Proverbs 25:11-A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.

Encourage one another! This is the call today to all believers.

If there ever was at time when people need encouragement, the time is now.

We live in a world where people can be very cruel in the hateful, disrespectful and painful words that comes out of their mouth to others or concerning others.

Our text reminds us that like apples of gold in settings of silver Is a word spoken in right circumstances.

Words are important, that is why we must make it a habit of choosing the right words in our communication with others. Our words can either tear down or build up.

God is calling His people to build one another up. To come together as a unified body in building up one another and building up others who are in need of being lifted up out of the mindset of hopelessness and defeat.

Proverbs 15:1-A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. Proverbs 16:24-Kind words are like honey--sweet to the soul and healthy for the body.

Believe it or not, but we encounter people everyday that are silently hurting. They are discouraged and could use a word of comfort or an act of kindness.

What are we speaking? Does it lift up and encourage or tear down and discourage?

Are you making it a habit to encourage others or discourage them? What is your motive concerning your fellowman?

1 Thessalonians 5:11-Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.

Let us all pray today that God would grant us the wisdom needed to speak words that are “fitly spoken” in hopes of building up and encouraging one another.

God bless you all.
