BIBLE READING: Psalm 141-145
TOPIC : THE WORDS OF A BELIEVER
TEXT "Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you." Isaiah 35:3-4
The words of a believer should strengthen people and not put them down, it should give people reason to hold on and not give up. Hence scripture says, "Say ye to the righteous that it shall be well with him: For they shall eat the fruit of their doings" Isaiah 3:10.
There are people who needs encouragement to press on joyfully; your words of testimony of how God did it for you would lift up their faith. It would make them know their harvest time would also manifest incase they are yet to see the reward of their input in what they are doing.
Let people look up to your words and in what they are doing.
Let people look up to your words and love to have you around.
Let them thank God to have known you because you will not allow them to drown in sorrow even if they are overtaken in a fault.
With love and empathy you will help to restore them on their faith again.
Galatians 6:1 says "Brethren if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual restore such one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself lest thou also be tempted".
Believers are not expect to be judgmental in their speech always condemning, downplaying peoples strength and exaggerating their weakness.
It is better to be silent if you don't have words that will lift up people than to add their pains.
Scripture says in James 5:16, "confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another that ye may be healed..." because God expects His children to come to maturity on how to relate with one another in love.
Hence it also says in Colossians 4:6 "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.
I pray for you, may your words always bring joy and gladness to others.
May you rule over your spirit and always be a blessing to others.
Prayer : "My Father, My Father! As I begin to pray, help me to be a blessing to others with my words.
