Compliments

What is the impact of complimenting and encouraging others?

God’s Response

Encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing. 1 Thessalonians 5:11

Commission Joshua and encourage him, for he will lead the people across the Jordan. He will give them the land you now see before you. Deuteronomy 3:28

Jonathan went to find David and encouraged him to stay strong in his faith in God. 1 Samuel 23:16

Hezekiah encouraged the Levites for the skill they displayed as they served the LORD. 2 Chronicles 30:22

Everyone needs encouragement. Think how you feel when someone sincerely expresses their confidence in you, builds you up, notices a job well done, or compliments your spiritual growth. Make others feel that way today. Speak well of them and to them. What you say could literally change their lives. Genuine compliments and encouragement make a huge difference in one’s perspective on life.

God’s Promise

Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up. Proverbs 12:25
