Honouring God

Text: Revelation 4:11 (KJV)

Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure, they are and were created.

The truth about life is that God created every one of us with a purpose, but many at times, we fail to understand that, and this leads us to not knowing how to honour God. We end up thinking it is difficult or hard, that God will not accept it, which is a lie from the devil. Certain times, we ask ourselves, how do we honour God that we cannot see ? It is not meant to be so. We are meant to honour God with all that we have, from our bodies, to our dressing, our thoughts, our speeches, etc.; this is because He deserves it. The creator of heaven and earth deserves all of our worship. It says in Colossians1:16- For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him. He truly deserves it, because He is so great and lives forever and ever; He also knows the beginning from the end and vice versa, because He is the beginning and the end, so give Him the honour that He deserves.

Did you know that the bond between God and you, gets stronger as you honour Him? This level of honouring I am talking about is the one done publicly and secretly too. It is not the one done for eye-service, but the sincere one and this should be the one we give to Him. So, I urge you to stop your secret respect and honour only, because one day all people and situations will bow down to the LORDSHIP of our God. The truth is no matter how powerful someone might be (or they think they are), we will all lay our crowns at God’s feet-because there is only one king in heaven that lives and never dies. He alone is worthy of all glory, honour, and praise. Acts 17:24- God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands. We are also meant to give honour to people who deserve it like our parents, both biological and spiritual parents, to the elderly or those in authority, it all counts as an honour to God, but of all God is the top on the list to receive honour and nothing should replace him in our lives. So LOOK ROUND HE IS EVERY WHERE THEREFORE HONOUR HIM IN ALL.

PRAYER POINTS:

1.Oh Lord, help us to honour and respect God with our all at all times, in Jesus name.

2. Father, please whatever has replaced my reverence completely to God, reverse it, in Jesus name.

ACTION QUOTE: Answer this question: do you give public or secret honour to the creator of the whole universe?
