“Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with promise: “that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.”
Ephesians 6:2-3 NKJV
Praise, glory and honour be unto God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.
Honour thy Father and Mother so that you can tap into the blessings God has in stock for you. This scripture has its roots in Exodus 20:12 where God gave the 10 commandments to Moses.
Let’s give reverence and be respectful to our fathers and mothers as the scripture urges us. Let’s keep esteeming them and holding them in the highest honour we can so the Word of God will be fulfilled in our lives.
The verse 3 of this chapter adds that after honouring our parents, we receive God’s blessings and long life too. That it will be well with us and live long here on earth.
May the Lord bless us mightily on all fronts as we honour both our physical and spiritual Fathers and Mothers. May we enjoy greater grace and the blessings of longevity that come from honouring our parents. Amen.
