May 11, 2025 – Honor by Serving
Proverbs 1:8-9
Sermon: 1787 Honoring Father and Mother

Pray Over This

“My son, hear the instruction of your father, and do not forsake the law of your mother; for they will be a graceful ornament on your head, and chains about your neck.”
Proverbs 1:8-9

Ponder This

You can honor your parents by living a godly and noble life. You are an extension of your father and your mother. Do you know what gives me great joy? When I sense that my parents are proud of me. When I sense that I give my mother a sense of gratefulness that I am her son. Do you know what gives me great joy as a father? To see my children live right. When I watch my children bless their children, my heart fills with joy.

I went to put my son on an airplane to Spain as a missionary. I watched that man, his wife, and our little Jonathan get on that plane, and I thought “Thank You, God. Thank You for a son who loves you and wants to spend his life spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ.”

Your parents gave you life. Their very blood flows through your veins. The love of godly parents is the closest thing to the love of God known on this Earth. Honor them by living your life for the Lord, and by spending your life loving and serving others.

• How can you honor your father and mother in the way you live?
• What kind of faith legacy do you want to leave? What are you doing right now to pursue that legacy?
