The Honor Principle
John 12:25-26 (NKJV)
He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.
If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also.
If anyone serves Me, him My Father will honor.
Honor - to value, see as weighty and precious.
- According to Webster’s dictionary honor is defined as “to revere, respect; to treat with deference and submission, and preform relative duties to.”
Honor is a forgotten virtue in the church that must be activated!
It is a powerful virtue that unlocks and releases the kingdom of heaven and unimaginable breakthrough!
Merriam Webster Defines “principle” as:
1a: a comprehensive and fundamental law, doctrine, or assumption
b: a rule or code of conduct
Honor is the primary function of the apostolic mandate.
Honor activates the anointing The Flow of Honor: First Christ, then prophets (five-fold), then the righteous man, then our peers, and finally those who serve under us.
Honors Reward
Matthew 10:40 (TPT)
“Whoever receives you receives me, and whoever receives me receives the One who sent me.
Whoever receives a prophet because he is God’s messenger will share a prophet’s reward.
And whoever welcomes a good and godly man because he follows me will also share in his reward.
And whoever gives a cup of cold water to one of my humble disciples, I promise you, he will not go unrewarded.”
Faith is the frequency of Heaven
Faith produces rewards.
Hebrews 11:6 (AMP)
But without faith it is impossible to [walk with God and] please Him, for whoever comes [near] to God must [necessarily] believe that God exists and that He rewards those who [earnestly and diligently] seek Him.
The Difference Between Partial and Full Rewards
Matthew 6:5-6 (TPT)
“Whenever you pray, be sincere and not like the pretenders who love the attention they receive while praying before others in the meetings and on street corners.
Believe me, they’ve already received in full their reward.
But whenever you pray, go into your innermost chamber and be alone with Father God, praying to him in secret.
And your Father, who sees all you do, will reward you openly.
*Note: Talk About the 10 Leapers As An Illustration
How do you obtain honor’s full reward?
Proverbs 22:4 (TPT)
Laying your life down in tender surrender before the Lord
will bring life, prosperity, and honor as your reward.
Proverbs 21:21 (TPT)
The lovers of God who chase after righteousness
will find all their dreams come true:
an abundant life drenched with favor
and a fountain that overflows with satisfaction.
No Rewards
Mark 6:1-6 (TPT)
Afterward, Jesus left Capernaum and returned with his disciples to Nazareth, his hometown.
On the Sabbath, he went to teach in the synagogue.
Everyone who heard his teaching was overwhelmed with astonishment.
They said among themselves, “What incredible wisdom has been given to him!
Where did he receive such profound insights?
And what mighty miracles flow through his hands!
Isn’t this Mary’s son, the carpenter, the brother of Jacob, Joseph, Judah, and Simon?
And don’t his sisters all live here in Nazareth?”
And they took offense at him.
Jesus said to them, “A prophet is treated with honor everywhere except in his own hometown, among his relatives, and in his own house.”
He was unable to do any great miracle in Nazareth, except to heal a few sick people by laying his hands upon them.
He was amazed at the depth of their unbelief!
Then Jesus went out into the different villages and taught the people.
The Flow of Honor
- The Flow of Honor: First Christ, then prophets (five-fold), then the righteous man, then our peers, and finally those who serve under us.
*God Established 4 Divisions of Delegated Authority:
Civil Church Family Social
Civil Authority
1 Timothy 6:1-2 (TPT)
Instruct every employee to respect and honor their employers, for this attitude presents to them a clear testimony of God’s truth and renown.
Tell them to never provide them with a reason to discredit God’s name because of their actions.
Especially honor and respect employers who are believers and don’t despise them, but serve them all the more, for they are fellow believers.
They should be at peace with them as beloved members of God’s family.
Be faithful to teach them these things as their sacred obligation.
Romans 13:1-7 (TPT)
Every person must submit to and support the authorities over him.
For there can be no authority in the universe except by God’s appointment, which means that every authority that exists has been instituted by God.
So to resist authority is to resist the divine order of God, which results in severe consequences.
For civil authorities don’t intimidate those who are doing good, but those who are doing evil.
So do what is right and you’ll never need to fear those in authority.
They will commend you for your good citizenship.
Those in authority are God’s servants for the good of society.
But if you break the law, you have reason to be alarmed, for they are God’s agents of punishment to bring criminals to justice.
Why do you think they carry weapons?
You are compelled to obey them, not just to avoid punishment, but because you want to live with a clean conscience.
This is also the reason you pay your taxes, for governmental authorities are God’s officials who oversee these things.
So it is your duty to pay all the taxes and fees that they require and to respect those who are worthy of respect, honoring them accordingly.
Honor Harsh Authority
-How Do We Handle It?
1 Peter 2:18 (NKJV)
Servants, be submissive to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the harsh.
We honor leadership because of their position, not their behavior.
According to Thayer’s dictionary the greek word for harsh is skolios.
Skolios - crooked, perverse, wicked, unfair and forward.
W.E. Vine’s, an expert in Greek New Testament words defines the term as “tyrannical or unjust masters (leaders).”
Other versions of the Bible translates this term as “dishonest, cruel and unreasonable leadership.
Let’s look at this passage of scripture again.
Only this time let’s look at it in The Passion Translation (TPT).
- 1 Peter 2:18-19 (TPT)
Those who are servants, submit to the authority of those who are your masters—not only to those who are kind and gentle but even to those who are hard and difficult.
You find God’s favor by deciding to please God even when you endure hardships because of unjust suffering.
“All authority is of God, but not all authority is godly.”
- John Bevere
There are three benefits for honoring harsh leadership:
Your case will be put in the hands of God, who will judge justly.
When you repay evil with a blessing (honor), you inherit a blessing from God. See 1 Peter 3:9.
When you handle unfair treatment with honor or blessing, you position yourself to receive a reward or promotion.
There’s a big difference between harsh leadership and immoral leadership; evil dictators that try to lead and convince their followers to sin.
