ENCOURAGE OTHERS

ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO encourage is to help someone to feel confident and be able to do something. It is also to advice someone to do something positive. It can also be likened to supporting someone on an activity. Discouragement is the opposite of encouragement, when one is discouraged he loses confident. David encouraged himself first in the lord, before encouraging his men; he instilled confidence into them and he and his men pursed, overtook, and recovered back all the Amalekites had stolen. When you encourage others, you help them regain their momentum and strength. However, Joshua in Deuteronomy 3 vs 28 was encouraged by Moses, GOD told Moses to encourage him and he was able to lead the Israelites to the promise land, encouraging others makes them do what they believe they can’t do. Joshua at first will be discouraged, imagining himself stepping into Moses’s shoe; but he was encouraged by Moses and did what was required of him to do. Many are waiting to be encouraged, so they can find their feet back; but when there is no one to encourage them, they remain discouraged. Furthermore, as children of GOD we are to encourage the unsaved and those who have missed the way of salvation, to come back to the way. You can support them in prayers during your devotion or talking one on one with them; and you can also encourage the less- privileged by giving to them. A lot of Christians are out of the way, they need to be encouraged so they can come back to the light of salvation. Apostle Paul told the people of Rome he needed their help, for not only to share his faith with them; but to be encouraged by their faith too. When you encourage others you serve as a source of blessing to them. It is like you are blessing them; and GOD will surely reward you too. ENCOURAGE SOMEONE TODAY, TO FIND HIS FEET BACK AND BE CONFIDENT……

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY Integrity is a word which means steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. It also means the quality or condition of being complete and pure. It could also mean honesty, uprightness, purity, sincerity, decency, virtuous and wholeness. To retain is to keep in possession and maintain something. Many a time people find it difficult retaining their integrity. It takes determination to stand on your integrity. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. GOD is a lover of men of integrity. Daniel 1 vs. 8-9: But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. Now GOD had brought Daniel into favor and tender love wi...

WORK ON THE WORD 2!

WORK ON THE WORD 2! David knew the essence of working on GOD’s word. He wrote in Psalm 33 vs. 4 (NIV): For the word of the LORD is right and true, he is faithful in all he does. He also hid GOD’s word in his heart that he might not sin against HIM. Psalm 119 vs. 11: Your words have I hidden in my heart that I might not sin against you. Storing GOD’s word in our heart and doing according to it is working on the word. Keeping GOD’s commandment is working on his word. Proverbs 7 vs. 1-2: My sons, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with you. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of your eye.               Furthermore, working on GOD’s word is being the hearer and doer of the word. James wrote in James 1 vs. 22-24:  But be you doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer; he is like to a man beholding his natur...

EXISTENCE AND RELEVANCE

EXISTENCE AND RELEVANCE Existence is the state of being existing or occurring. To exist is a privilege because many wished they were alive, but they are not. People in the graveyard are non-existing. They lack significance. Nobody reckons with them again. I exist, you exist glory be to GOD for this. If you are reading these write up, it shows you are existing. The dead cannot read. All living being on earth exists. The greatest of all blessings on earth is the gift of life. We are to acknowledge our Creator and Maker; for this. He is the reason for our existence.

Relevance is doing what your Creator made you...
