READ: 1 Timothy 5:17-18

“A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: If then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith the Lord of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye say, wherein have we despised thy name?” – Malachi 1:6

Let’s look at these five reasons why people do not give gifts or sacrifices.

a. Sometimes people are too busy to present gifts, which also means they are too busy to honour you.

b. Sometimes people expect to receive gifts but never give gifts to anyone. This means they expect to receive honour but do not give honour to anyone.

c. Sometimes people are self-absorbed and indifferent to the greatness of another. This means they are self-absorbed and indifferent to the honour that is due others.

d. Sometimes people do not respect you or honour you because they have not been taught the Word of God.

e. Sometimes people feel that they do not have disposable income so they cannot present a sacrifice or a gift. Once again, disposable income speaks of rubbish that you throw away; something you can dispose of.

These are common reasons why people do not present any gift or sacrifice. However, the Bible is clear about honouring with substance. Indeed, if you really honour someone, there will be a time when you will have to present a sacrifice or a gift to the person.

One day, Kenneth Hagin received a whole suitcase of clothes from his church members. As they went through the items, it was clear that most of the clothes were so worn out that they could not be used. He asked his wife to throw the suitcase of clothes out. He said to his wife, “If it is not good for them, it is not good for us.”

Honouring someone is not about throwing your waste on the person. It is about honour! A sacrifice will always cost you something. Let’s be serious!
