The Wonderful Rewards of Respect
Hello my precious Queens,
Today I want us to discuss something very important. R-E-S-P-E-C-T. There are so many dimensions to it that it’s so important we understand it fully so we can receive all the wonderful rewards of respect.
What is Respect? Here is the dictionary definition: A feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements.
But it’s is so much more than that! Yes, to respect someone is to admire their accomplishments, perspectives and opinions. o be respected is to be shown consideration. When someone is greatly respected, they are treated differently, they are treated BETTER.
This is the main point, that when you are respected and when you respect others, it will be evident in behaviors, words, and deeds.
When you respect yourself…You will always speak kindly to yourself and encourage yourself with positive words like, “I am beautiful. I am kind. I am happy. I am intelligent. I am worthy of God’s love. I am capable of making all my dreams come true.” These are examples of self-respecting “self-talk.” The way we talk to ourselves, the way we think about ourselves, and the way we accept how others talk about us will show our level of self-respect.
When you have respect for yourself, you will not allow yourself to be mistreated. This doesn’t mean that some people may try to treat you badly, or say inappropriate things to you, or even do inappropriate things to you. But with your strong self-respect, you will walk away, leave the room, leave the party, and simply remove yourself from being around those people. You must be willing to end the friendships or relationships at the first sign of disrespect toward you. This takes a lot of strength and courage. But you’re a Queen! You have the power to command respect, and you must not tolerate disrespect EVER!
The next and most important part is respect for GOD.
We may all be Royal Daughters, but we are part of the Royal Kingdom of GOD. And He is our KING.
A Queen can only to be a Queen, if she acknowledges her place in the Kingdom and gives the glory and honor to our Father, GOD.
We would not have anything in this world if it wasn’t for God and His grace, love, and mercy for us.
How do we show respect for GOD? We love Him, with ALL OUR HEART. You pray to Him. Read the Bible and get to know His Word, and live according to the Word. You will choose to stay pure and holy before our KING, with no foul language, no anger, no pre-marital sex, no lying and no sin. We sing for Him.
Listen to this song and sing it to Him whenever you want to give Him glory and praise for the good things He has given you in your life.
Oh Royal Queens, the Rewards of Respect are so wonderful! God will grant each and every one of you the desires of your heart. Only, if we respect ourselves, others, and Him.
God Bless You!!!
I love you all so very much!
