We Honor You~ by C D Swanson
Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed [that] thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed. 1 Samuel 2:30 –

Honor our Father! He will always make a way for His children. He is so worthy of our honor and praise. He is ever faithful and always keeps His promises to those who meet the conditions attached to His promises, as stipulated throughout His word. I have made a covenant with My chosen, I have sworn unto David My servant. (Psalm 89:3)

There is no one who can compare to our Father, and that is why He deserves our honor every single day of our lives. His unblemished character is central of His purity and boundless love. He is the Great “I AM I AM” and the only One that will never let us down. He is on the throne and in control, His mercy unrelenting and uncompromised and His arms are ever outstretched to us. Justice and judgment are the habitation of Thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before Thy face.(Psalm 89:14)

God always takes care of His children. Talk with Him, go to Him for all things, big and small. He hears us, and He always takes care of business. His infinite wisdom lends itself to our reasoning and guidance when we consult and honor Him. It won’t make any difference who you are. God doesn’t show favoritism to His children. God is always just and fair…His light brilliant and pristine.

Merely watching the news today can bring about anxiety for so many. Everyone seems to be like Chicken Little waiting for the sky to fall. Don’t be shaken by the turn of events…because we are on the ROCK. Fear doesn’t and shouldn’t drive those of strong faith, because in perfect love there is NO FEAR. God didn’t create a spirit of fear, but one of power, and love and strong mind.( 2 Timothy 1:7)

To glorify is to honor. Our father is to be honored and admired. How do we honor our Father? We honor our Father by our actions and service to Him today…right now and always.
******
Honor God by bearing your fruit. Honor God by being a witness for His glory. Honor God in all that you do. Honor God by lifting His name on high. Honor God by exalting His awesome ways. The rewards and the love in which your Father will reciprocate are beyond description. We can’t outgive, or love deeper than that of Our heavenly Father. Open your hearts love and honor Him, your life will be changed forever, and that is a promise you can count on…
