Comfort and Edify

We need to comfort and edify one another. Comforting one another is so important. We have so many daily struggles that we can become week and weary. Sometimes we fall so head long into life that we seem to be drowning in uncontrollable events. We need each other to be there and comfort us. We must comfort and edify each other in the same way and in the same manner God does. If we refuse to we may seek said comfort from another illegitimate source. That would simply further the tail spin and the desperate need for brotherly comfort. We also need to edify one another in down trodden times and every day. Let us not grow weary of edifying and comforting our brethren. Some may need more than others. We need to be there for all our brethren as God is with us.



“Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.” 1 Thess. 5:11

Gal.1:3-5

Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:13-16 NKJV

In The Name Of

Everything that we do must be in the name of Jesus. The phrase “in the name of” identifies by whose authority. Everything we do we must do in and by the authority of Christ. We cannot quit because Christ is with us. Jesus made it clear if we do His commands He is with us tell the end of the age. We must work and operate within His authority and by His authority.   Success outside of this parameter is not godly success but worldly achievement. Therefore, it is nothing more than sin. In order to never quit and have an attitude of success only we must remain in Christ authority. The right growth, maturity, success rate, and prize in only found in Christ. Everything else is only an illusion of what could be.   Keep working in the name of Jesus. ““Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; ”” Acts 2:38 “And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through...
