Knowing that Jesus can return for His church at any time, Paul gives us these instructions. “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” (1 Thessalonians 5:11)
In a world that tears us down, we need to build each other up and encourage one another in the Lord, which is exactly what you are doing with your posts.
Thank you so very much. It is a true blessing. Take care and God bless
“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.”
~Hebrews 11:6🕊
“I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in Me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.”
~John 15:5🕊
When Solomon became king of Israel, he knew that leading God's people was a great responsibility. One night, God appeared to him in a dream and said,
“Ask for whatever you want me to give you.”
Instead of asking for riches, a long life, or victory over his enemies, Solomon asked God for a wise and understanding heart so he could govern the people fairly and distinguish right from wrong.
God was pleased with Solomon's request. He granted him extraordinary wisdom and also promised him riches and honor. Solomon's choice showed that he valued wisdom above personal gain.
“So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people.”
1 Kings 3:9
Solomon understood that he needed God's wisdom more than anything else to fulfill his responsibilities. His prayer teaches us to seek understanding and good judgment rather than focusing only on material blessings.
Before asking God to change your circumstances, ask Him to give you the wisdom to handle them well..
