Hallelujah, praise the living God for another day to pray for you all and be used by Him. Today I offer this line from Charles Swindoll.
“Words of appreciation or gratitude cost nothing, yet how precious they are to the discouraged.”
Hebrews 3:13
New American Standard Bible
13 But encourage one another every day, as long as it is still called “today,” so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
Heavenly Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus, Your servant praises and worships You. Bless Your Word and the encouragement it provides to us Your children. Thank You for the warnings to guard our hearts against the deceitfulness of sin. Praise You for providing the answers to all our needs. Lead us in our joyful pursuit of becoming more like You as we encourage one another and thank You for the encouragement we receive knowing all good gifts come from You. In Jesus’ name and in the power of the Holy Spirit, amen.
If this prayer blessed you or brought you peace, please share this with someone in need.
Swindoll is right however, those words are precious especially when the receiver is blessed and not discouraged. It’s wonderful to hear those words of affirmation from others. But it is also wonderful to see a need and give those words to others. Great message brother!

Amen. Here is a note on this verse from my morning time with Abba.
This helpful command is called to be applied daily. I like to think of this as the call to share the gospel with each other and ourselves. That is the true encouragement: The fact that we are His and that He is coming back to take us home. Praise the Lord!
