loves us the same way He loves his son Jesus. Apostle Paul said, Follow me as I follow Christ [1 Corinthians 11:1 MEV]. When you love Jesus, automatically the Father will love you. Jesus said, Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world [John 17:24]. Jesus is at the right hand of the Father. I declare, you’re a child of God and because you love Jesus, favour is coming on you.
To be a father is a command just like a blessing, and God is the one who commands the blessing. Your Father is the one who commands the blessing. Deuteronomy 28:8 reads, The LORD will command the blessing on you in your storehouses and in all to which you set your hand, and He will bless you in the land which the LORD your God is giving you. God told Abraham to get out of his father’s house and He will show him another land. You can’t run things just like your father. If you are to grow from glory to glory, you must get out of your father’s house [Genesis 12:1].
As I conclude this text: I cannot be your father if you don’t listen to what I say. Apostle Paul says in 1 Corinthians 4:15, For though you might have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet [you do] not [have] many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.
Friends, I trust this series on Honour has blessed you. Remember that once you honour God, He will honour you.
