Honor God
"Those who honor Me I will honor."
~ Samuel 2:30
"Do I make the honor of God the great object of my life and the rule of my conduct? If so, He will honor me. I may not receive honor from man, but God will Himself put honor upon me.
Eli did not honor the Lord by ruling his household well, and his sons had not honored the Lord by their behavior. Therefore the Lord did not honor them, but took the high priesthood out of their family and made young Samuel to be ruler instead of any of their line.
If I would have my family ennobled, I must honor the Lord in all things. God may allow the wicked to win worldly honors, but the dignity, glory and honor which He Himself gives, He reserves for those who take care to honor Him.
Let me think what I can do this day to honor the Lord, since He will honor me." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)

PLEASE PRAY THIS PRAYER WITH ME THIS MORNING. OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN, HALLOWED BE THY NAME. THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE ON EARTH, AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD. FORGIVE US OF ALL OUR SINS, OUR DEBTS, AND OUR TRESPASSES AGAINST YOU AND MAN. AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO ARE INDEBTED TO US, AND THOSE WHO HAVE TRESPASSED AGAINST US. AND LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION, BUT DELIVER US FROM ALL EVIL:FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM, AND THE POWER, AND THE HONOR, AND THE GLORY, FOREVER. IT IS IN CHRIST JESUS' PRECIOUS NAME, AMEN!
