How Can You Encourage Others?

Consider God’s word. Apply it to your life.

Encourage others.
Don't bite their head off!
Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.  Hebrews 10:23-25

Encourage others. Think about how others have encouraged you…and do likewise. It comes back to that “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” The Golden Rule. Isn’t that just what most parents try to teach their kids? If you don’t want to be hit…don’t hit others!

Make a list…think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works.

It is sort of difficult to meet together during this COVID pandemic situation. The area where I live is still in a Stage 1…loosely 1.5. Groups still can only be ten people, but that is large enough for some Bible study groups to meet. The weather is good for meeting outdoors—so following the advice of this Scripture passage don’t neglect meeting together…especially now that the day of his return is drawing near. Do encourage others…it will encourage you, too. 

Prayer ~ Lord God, during these days of isolation we praise You that You are with us as You have promised to never leave us or forsake us. You are such an encouragement to us. Show us ways that we can encourage others.

Verse of Salvation ~ In that day the people will proclaim, "This is our God! We trusted in him, and he saved us! This is the LORD, in whom we trusted. Let us rejoice in the salvation he brings!" Isaiah 25:9
