What does it mean to honor a friendship? Solomon's father David had a great friendship with King Hiram of Tyre and now Solomon was hoping to use that friendship. In 1st Kings 5, Solomon connects with Hiram about asking for cedars so he could build a temple for the Lord.  Hiram and Solomon worked together to accomplish an important task for the Lord. As believers we should honor the friendships in our lives and finish strong for Christ.
