MFM DAILY DEVOTIONAL 7 APRIL 2025 MESSAGE
The Oxford dictionary says that honour means “to regard someone with great respect or high esteem.” The word honour means “to esteem and value as precious.” To honour someone is to value him or her highly, to bestow value on him or her. Without complete and genuine honour to your parents, it will be impossible to honour anyone else.
The fifth commandment states, “Honour thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee” (Exodus 20:12). The relationship with your parents is so significant that it is the first earthly relationship addressed in the commandments and it is the only one that comes with a blessing from God.
So, anytime you are not obeying your parents, or not giving them honour, it means you are displeasing the Lord. If you want to please the Lord, you must honour your parents.
You can find a good example in the Bible – our Lord Jesus Christ. You will discover that Jesus honoured His earthly parents even though they were not perfect. In Luke 2:41-51, you see that Jesus followed His parents to Jerusalem to worship, but when they were going back, Jesus stayed behind and was listening to the scribes.
The parents assumed that He must be part of the company on the journey, and they had gone a day’s journey before they discovered that Jesus was not with them. They turned back and looked for Jesus for three days before they found Him in the temple. They said, “Son, why did you treat us like this?” He replied, “Don’t you know that I should be about my Father’s business?”He got up and followed them and was subject to them. That is Jesus Christ. This shows you the importance of honouring your parents.
