To become the best we must  first become the least. We must first learn to follow before we can lead. We must first learn to serve before we can be served. We must first give before we can receive. We maybe able to be the things and have these things but it is without a full understanding. We do not know the sacrifice, work, pain, and effort that goes into anything unless we first do it our selves. If we truly want to be great we must be a servant at the cost of our selves. Christ did it! He asked you to do the same! What are you doing today to become a servant as Christ did? “”… And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave—  just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.”” Matt. 20:27-28 Do not live to be served. Live to serve. Seek and save the lost. Exhort and encourage each other today. :)  Gal. 1:3-5

We need to teach and admonish each other.  Teaching each other the word and its application is very important.  We must make sure we are thoroughly educated and continue in that education.  (Col. 3:16; I Tim. 2:4) We must use such education to admonish one another.  We have to keep each other focused and on course.  We need each other to do that.  God gave us and blessed us with a body.  Therefore, we need the body to get to heaven.   “…teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” Col. 3:16 Teach and admonish someone today. Seek a lost soul and do all you can to bring them to Christ today. Keep working hard! :)   Gal. 1:3-5

Lifting each other up in prayer is a great way to exhort one another   We need to pray with each other.   We need to offer up prayers for each other.   We need to fervently pray for the specifics needs of another.   Not in unspoken prayer request or vague appeal for prayer do we go to God for each other.   We enter the throne room of God on behalf of each other over specific needs and trespasses.   To do that we need to be real with each other.   Not fake in the way we present our need for trespasses or weaknesses.   We need to be encouraging one another by praying for and with each other. “Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed.   The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.”   James 5:16     Talk to and pray for someone today about their specific need. Seek a lost soul and pray with them! :) Keep about the work of the Lord today. Gal....

We must encourage each other. We can encourage each other in many ways. One way is encouraging each others  faith. We need to keep each other exhorted in the faith we have received. We need to study with one another keeping our selves rooted in the faith. We need to exhort an active faith in all the brethren.  We should be encouraging a limitless faith in our brothers and sisters. We need to  recall the purpose and basses of our faith for one another.  We should always be  rooting  and encouraging  each other concerning our faith. Daily encourage your brothers and sisters in Christ! They need it and so do you. We are one body. “and sent Timothy, our brother and minister of God, and our fellow laborer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you and encourage you concerning your faith,” 1 Thess. 3:2 Encourage a body member  today! Seek a lost person and encourage them to become a Christian today! :) Gal. 1:3-5

Encouragement is essential. We know life is difficult. We know sin can drag any one down at any moment. We know the world is working against us. We know that there is evil out there that we stand against every day. We forget every soldier grows weary. We forget every fighter gets down. We forget every servant grows tired. The road is long and difficult for Christians. That is why you and I need to encourage each other daily. We need to exhort one another in all things. We need to always be uplifting our brethren. We cannot wait tell we know someone is down and out. If we wait it may be too late. Seek to encourage a brother or sister in Christ today. Seek to encourage a brother or sisters in Christ every day.   “Now we exhort you, brethren, warn those who are unruly, comfort the fainthearted, uphold the weak, be patient with all.” 1 Thess. 5:14 “but exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.” ...

We are to exemplify what it means to be a child of God. When the world lays their eyes on you and I they should see Christ. When the world encounters our lives, they should see Christianity. When the world hears our words, they should hear the gospel call. Our character should exemplify what it means to be a saint. We need to daily let our light so shine before men that they praise God. Exemplify Christianity today!  “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven .”   Matt. 5:16 Go out and shine today! Seek and save the lost with all you have their life depends on it.  J Gal. 1:3-5

You have got to say “yes” to the life given by God. You must say “yes” to the hope of eternal salvation. You have got to say “yes”. Yes, you can make it. It does not matter how many failures you have had. It does not matter how many mistakes you have endured. It does not matter about your defeats. It does not matter about what you have done. What matters is what you are doing right now.  You have got to put forth the effort. You must get it done. You have got to work. Effort is the difference between life and death. As Christians effort is the difference between eternal life and eternal death. Say “Yes” to all that God has laid before you. Say “yes” and get it done everyday to receive eternal life! “What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them?” James 2:14 “You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone.” James 2:24 “ And what more shall I say? I do not have tim...
