A Daily Devotional

About building others up�.

Ephesians 4:29 Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. (NIV)

What kind of world would we have if everyone tore all the other people down? What kind of world would we have if everyone was out only for themselves? We are almost in a world like that now. To preserve the world and to build up the kingdom of God, our Lord wants us to build up others rather than tear them down.

You glorify God when you build others up. God's will for us is to help others become more than they ever thought they could become. God's will is for us to help others. When we help others by building them up, we are doing what Jesus did. We are doing what God wants us to do. When we help others by building them up, we need to remember to help them according to their need, not according to what we want them to need or according to what we think they should need. We must not help others to the point where we make them dependent in any way. God is not glorified when we overly help someone and make them helplessly and hopelessly dependent upon us or dependent upon an institution. Before you help someone, do all in your power to try and walk in their shoes. Do all in your power to see things the way others see them. When you speak, what you say should be what Christ would say to help others, to heal them, and to bring them into wholeness and spiritual prosperity.
