“Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.”
Ephesians 6:2-3 KJV
The first mention of ‘father’ in the Bible is when God created mankind and spoke to Adam about marriage. God instituted the family structure...it is not a sociological evolution. In fact when Moses was given the law, this was the only commandment with a promise, apostle Paul said. Jesus honoured His Father in everything He did especially at the Cross and gave priority to His relationship with His Father. That’s how important this relationship is. Every opportunity we get to honour our father and mother, let’s take it! Even those fathers that neglected their responsibilities, let’s forgive them and ask God to heal those wounds. Where there were fatherless, let’s reach out to them to show our heavenly Father’s love. Happy Father’s Day!
