Welcome to "Victorious Daily Devotion" in the most amazing and loving name of Jesus Christ! 🙋‍♀️💐💐💐Topic: Be An Encourager! Be A Barnabas In Someone's Life.An Encourager is basically unselfish in nature and always has helping nature to uplift someone. "A word of Encouragement during a failure is worth more than hours of praise after success." Is it not true? When there is a failure or set back all they need is the warm words of support, and smile. It may be children, their studies and during exams or it might be you as a leader in your professional job or as a parent or as a spouse. Encouragement is a powerful tool which turns failures into success, despair into joy. Encouragement is breathing life into someone, giving a helping hand to someone in need or demoralized. A good and genuine leader always encourages others who are in need. When there is no one around you, the one who stands boldly and helps and supports is the true encourager. Acts 9: 26& 27. We see the life of Barnabas, who is called encourager in the New Testament. Barnabas stood up for Paul when he was shunned and distanced by the early believers. He encouraged Paul and told them that Saul encountered Jesus and has really changed. If Barnabas was not there to give timely encouragement there wouldn't have been 70% of the new Testament. That's blessed. Is it not? John Mark was traveling with Barnabas and Paul on the first missionary journey. John Mark abruptly left both of them and returned back.Acts 15: 37 & 38. In the next missionary journey Barnabas wanted to give John Mark second chance to come with him and Paul. But Paul refused to take John Mark. Therfore Barnabas took John Mark with him and left. His encouragement as a leader and evangelist gave two powerful evangelists, Paul and John Mark and this John Mark who wrote gospel of Mark.An Encourager will always try to uplift others, build others and support others. Here we see clearly Barnabas showed a worthy example and his deeds show certainly, he is more righteous than Paul at that point of time. There are few people who encouraged me the most when I needed. By His grace I have encouraged many people especially the younger ones and families, when needed.When you get an opportunity to speak a word of Encouragement speak out. You will lose nothing but gain. Be an helping hand. May the world know you with noble deeds rather than your riches and position in the society. We need to remember, God blessed us not to withold but be a blessing to others.Help us Lord to share a warm and encouraging word when we meet someone or when we go to church ... and give us the heart to bless and encourage others.If you are blessed with devotion you are welcome to share with us. God bless! 🙋🏻‍♂️💐💐💐Benedict James.Our contact for queries or any prayer request @91 97040 28977
