FIRST COMMANDMENT WITH PROMISE

Proverbs 20:20 • Audio 5.5mins, 2.2mb
Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness. AKJV

The first incidence to today's Proverbs verse is that it's opposite to Exodus 20:12 but with same inclination and implication. "Honour thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee" is the other way of saying, "Whoso curseth his father or his mother his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness". Invariably, anyone who does not honour his father or offers his mother something else than honour is automatically cursing them.

Take note of the word "Honour", it's the command of God with a connotative meaning relative in subject of love. Honour is love shown with some deference. It's actually some compared love shown while involving other parties with the scale of preference in focus. For the entire law is based on love and divided into two - love God with all your heart, and all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; the second is like first, love your neighbor in place of (as) yourself!

This means in the hierarchy of love, God comes first! This is foremost and very crucial. Any love that passes not through God to you is fake, ingenuine, some infatuations or coded hatred. In fact, such love should be disregarded simply because it'll be carnal and can never ever last. The love that last forever passes through God to others! This makes it very possible to love your neighbor proper, the way God wants!

The second category in the hierarchy of love is your neighbor, not you yet.

There you are - you come third! But before you go all way to lavish love on yourself in much extravagance and luxury, remember to honour duly your parents. By the virtual of their efforts and struggle and prayers over you, response and correspondence go first to them before they come to you. Now, they're invisibly the third on the chart while you come last. This is how love should spread wide but not wild amongst us.

Love without God is wild, harmful and unacceptable. By this have many died thinking they were loved whereas, the love given them was rehearsed and acted to deceive. Love that comes through God is incorruptible and clean, safe and holy, dependable and sure. You can bank on it!

Lastly, there's a side of today's twentieth verse you should never skip. Yeah, it's in the audio mp3! Get it downloaded, confirmed, then share to spread this news because it is the eternal gospel of our God, the everlasting Good News that was and now is and is to come!


Hope to meet you again tomorrow 21st November. God keep us! I remain PoS your Pastor-On-Street.

Peace

Reflexions 5th Edition House Of God Part 4, The Last Lines.mp3 When you enter God's temple, you should be sure to listen carefully. Doing that is better than offering sacrifices to God and then not obeying him, which is foolish. Think carefully before you speak [MTY] or before you promise God that you will do something [IDM]. Do not forget that God is in heaven and he is all-powerful and you are here on the earth, so think carefully before you make any promises to God. If you are continually thinking and worrying about things, you will have bad dreams about them and not rest well.

Having been made perfect, he became to all of those who obey him the author of eternal salvation, named by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek . Hebrews 5:7-10 WEB The very first incidence to Sons Of God is the fact that for everyone God has called, He gave birth to them. This was the argument Lord Jesus held with Nicodemus in John 3:4, 9-10 that if he was the teacher of Israel, a respected teacher and ruler, this point should not be oblivious to him! Nicodemus retorted, " How can a man be born when he's old, shall he enter into his mother's womb the second time? " Which meant the Lord's standpoint view was unknown to Him - that the second ...
