Honor Others and God Will Honor You

HONOR OTHERS AND GOD WILL HONOR YOU

📖 Love one another with brotherly love, honoring and respecting one another. (Romans 12:10)

This biblical principle is powerful: love your neighbor. More than words, loving others requires attitude. Serving others requires humility and understanding the Word. Jesus — who is King — came into the world and served everyone. Who are we to demand honor?

When we become concerned with receiving honor, we contaminate our service. Help others gladly, expect no reward, and God will surprise you. When we serve our brothers and sisters, obey our parents, or carry out a task at work, we should do it as if we were doing it for God. Only God can repay honor with justice and grace.

When we take this position, we open the doors for God to move in our lives. We love and receive love from above. That true love motivates us to love and serve more and more. Even when we are not recognized or are humiliated, God will exalt us at the right time. Believe it, for all glory and honor come from Him and belong to Him.

Practicing Honor

• Do not be driven by personal interests. Without realizing it, we can push away the people we love because of our own goals.

• Place God and His Kingdom as your primary objective. In this way, everyone will be included in your plans.

• Look at the example of Jesus. In the Gospels, see how He served and how He loved everyone.

To pray: Lord, thank You for Your care over my life. I want to honor Your name and serve others with joy and truth. Create in me a willing heart to help. In Jesus’ name, amen. 🙏
