Devotion:
Read Hebrews 3:12-14.
This scripture is such an important message for us. Encouraging one another is a vital part of our daily walk with Christ. We live in a world corrupted by non-believers, sin, persecution, and material emphasis. How can we stay focused on our faith? Scripture gives us this guidance: love, encourage, and pray for one another. In God's grace, the Holy Spirit uses these acts of care to see us through the most trying of times.
When fellow believers are struggling, we should be quick to extend a helpful, sharing hand. We should shower others with grace and generous affirmation. Our words should be words of comfort and prayer, as well as tangible acts of kindness. When we encourage people around us, we will be surprised by how much we are encouraged ourselves.
One important lesson we find here is that in living in community together, we need to encourage each other in our walk with God and our faith journey. We cannot keep free from sin and drifting from God on our own. We need the Lord, and we need each other. We must support each other to keep moving forward living the way of Jesus.
Personal Worship Option:
Father, we praise you for faithful believers who have encouraged us in our daily journey of faith. Give us your love so that we may become godly encouragers to others. Amen.
