TOPIC: HONOURING ALL MEN: Your Spouse (4)
One Year Bible Reading:
Leviticus 26 - 27
Mark 7: 1 - 23
MEMORY VERSE:
1 Peter 2:17
"17. Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king."
BIBLE READING:
Hebrews 13:4 (NLT)
"4. Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage..."
Thinking Point:
Marriage is a vacuum to be filled with Honour by the couple.
The most high God will Baptist us with honour and crown us with glory before this month ends in Jesus' mighty name, Amen.
With our focus this week which is Honouring All Men, we have established those to honour in our lifetime starting from Honouring God, Honouring our Parents and Honouring our guardian. Today, we shift to the fourth person to be honoured which is our spouse, yes, our partner. Many couples were unable to trace the source of the challenges in their marriage to lack of honour. Lack of honour between couples leads to broken homes. I am not saying one way honour but two ways. The husband is to honour his wife and the wife is to honour her husband. Most times we say the woman needs to be cared for, then who cares for the men? When you don't honour your spouse they may be honoured somewhere else by someone desperate for them. What you honour you don't joke with. The truth is this, everybody wants to be honoured but not everyone wants to honour others. The secret of a happy home is honour being practiced both ways. Many couples honour their spiritual father or mother more than their spouse. Some go the extra mile to do their home core but dishonour their spouse daily at home. I'm not saying don't honour your spiritual father but let it begin from your spouse, honour what's yours before honouring someone else. You claim to honour your In-laws but you don't honour your spouse. We honour our bosses in our place of work but dishonour our spouse at home. We respect and use our resources to please others but our spouse can't touch what is ours, that is eye service not honour, self pleasers not service.
Apostle Paul speaking to couples saying,
"33. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband. Ephesians 5:33.
This is honour, to love and to revere one another is a way to honour each other. Hebrew 13:4 says, Marriage is honourable, not the thing called marriage but those who make up the marriage, the husband and wife need to live honourably in order to enjoy God's blessings upon their family. When one party cheats on the other it's no more honourable. When one party finds succour outside his/her marriage the honour has been replaced with dishonour. When unity is lacking, when nagging, quarreling, abusive words are part of your marriage the marriage has been desecrated, no more honour. When you can't shield your spouse outside but naked his/her wickedness, no more honour is such marriage. Respect is honour. Love is honour. Patience and forgiveness are honour that builds a blissful home. Selflessness is an honour between couples. When you don't honour your spouse others will dishonour them and you will be dishonoured too. Finance is another tool that dishonours marriages. When your honour is tempered with during a financial crisis that honour isn't genuine. Honouring your spouse is a way to attract peace into our homes and make an honourable marriage.
God Bless you and Good Morning.
