TOPIC : THE TRANSFORMATIONAL FORCE OF HONOR
TEXT : 1 SAMUEL 24 : 1-7
1 And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, Behold, David is in the wilderness of Engedi.
2 Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats.
3 And he came to the sheepcotes by the way, where was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet: and David and his men remained in the sides of the cave.
4 And the men of David said unto him, Behold the day of which the LORD said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into thine hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good unto thee. Then David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul's robe privily.
5 And it came to pass afterward, that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt.
6 And he said unto his men, The LORD forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, the LORD's anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the LORD
7 So David stayed his servants with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way
Honor is what distinguishes the wise from the fool.
Honor is a lifter of destinies.
The grace you honor is the grace you will receive.
It is impossible to honor God, His priests and your parents and fail in this life.
Honor is a ladder that always leads to the top.
Deuteronomy 5 : 16 demands us to honor our father and mother if we intend to live well and long in this world.
16 Honour thy father and thy mother, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
There are many of us that are under curses and we have gone from one mountain to another mountain trying to break the curses.
Not all curses respond to such prayers.
Many are under the attack of serpents for breaking the hedge.
The sin of disobedience is seen as witchcraft by the Lord.
God cannot bless a witch.
The practice of witchcraft is not only when you start flying at night.
Many are resisting the call to honor their God appointed leaders and have ended up in total dishonor.
This shall never be your portion in Jesus mighty name.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not
bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
