Title: Protocol of Honour
Scripture: Genesis 9:23 (BSB)
"Then Shem and Japheth took a garment and placed it across their shoulders, and walking backward, they covered their father’s nakedness. Their faces were turned away so that they did not see their father’s nakedness."
Noah, the preacher of righteousness, became overwhelmed by the abundance he received. Perhaps he did not know the intoxicating effect of wine. Yes, he erred—but judgment belongs to higher authority, not his sons.
No matter how anointed the fathers of faith may be, they remain human—flawed and frail in their humanity. The anointed can stumble and fall, just like anyone else.
Though they may face public disgrace, their errors do not strip them of God’s anointing. The gifts and the calling of God are without repentance.
“For God’s gifts and His call are irrevocable.” — Romans 11:29 (BSB)
Shem and Japheth acted wisely. They walked backward and covered their father's shame, refusing to look on his nakedness. They upheld a principle: the protocol of honour.
It is shameful for children to make a spectacle of their father's flaws. Fathers are to be honored, not discussed or ridiculed.
Ham failed the test. He saw his father’s nakedness and chose gossip over grace. He exposed what he should have covered.
When fathers—biological, spiritual, or societal—fall, it is the role of the younger ones to cover, not uncover. To restore, not broadcast. To intercede, not interrogate.
The command to honor our fathers stands with no condition or excuse.
"Honor your father and mother, so that your days may be long in the land the LORD your God is giving you." — Exodus 20:12 (BSB)
The word "father" means source. A river (child) who forgets or dishonors its source will run dry. Whatever the fathers do—especially spiritual leaders—we are bound by the protocol of honour.
"Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand." — Romans 14:4 (BSB)
Even correction must be done in honour, preserving the dignity of those wex esteem. Let us not become fault-finders in the name of discernment.
Don’t sit to analyze the mistakes of fathers—stand to pray for them.
