The other day I was feeling a bit discouraged doing the Blog and was wondering whether the Lord really wanted me to continue with it or not. I’d had the enemy giving me a hundred and one reasons why I should stop doing it!
We’ve probably all been there. The enemy pressuring us to stop doing what God has given us to do; trying to fill us with negative thoughts that pull us down and make us think there’s no point. I should know better, shouldn’t I, but we need to be honest with each other about those times, because they come to us all in different ways about different things.
So what do we do with them? Well I texted a good Christian friend who told me I needed to boot the enemy out the back door! She encouraged me to carry on and to stop listening to all the lies of the enemy.
You see sometimes we need to share what’s going on with us on the inside, and be honest with someone we trust. We need a listening ear who can give us Christian wisdom and encouragement.
We all need encouragement and the Lord has put us in the body of Christ so we can encourage one another when we need it. So may I be a voice of encouragement to you today, to keep going, to keep serving the Lord, whether it’s in the home or at work, to keep believing the promises and to stop listening to any lies the enemy has been throwing at you and know the Lord is pleased with you.
Be an encouragement to others, just a word here or there, anything that will uplift or let them know you’re praying for them or that you appreciate them. Be the listening ear they need and then lift them up as God shows you.
The Lord has given us to each other to be there for one another, knit together in one body to build each other up, whether we’re in the UK, Ireland, Sweden, Uganda, USA or wherever we are on earth.😊
Ephesians 4:16 He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. As each part does its own special work it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love.
Be blessed, be an encourager today.x
