BE GOOD TO PEOPLE

BE GOOD TO PEOPLE

Main Text: Romans 12:10 – Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honour.

Ephesians 4:32 – Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ has also forgiven you.

Goodness is the desire of every living creature; we wish and pray that people will extend hands of goodness towards us. There is an adage that “every good thing you desire and want, that you should also wish those things for your neighbor.” We are to extend hands of goodness to others too. If God has placed you in any position of authority, see it to be the position of service and help. It is only when we have such understanding that we can do what God expects us to do properly. Do not be selective in extending goodness to people. Be good to all that come around you. We must never be like those who serve satan and carry out wickedness everywhere we go. It is a grievous sin to be wicked to your fellow man.

There are those people who only rejoice when others fail and they are always busy plotting the disgrace of another. Such people have no place in Heaven. Being good to people involves devotion as the scripture says. Decide to help people, work it out in helping people and sacrifice to ensure that they are joyful. Showing kindness rewards; God will always reward you because in your areas of weakness, God will qualify you in order to bless you. To actually show goodness, we must be peaceful, loving not bearing grudges or counting faults and we must have the heart that forgives easily.

BE DEVOTED IN PUTTING SMILES ON PEOPLE.S FACE

Prayer Point: In Jesus name, as I show people kindness, let the angel of goodness and mercy follow me and work for me.
