2021 TEENS VOLUME RHAPSODY OF REALITIES MESSAGE.
“Why do you all get up from your chairs whenever the Pastor walks in? I feel like you worship him.” Lola, one of the new converts, queried.
“No, we don’t,” Lauren answered with a kind smile. “However, he serves and represents Jesus; he deserves all the honour we can accord him.”
Some people get offended when we do things in the wisdom of God to honour God’s ministers, for instance, standing up in honour and reverence when a minister of God walks in. However, there’re truths in the Word of God for us to discover and apply in our personal lives; otherwise, you’ll never walk in the blessings they bring.
MFM DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR SATURDAY 7TH AUGUST 2021
One of them is honouring those whom God has set above you and are responsible for your spiritual growth. Understand that the respect you accord your pastor or leader is why his words, message, and blessings that he gives stay with you. Also, when you honour a man of God, you aren’t doing it for a man, but for the Lord. Jesus said in Matthew 10:40-41, “He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me. He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward. And he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward.”
If the people of the world would stand up in honour when the president of their nation, whom they voted into office, walks in, how much more a man sent by God? Unlike political leaders, God’s ministers have the mandate to strengthen, inspire and edify God’s people in the Word, and for that reason deserve greater honour.
DAILY FOUNTAIN DEVOTIONAL FOR 7TH AUGUST 2021
1 Timothy 5:17 tells us that those who teach us God’s Word are worthy of double praise and recognition. If you love Jesus, you’ll love those He sends. Don’t join scoffers to malign or resent ministers of God sent to bless and nurture you in the Word.
