Encouragement Is A Blessing

ENCOURAGEMENT IS A BLESSING

Blessings are gifts from God meant to be shared with others. When God encourages us we are to, in turn, reach out and encourage others. When we are encouraged by God directly from His word or by someone who is speaking on God�s behalf, it is a blessing. A blessing in which we should turn around and give to someone else. Those who encourage know the difference it will make in our lives. That is why we need to be sure to encourage those around us and share God�s word with them.

Numbers 6:24-26 �May the LORD bless you and protect you. May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you. May the LORD show you his favor and give you his peace.� (NLT)

Dear Lord, thank You for Your blessings which are very encouraging to us. Thank You for Your word which encourages us as well. Remind us daily to focus on our blessings and be encouraged by them. Remind us daily to use our blessings to share with others so they will also be encouraged. We don�t want to keep our blessings to ourselves. We want to share them as You have commanded us to do. In Jesus� name. Amen.
