Fantastic Happy Mother's Day to everybody or the mothers sorry
and especially all those who visiting with your children
today welcome and also want to welcome everybody who's mum drag
them to church today and on a welcome you as well, and thank
you for coming and I pray that she'll be blessed and we have
some morning tea for all the mums after the service. And so I
am sure that you are going to have a really blessed time if
you got your Bibles.
I see it, I'm really need your bottles. We put on the screen.
But it's a nice thought and phases. Chapter 6 verses 1:00 to
3:00. And it's amazing how we become so digitalized. I've been
preaching from an iPad or a screen for a number of years now
and couple years ago was preaching at the church and I
didn't take a screen. I actually just took my Bible to preach
from and it was so funny as I'm reading it. I'm actually using
my finger to scroll down the Bible wow. I caught myself doing
it. I thought Oh my goodness phases. Chapter 6 or not say to
honor says Special. Happy Mother's Day to my mom's here up
from Victoria. Of the frontier and I hadn't seen her this
morning and say. Happy Mother's Day. Mom praise God and happy
Mother's Day to my beautiful wife, Trisha and give them a
random pose as well and.
So awesome phases. Chapter 6 verses 1:00 to 3:00, says this
says children obey your parents in the Lord for this is right on
your father and mother, which is the first commandment with
promise that it may be well with you and you may live long on the
Earth. Let's pray father. I thank you for your word. I ask
and pray that you help us today to fulfill this scripture. I
think you're crazy for it. Lord in Jesus name Amen.
If you were here last year, you would know I did a series are in
church in term 3 from the letter of Ephesians called taking
territory and actually interesting enough in term, 3
this year. We're going to do a series across our church in the
morning on the book of James and we're going to call it life
lessons. But we did Ephesians last year and we talked about at
one point, one week. We did a thing called the household code
and we looked at Ephesians Ephesians Chapter 5 and the
start of Chapter 6 and here.
The Apostle Paul writes he says children obey your parents in
the Lord for this is right honor. Your father and mother,
which is the first commandment with promise so he there is
actually quoting one of the 10 Commandments and so one of the
top 10 rules that God gave in the Old Testament actually had
to do with the hell. We actually treat our parents and it says
they honor your father and your mother. So obviously it's
something that's important enough that not only is it a
commandment, but it's actually reiterated in the scripture.
By the Apostle Paul's the way that Christians are supposed to
behave and supposed to conduct ourselves and so today is a
church. We want to honor our mother's particularly today and
it stand in line and get an obedience with this scripture,
but you might be hearing and saying well. What does that
mean? What does it mean to honor your mother? What does it mean
to honor your father? Well, I'm glad you asked and so today. I
want to talk to you about a few things about honor that can help
us to be the kind of people that Bay this scripture and actually
on it. Her parents the first thing about honor is that honor
is simple. It's simple. It's not really complex. Some people
misunderstand about what the word honor means and sometimes
think it's a bit over the top and think that it's worship or
something like that. But it's not honor is actually quite
simple when you think about it. And if you look at the
scriptures on a basically means one of 3 things 3 hours, so to
speak. It actually means to
respect. Give recognition and actually reward respect
recognition and reward so I respect this talking about the
way that we treat people and so that means we're supposed to be
respectful to our parents. It also means to give due
recognition. So what that means is to actually acknowledge what
they have done if you honest someone for one of the ways we
honor them is we actually acknowledge what they've
actually achieved and what they've actually done and
another way that we on it is actually through rewarded
actually financial contribution.
There's a number of times in the scripture where it says the word
honor and actually means to actually give financially
classic example of that is in proverbs. Chapter 3, nine and
10. So is honor. the Lord with your wealth with the first
fruits of oil crops, then your band will be filled to
overflowing your vets will bring over with new wines. So if you
want to honor your mom. Today then do those 3 things.
Respect recognition and reward I know myself that over the years
and I can't like as my mom see to die. But there's been times
over the last number of years that I've tried to do all of
those things and especially on Mother's Day. I know you know,
I've lived away from my parents for about 22 years now and
there's been many times over those years when it comes to
times to give a present or you know where it's a birthday or
something like that there's always been a great temptation.
Not to not to send a gift. Sometimes it seems inconvenient.
They think I look at the postage attached and all that sort of
thing, but it's always been something that I really felt
that is important to do that. That's actually one of the ways
that we honor. Our parents now my sister. I forget her a fair
bit, but my parents. Try and make sure I remember one year,
moderating couple years ago. I think it was my mom's birthday,
and I got her and it's a lot simpler just the sender voucher
and so I'm going to JB hifi voucher and I can't remember
exactly how much it was.
But I got it and uh and I sent it in a card and I sent it down
down to Melbourne, where my parents live and I remember I
spoke to mom and I think was on a birthday. I said listen and
usually I kind of forget to the last minute. So usually by the
time I send it the birthday comes and then I get the
presence or later. And so I said. Bring up mom. I said,
Happy Birthday and your present is in the mail and it's on the
way and you guys are no worries. Thanks and a couple weeks later.
I was talking to my mom and she said. Oh, you know you mentioned
you sent something in the mail.
I said yes that's right you guys all we haven't got it yet.
And I said, OK, muscle major stock or forgotten or something
like that, and and then a couple weeks later. I remember thinking
myself. I wondered about their present. I rang up Mama said.
Did you get that present that in the mail and I was? I didn't
tell it was, but it was a voucher and she said she said.
She goes now. I haven't got it and I thought oh well. That's a
shame. United me best. It's the thought that counts it was
actually JB. Hi 5 outside. I thought you know, I think I
should be buying a 2 presents you know it's Australia post
fault. And so I did the right thing you know, and mom doesn't
really care anyway. And so I thought you know, I just sent it
but it just wouldn't leave me and then just before Christmas.
There was an actual aboard hours on and and at the end of the
year that we're giving a gift to every member of that board and
and I remember I received as a gift on that board a JB. Hifi
voucher for the exact amount that I lock got lost in the
mail. And my first thought was for crystal was upgrade AC
Obamas Awesome. Your headphones and another nano now. I'm
supposed to send this off. The map so I just sent it and send
it off to mom and that it was 'cause. It's their deeply held
conviction that honor part of that is actually reward. Another
way that we honor is actually through recognition. Now, if you
like Maine. All all my friends and family will tell you I'm a
very good communicator publicly, but not much of a talker
privately so. Uh and I remember when I send cards and
that sort of thing. It's very it's not a whole lot of detail
at all Happy Birthday Love Ben or happy Father's Day Mother's
Day. That's about it through the through the thing in their
virtual way we go and I remember one year. I was about
to send mom a card and do the usual thing card vouch send it
and I felt I'd say write down all the things that you want
to thank you for.
And I'm like you know, she she kind of would already
know that you know, and you know, and I should be
thankful for having me now.
That's alright I didn't want remember I did that once mom's
longtime you forgot you want to do it again alright.
Uh and I was number easy County. I haven't done it since but got
on that just right there more. Thank you for this. Thank you
for that. Thank you for this just just once, and made a lot
more from me. 'cause I don't normally do it and this a joke
and so. And so, but just just write that down and just 'cause
'cause 1. Otherwise, we on app
is free recognition. I was, I already know yeah, yeah, Yeah,
but sometimes it's good just to.
Just to do it honor is really actually simple it doesn't take
a whole lot. We can do. That is respect recognition and reward
the second thing about honor is that honor is unconditional.
It doesn't say honor your father and mother felt perfect.
Doesn't say only a father mother? Find never made any
mistakes? Doesn't say even say only your father mother if they
weren't if they weren't good it doesn't even say honor your
spiritual father and mother.
It actually says honor your
father mother. Close at the ones
you got. Now it's unconditional it doesn't put any kind of
behavior owner, So what that means is that we're supposed to
honor sometimes in spite of some of the things that have actually
happened to us, which can be really, really difficult. I've
I'm really fortunate our grew up in a very, very good time and my
parents are fantastic. And remember when Trish and I got
married. She said she felt she won the Jack pot with the
indoors and so.
And so, so I've had a very good upbringing, but I do know, and
obviously there would be a lot of people and I would imagine
that there's some people in here that have actually suffered.
At the hands of their parents.
And because of that there would be this natural thing like well,
they don't deserve it. You know after what they've done to us
after what they've done to Maine. They actually don't
deserve it. But here's the thing it's actually unconditional.
So what that means is there are times when we honor people in
spite. Of some of the things that we've been through and So
what that means is that it actually takes a bit of a
discipline. To take out eyes off the things that maybe they
didn't do but should of.
To take her eyes off some of the bad things, they did that they
should have. And actually for this talk, for this moment put
our eyes on the things that they
actually did do. And actually acknowledge the things that they
have done. And I have found that there's a lot of people. I know
that have had a very difficult upbringing and and so and so
because of that it can be sometimes be the one area of
their life that is almost like a non negotiable and no go zone.
There's been seen many times over the years and sharing with
people that honoring your parents that they have actually
there are a lot of people there life in so many ways. They've
got is on point. But it set for this one area because some of
the things maybe that they had experienced and without fail.
The amount of times. I've seen people who said they just got
this area in spite. It is very difficult for them to do that
'cause it wasn't naturally something they would want to do
this area that they got in order how things just open up in their
life and how great things
started to happen. Honor is actually unconditional maybe
there's some people here and because of the disassociation
from parents or something like that, and look. I know for most
people. This is a great day. But for some people it can be
difficult day out. I know some people that don't go to church
on Mother's Day and Father's Day every year. That's the only days
they don't go 'cause. It can be so difficult automatically for
some of you, it was actually quite difficult, maybe to even
come here today. You kind of force yourself to come here,
maybe because of some of the
things. That you have that you have experienced and so I know
some people that they've grown up in a family with their
parents went went very cordon and as a result of that God
brought into their life. Another couple or another family that
really took them in really mental them raise them up and
really help them and became like a spiritual father and mother,
which is fantastic and maybe you would naturally gravitate
towards them because you know if it wasn't for them. I wouldn't
be where I was and that sort of thing and I think that is
awesome. And we should honor people for having done that.
But that's not what this passage of scripture is talking about.
This passage of scripture is not talking about our spiritual
father mother. It's actually talking about the ones that we
have and something powerful happens. When we unconditionally
just decide. I am going to honor my mother today, even though
some may have had a very difficult upbringing difficult
experience I'm going to choose to do that, not because of baby
what they made not because of some of the bad things that have
happened but I'm going to focus on the good and I'm going to
honor them. 'cause honor is unconditional the third thing
about honor is that honor is
important. Honor is important for the child.
That actually we actually get a blessing as a result of it.
Notice this interfaces have to 6:00 he says honor your father
and mother, which is the first
commandment with promise. So if you get the 10 Commandments.
There's actually. No, you know in the Old Testament Exodus.
Chapter 20, they're all commands. But one actually has a
promise so basically God says if you follow this command. This is
actually what's going to happen and that's that's actually the
5th commandment, which is this one on your father mother and
this is the promise that it may be well with you and you may
live long on the Earth.
Who is the promise for it's for the child?
So basically sign if as the child by on of my father and
mother that all my will go well
with Maine. So it's important what that means is this our
future is dependent. Then, on how we treat our parents.
Now, most of us would acknowledge and think that
have futures depend on how they treated us.
But that's not actually what the
scripture says. Because some people might have had a very
difficult upbringing gone through some very tough
things. But the awesome thing is when you become a Christian
God can unwind all that so it doesn't matter what's happened
to you and even in the rewiring in the way you wired
God can transform you. He can touch you can change. You come
into his spiritual image and you can become a new creation.
That's all the bubbles are in your creation, so even if you
got through some incredibly difficult things I've met
people who have been through some incredibly difficult
things that have affected them. But God has undid the
work and it's transformed them.
So. But here he says to the Christian our futures not depend
on how I treated us.
Our future is dependent on actually how we treat them.
We actually have a blessing as a result of honoring our parents
and I've seen many, many times over the years, people have
decided they said. You know what inspired I'm just going to honor
and I'm going to bless and as a result of that. Things have
opened up in their life and things have opened up in their
world. Maybe you're hearing your parents or your mother is not
here that passed away and maybe when that happened. There was
some kind of disconnect or there was some kind of.
Difficulty associated with that and you feel like well, it's too
late. They've already gone. Can I tell you it's not too late.
'cause even in death. You can still give due recognition even
in death. You can still pay you can pay proper respect even in
the midst of all of that be cause. the Bible says that we
need to honor your father and mother that we might actually
inherited promise. God has promises and your future can
unfold and unlocked and one of the ways that that can happen is
actually by the way.
That we trade our parents and the 4th think is this.
Owner. Is a privilege?
Who's the privilege fault?
It's for us children.
It's actually a privilege.
God is so big on on.
And we're all wired for it.
That, he is come up with a system that will ensure that
everyone receives honor.
Now, not there would be many of us. Here, who are in jobs or in
careers or in a station in life. We actually don't receive honor
in our everyday world.
When literally were not treated with any honor or any respect.
Just a few years ago, I did a filling job doing delivery
driving and it was amazing. It was because one of the things I
did is I would actually spend time's coming down on the Gold
Coast and it was great and I could see different areas, which
I now say all the time, but one of the things I wasn't used to
was help people treated me when I was doing the delivery
driving. And so I would do that, they'll be driving and I Drop it
off with someone and you know you have an attendant who's nice
all the customers, but then
they'd snap at me. Or that treat me with disrespect and that sort
of thing. Now I'll be honest with you, I might have been a
bit sheltered or something but I wasn't used to that because I
was a traveling speaker when you're traveling speak everybody
rolls of red carpet out. You know, and you kind of get the
kind of subconsciously get used to it, and then I found myself
in a job where people were treating me with disrespect and
and it's kind of a little bit. Gyring and the reality is
automatically there be people in Jobs, where you might be treated
you don't necessarily. Get a whole lot of Honor and all work
is honorable regardless of what you do any kind of work is
honorable in society needs it, but not all work. Naturally,
gains, the honor that maybe that God wants people to have so God
has instituted a system by which everybody receives Simona.
It's from their children.
That literally as children. We can be the way that our parents
actually receive honor in this life is actually a privilege for
us. Some of us have parents that receive honor nowhere nowhere in
their life. Yet they can receive honor from somewhere and that
honor is actually from us and we give them the due respect
recognition and reward that they
deserve you know. I've told you the story about the naming of my
younger son and my youngest son is name is effel me and you
would know him and he's quite vocal and we are name team after
my dad and it's a talent tradition that you would name
one of your sons after your father now normally it's the
first son. But I had I had prayed about each name? What's
the name each child and really felt to call the first son, Amos
and second son, Joshuah and then I really felt to call the 3rd
one. Effel me an and all be honest with his battling with it
a bit because I thought I you're going to get tease for the name
because it's unusual name. It actually means it's the tongue
version of the Tri be frame, which means prosperous one. So
I'm trusting is going to be the really rich one and.
You know what is funny when you tell people he's name you know
you tell a polynesian his name
and? You know tongue and marry someone. Some, like that. I say
what's his name. He says names differ. Let me and they look at
you they got it off, it's so
beautiful. It tell an Aussie.
And uh another guys what's his name and you say his
name Ziffel, me and I look at you and they go?
How do you pronounce that and and then and then I thought and
then I thought you know then people going to call him if he
or not. I want people calling me fearsomely feared so it's if our
and and that sort of thing and and so was battling with
battling with it a little bit now at the time and then also
too. I mean, God is going to sense of humor. Trisha zanazzi
I'm half tongue in half Australian Amos when he was
born. He looked like a good blend look quite caramel joshuah
when he was born.
More of a throwback to the tongue inside came out looking
chocolate. So I thought that was probably the the gradient of the
color of my children and it never even occured to me that I
would have a white child and then and then we're already
decided to name in Philly, came out white and.
You know, God's got a real sense of humor and one of the major
reasons why, why calling me. For me was. I remember crying about
what to call each name and I knew that it was a tongue and
way of honoring your father and at the time without going into
detail. My dad was going through basically standing up for his
faith in an environment where he was being ridiculed being put
down and standing up for the Lord and I remember at the time
we got through a difficult time.
I remember the Times a little spike to me, he said
your dad is honoring Maine and being dishonored.
And he said, You're a son.
It's your job to make sure he gets some honor.
So you will call your son Effel
me. And then from then on, as 'cause wherever you guys people
going to ask him. Where did you
get the name from? And he's going to be able to tell them
I'm named after my dad if you let me not to go who's a great
man of God 'cause. It's our job. To actually honor Amen to it's
our privilege. To actually honor appearance, we might be the only
way our parents get some kind of
honor. In the whole world in their whole life. We might be
the only way. But God wants everybody to receive some honor
somewhere and it's actually out privilege to be able to do that.
And it's interesting you know fees and set the six one versus
1:00 to 4:00 and ask the worship team we come up.
You know. Over at last you that, after this, so, so the Apostle.
Paul says children are by your parents in the Lord for this is
right on your father and mother only command with the promise
that all my go well with you in the lane gods, giving you.
And then he goes on to it, he
says father's. He says father's dart frustrates her children and
raise them up in the training and the admonition of the Lord.
So it's interesting, he dresses their children, both boys and
girls. And then he addresses the
father's. But how they supposed
to trade the kids. He doesn't address the mountains.
Why doesn't he address the
mumps? 'Cause he doesn't need to.
It's a death, it's gonna be reminded.
It's not it's a dad that's probably going to be
reminded of the birthdays.
I'll be honest with you, I forgot to sometimes be
reminded of the names.
I've had many, many times or I'm talking to one of my sons.
An object of night all the other ones before I got there name
rods. I remember I was looking at the full me once and I said
listen. I'm assuming Josh because my legs if I let me.
The dad start the dad's are the ones that need to be reminded.
But not the mom's.
Why is that? 'Cause I realize
there for us. You don't have to
remind mom. Mom's always there.
You know, we've lived up 22 years I think away from my mom
and Dad. But to be honest, it doesn't seem that far away
because. Mom rings every week.
I remember when we first said Amos when he was born.
She means map chess has my boy gone I said, I'm doing good.
She has not you.
My only grandson.
Has a gallon?
One of the things of windows. I don't have to
tell mom to be there.
We had a difficult birth without person.
Very difficult.
My mom brings me up. This is how you going.
On the day I was born. I said no good.
Fixing an eye she took 2 planes and it was there that night.
With our second sign.
He was born prematurely died
and. So for your third son.
Um. My. My mom said look.
Not going to risk it again 'cause the 3rd one was born
4 weeks early.
So she brought the caravan up dead and parked in our driveway
in winter. For the 6 weeks before just in case.
And stuck around for the next 4
weeks. Just to make sure everything was OK.
Didn't ask.
Fine after.
At your mom's.
They have to ring up mom and say, Hey, listen, just going to
let you know. Boys birthdays next week.
Never have to do it. If actually reminds me.
Just let you know, I put some money in your account
to give time us all Utes birthday, thanks mom.
You never have to remind your
mom. I meant
That's why you dress the deads.
We forget.
The mums.
I never forget.
It's a sacrificial job.
The sacrificial role.
Is some people here in?
It's difficult because you did, all for your kids. And
for whatever reason, there's a disconnect there, not here
with you today wouldn't come with you.
When Trisha office behind the passes the church. I really felt
God say to me that over the next
decade or so. I was going to turn the hearts of the parents
to the children and vice versa.
There will be some people here, whose children are not here.
The before you pass they're going to be sitting here with
you. Nicole is going to bring him back together.
And the moms feel it.
The Mom's knowledge. The Mom's
don't forget. Soften the mums that have to wait till the food
is called before they get to eat
it. Let's make sure that everyone else gets it.
The Mom's not had a lie down in Sakra Falls for Runnels.
So today mums.
Kings church wants to honor you.
I'm going to give you more insight.
Want you to be blessed.
I want you to enjoy it. Dad will look after the kids after
kids church don't worry about it.
They're not going to call you and ask for help before a chop
out. It's not going to happen.
We're going to look after my
man. And we want to honor you
why. This is a promise for us.
And the promise is this.
Honor your father and mother the only come out with the promise.
So that might go well with you.

it was about your dad.
I say that Mother's Day is the highest amount spent on
presents. Barn Christmas Day.
I say in prisons in the United
States that. It's easy to get gas right Mother's Day
cards, but not many do Father's Day cards.
So maybe you're here and it's not about your mom. You
finding your sweet with your mom.
But that promises and honor your mother.
It's only your father mother.
And even though it's not Father's Day. Maybe we don't
