Languages of Honor

1-Honor is the seed of longevity

Ex. 20:12. Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be prolonged in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. They are the generators of our life on earth. Through them we have our life on earth, just as through the boss we have the job, through the spouse we have marriage, etc. When we honor these generators, we will have longevity in what they provide. If they are parents, longevity in life, if spouse longevity in marriage, if boss longevity at work, etc.

2-Honor has the power of initiation.

Eph. 6: 2. Honor your father and your mother (which is the first commandment with promise), Honor began the commandments with promise.

It is interesting to see that honor precedes new seasons, for example: When the person will start his married life, there is a ceremony of honor that is called marriage.

When a person moves from student life to the life of a professional, there is an honor ceremony called graduation. Honor begins new times.

When we need to start a new time in our relationships, in our finances, in our married life, a good recipe is to look for an opportunity to honor.

3-Honor is a seed that you plant and reap.

4-Honor opens doors.

And the king's young men, his servants, said, There was nothing done unto him. 10 And the king said unto Haman, Make haste, and take the robe and the horse, as thou hast said, and do thus unto the Jew Mordecai, which sitteth at the king's gate; and do not let anything fall from what you have said. 11 And Haman took the robe and the horse, and put on Mordecai, and carried him on the horse of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done to the man of whose honor the king is well pleased.

Now present it to your governor; will he have pleasure in thee, and will he be unto thee? Saith the LORD of hosts.
