Today’s Verse:
"Encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing." – 1 Thessalonians 5:11

Prayer for Today :

Heavenly Father,

There are people who are talented, skilled, and full of potential, yet they will not listen to your views or point of improvements. They will tend to treat them as criticism. Sometimes, they will even think, "Who do you think you are? You don't have the looks, the money, the intellect, the connections, or the talent."

Father, You have commended us to love one another as ourselves, so please help us to forgive their behaviours. Father, we may not have the looks, the money or the talent, but we do have a passion and a heart for them, to advice them and to encourage them to be their better self. Father, many of them may be too proud to accept, even to proud to accept our prayers for them, but Father, it is written "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you.", help us to stand by them with Your Almighty strength and teach us how to make them understand that we are only trying to stand by them as brothers and sisters in Christ.

As Joyce Meyer said "God asks you and me to put our faith in Him and to believe that we can do whatever He asks us to do. He is mighty to uphold us and to make us stand! He will support us and keep us from falling."

In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
