Honor we have 32 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: something to. Give if you see someone doing a good, 33 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: job honor them by telling them what a great job they're. 34 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: Doing recognize their, accomplishments give them credit in front of their. 35 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: Colleagues that's Bringing you're not just doing them a, Favor 36 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: you're doing yourself a. Favor when you show, honor there 37 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: is a commanded blessing that is released back into your own. 38 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: Life someone comes to the grocery line at the same 39 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 1: time as you honor them by letting them go, first 40 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: prefer one. Another a simple way to show. Honor honor 41 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: those in authority by doing what they. Ask honor the 42 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: police officer by taking the detour and not. Complaining honor 43 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: the usher by sitting where he asks and not, arguing, 44 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: WELL i shouldn't have to sit in this. Section i'm 45 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 1: going to give him a piece of my. Mind now 46 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: that's the reason you don't have many pieces. Left show 47 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 1: honor by respecting his. Position you may not agree with the, 48 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: policy but because you're a person of, honor you respect 49 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: the authority and do it. Anyway i've found the amount 50 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: of honor that you you show will be directly related 51 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: to the amount Of god's favor that you. See if 52 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: you are stingy with your honor and you THINK i 53 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: can't give them, credit they'll look better than, me then 54 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,679 Speaker 1: you won't See god's favor like you. Should but when 55 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: you're generous with your honor and you're always giving people, 56 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:23,359 Speaker 1: credit treating them with, respect Then god will be generous 57 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: with his favor back to. You if you want to 58 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: see more Of god's goodness than show honor in a greater. 59 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: Way one Time jesus was at a house about to have. 60 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: Dinner this woman came in that was a notorious sinner 61 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: and knelt, down and she poured this expensive bottle of 62 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: oil on his feet and begin to wash. Them oil 63 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: in the scripture represents. Honor you could say she poured 64 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: her honor on. Him the religious leaders got. Upset they, 65 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: said why did she waste the? Oil we could have 66 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: sold it and given the money to The jesus, said 67 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: don't bother the. Woman she has done the best. Thing 68 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: anytime you show, Honor god is saying you are doing 69 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: the best. Thing jesus looked at her and, said, woman 70 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: your sins are. Forgiven notice she gave honor and she received. 71 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: Favor when you pour out that oil of, honor it 72 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: becomes the blessing that is returned back to. You but 73 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: with no, oil with no, honor no, blessing you will 74 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: never receive what you're not willing to. Give if you 75 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 1: don't give, honor you won't have. Honor some of you 76 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: could go to a new. Level you could see a 77 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: breakthrough and what you've been praying, about if you would 78 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: just start honoring the People god put in your life 79 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: in a greater. Way in the, scripture it talks about 80 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: How jesus couldn't do any miracles in his hometown because 81 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: of their. Unbelief they thought there's nothing special About. Jesus 82 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: we grew up with. HIM i taught him third. Grade 83 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: he's just like my other. STUDENTS i played little league with. 84 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: Him he wasn't any different than the rest of. Us 85 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: it was a lack of honor that kept him from 86 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 1: doing any. Miracles in, Fact jesus went on to, say 87 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: a prophet has no honor in his own. Home the 88 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 1: same principle is true. Today where there's no, honor there 89 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: will be no, miracles no, honor no, healing no, honor no. 90 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: Promotion god's power is directly linked to showing. Honor paul 91 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 1: said In ephesian, six honor your father and mother so 92 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: that all will be well with.

You that's What god's. Promised this says 98 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: honor should start in our. Homes it should start in 99 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 1: our own families with those closest to. US i know 100 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: people that treat complete strangers better than they treat their own. 101 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: Spouse it should be just the. Opposite we should treat 102 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: our own family with more honor than anyone.

Naysayers 126 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: our families should be a place of respect and admiration 127 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: where we don't focus on all the petty. Differences we 128 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: don't let pride cause us to compete and, compare try 129 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: to figure out who's the most, important AND i can't complement, 130 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: them OR i may look.

Along where there's respect and, admiration there's a, 139 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: team there's, enthusiasm there's. Motivation why is that when you 140 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 1: pour out the oil of, honor it will come back 141 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 1: to you As god's blessings and. Favor you may be 142 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 1: around people that are, dishonorable people that are hard to, 143 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 1: love hard to. Respect sometimes you have to honor people by. 144 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: Faith you have to treat people not the way they, 145 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: are but the way you want them to. Become when 146 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 1: you honor someone that's, dishonorable you give someone respect that 147 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: doesn't really deserve. Respect when you're, kind even though they're not, 148 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: kind you are so in a seed for them to 149 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: become the way you're treating. Them but our mind will 150 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: always tell us be disrespectful back to. Them they didn't 151 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: give you the time of. Day just blow them. Off 152 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: they talk bad about, you talk bad about. Them, no 153 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: you never change a dishonorable situation by piling on more. 154 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: Dishonor that's only going to make matters. Worse you have 155 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 1: to do just the opposite and bring honor to that. 156 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,079 Speaker 1: Situation treat the person the way you want them to. 157 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: Become it's like a quirk at the bottom of a 158 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: bucket with no water in.
