Honor On The Wedding Day and Thereafter
May God grant you honor on your wedding day! May honor attend to you throughout your marriage.
So, what’s the deal with honor?
Whatever it is, doesn’t it sound good?
Let’s look at the Bible.
1Sa 2:30b (KJV) 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.
The scripture is unequivocal in this regard.
God said, “Honor me, and I will honor you; despise me, and I will lightly regard you.”
Let’s look at another translation for clarity.
1Sa 2:30b (GW)
“…I will honor those who honor me, and those who despise me will be considered insignificant.
It indicates that if you do not honor God, you will be deemed insignificant!
That sounds like “ouch!”
The best bet is to just decide to honor God.
So, how do you honor God in your relationship?
Here is one way to do that.
Honour Him in your devotion.
Prioritizing God honors God in your devotion. Do not be careless with your devotion to God. On a daily basis, honor Him in your prayer periods. The key to success is consistency.
Pro 8:17 (KJV)
I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
Let us now look to the Passion Translation:
Pro 8:17 (TPT)
I will show my love to those who passionately love me. For they will search and search continually until they find me.
As you pursue God in your devotion on a daily basis, as The Passion translation states, God will honor you in return.
How do I know?
His word is unbreakable!
I pray for you this morning, that God will honor you. In Jesus’ name, God will see you as significant.
As you honour Him, God will honor you back on your wedding day and throughout your marriage!
