The Commandment that blesses you twice at the same time

The Bible is the written word of God. There, you can find ten commandments God gave to humanity (Exodus 20:1-17). These are a set of principles set by God that show people the right path they should take while living in society.

If you follow them, you will receive the blessing that is implied for obeying to God. However, there is a specific commandment that has a doble portion of blessings.  This commandment can bless you greatly if you decide to put it into practice.

“Honor your father and mother which is the first commandment with a promise. So that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth.” Ephesians 6:2-3

This means give them the position of respect and authority they have. it also implies to prize them highly, care for them, show them respect, and obey them.
