Being Encouraged
I have learned that my businesses are a ministry unto someone else. It's not about what I can get and what I want, it IS about someone else and how I can help them. I am staying encouraged through my tests and trials.
Being encouraged is not just for personal and spiritual fullfillment, it is to be a testimony for others. Being encouraged means walking the spiritual plan God has for you. Sometimes you have to step back and see where you are to understand your place RIGHT NOW.
Ask yourself, where are you right now where you need encouragement? Are you in a place where you can't even see your way out?
I have compiled a few scriptures and personal insights that you can use to help you see where you are:
Judges 20:22
But the men of Isreal encouraged one another and again took up their positions where they had stationed themselves the first day.
>>Sometimes where you were when you got depressed, discouraged, and SAD, is where you need to get back to, and pick yourself up.
2 Chronicles 32:6-7
He appointed military officers over the people and assembled them before him in the square at the city gate and encouraged them with these words:"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraide or discouraged because of the king of Assyria and the vast army with him, for there is a greater power with us than with him." {Eph.6:13 Therefore put on the full armour of God, so that when the dayof evils comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand."
>>Remember, no weapon formed against you shall prosper.
>>Stand strong in the power that God has given you and look up not out.
Acts 9: 31
Then the church throughout Judea, Galilee and Samaria enjoyed a time of peace. it was strengthened; and encouraged by the Holy Spirit, it grew in numbers living in the fear of the Lord.
>>Pray often, and sometimes long.
>>Get direction from the spirit to get back to the place of encouragement.
When you are back on track to encouraging yourself, you can encourage others. Our trials and our triumphs are not so life threatening that we can't look to the Lord and obtain peace, balance, and spiritual connection!
