Malachi 1:6 · World English Bible
A son honors his father, and a servant his master. If I am a father, then where is my honor? And if I am a master, where is the respect due me? Says Yahweh of Armies to you, priests, who despise my name. You say, ‘How have we despised your name?’
The father asking for honor is your own awareness of being, the I AM at the center of you from which every condition is born. To honor it is to guard what you attach to it, because whatever you join to those two words comes to pass.

MANIFESTATION
The father asking for honor is your own awareness of being, the I AM at the center of you from which every condition is born. To honor it is to guard what you attach to it, because whatever you join to those two words comes to pass. The complaint here is that people revere the sense of self and then feed it their smallest fears.
The despising is unconscious. A person says he believes in his own power, then all day tells himself he is poor, unwanted, stuck. That is the dishonor, and he cannot even see he is doing it. He asks how he has failed while failing in the very sentence. Awareness gives itself to whatever follows it. The name is honored when a person keeps company only with the states he would consent to become.
Manifestation lens
What have you been quietly agreeing to be, all day, without hearing yourself say it?
What you are now came out of what you have been thinking. The mind leads, and the life follows the way a cart follows the ox.
He said to watch the words you repeat to yourself, because the small running commentary about your lot is what hardens into your character.
A person is made of desire: whatever state he keeps resolving on, that is what he becomes and what he goes on to.
