4 : B V O V
Every day, commitments of honor
are required of you. You have choices
to make regarding ethics in your job,
disciplining your children, keeping your
marriage strong⎯and it's hard.
It's a choice between God's honor and
man's. One brings true and sure success; and
one brings shallow, temporal success that ends
in ultimate failure.
So, how are you doing? Do you have trouble
keeping commitments? Do people take you at
your word? Or have they grown skeptical of your
promises? If so, then you need honor⎯honor
that comes from God only. You just can't
live the Christian life without honor.
You'll never be faithful without it. You
can't be. Without honor, you don't have
the power to be faithful. It's just not in
you.
In John 5:41-44, Jesus told the Pharisees
about honor that comes from God only: "I receive
not honour from men. But I know you, that ye
have not the love of God in you. I am come in my
Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another
shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
How can ye believe, which receive honour one

your ground,
no matter how
tough the battle

temptation.
(Ps. 15:4)

As you get into The
WORD and allow it to
get on the inside of
you, honor will well
up in you so full you'll
have no desire to walk
in anything else.
(Josh 1:8)

As you become
honorable, you will
speak the truth. You
will take your words
seriously. You will
never distort the truth
or speak idle words.
(Matt. 5:37)

Make the
decision to
walk in the
honor that
comes from
God.

That Comes From God Only
Honor
Honor. Godly honor. It's the
kind of honor that keeps its
word and standard of integrity
no matter what. It never fails—
and it always succeeds.
