READ: John 2:1-12
“Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding” – Proverbs 4:1
Servants are asked to obey and pay attention to their instructions. Paying attention causes you not to answer back. “Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again” (Titus 2:9).
Continuous retorts and arguments in defence of your action are a sign of a lack of respect and a lack of honour. When you are listening to instructions you do not answer back. It takes time to form an answer. This is the reason why people who argue a lot never change their minds.

Honour someone by paying attention to all instructions, big or small. Jesus’ mother warned the waiters to obey all the instructions given by Jesus. Most people do not obey all the instructions. Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth. Proverbs 7:24
Your deference, your yielding, your agreeing and your compliance with all instructions are manifestations of your honour for someone. Many people obey what they think is sensible and leave out what they think is not necessary.
By leaving out certain instructions, you are saying that some of the instructions given were nonsense! You despise those instructions! You have no respect for those inappropriate instructions. You have no respect for those domestic instructions.
By your actions, you declare that you utterly reject all nonsensical, inapplicable instructions that are given. Seething with indignation and pride, you utterly ignore useless instructions that are given to you. Dear friend, one of the greatest points of honour is paying attention to all instructions, especially the little things.
