*Help Someone Today*

 *Help Someone Today*


 


 _By Prince Eudes_ 


PHILIPPIANS 2:4 NKJ 4 Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.


Every person you see today is a person God loves. (Just like you and me, they probably don't deserve God's love, but He loves them anyway.) God would appreciate you helping them -- on His behalf.


Jesus said that His followers would be known by our love. That has to mean that people will see our love expressed through giving help to others.


JOHN 13:35 NKJ 35 "By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another."


The Holy Spirit is a Helper. When we allow Him to indwell us, we will also become helpers.


JOHN 15:26 NKJ 26 "But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me.


None of us can help everyone. But all of us can help the one in front of us. Even if it is just giving a smile, a word of encouragement, or a helping hand.


Here is an amazing fact: Whatever we do give in helping people, Jesus takes it personally.


MATTHEW 25:40 NKJ 40 "And the King will answer and say to them, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.'


The essence of God's kingdom is unselfish love. Jesus demonstrated this for us perfectly. Acts 10:38 summarizes His life by saying He went about doing good.


When God's love in our hearts is released it will result in us helping someone. That is what the love of God produces.


There is a certain satisfaction in worldly accomplishment. But it never brings deep satisfaction and fulfillment. So many try (in vain) to achieve more and more success and fame and gather more and more material things. But that never brings them what they inwardly crave.


You were created in the image of God, who is love. And until you become more of a giver instead of a taker, you will not be happy.


Selfish accomplishment will never give you the inner joy and fulfillment that you will find in helping others.


You were created in God's image -- to be a blessing -- to be a helper.


If you want to start feeling better, help others. Unselfishly helping those in need will bring you joy.


SAY THIS: My purpose is to help people for God.

How to Discern "Monitoring" Spirits and Overcome Them as Believers

BY PRINCE EUDES What exactly are Monitoring Spirits? Well, they are spiritual beings that operate in the supernatural realm, with the not-so-friendly task of observing and monitoring the lives of individuals. Their main goal is to gather information, take notes, and report back to the forces of darkness, seeking any vulnerability they can exploit in our lives. It's like they're running some kind of spiritual surveillance mission! Now, you might be wondering if this idea of monitoring spirits is biblical. You bet it is! The Bible sheds light on these malevolent beings in various passages, and it's essential to understand what it says about them to be equipped to deal with their influence. In the book of Job [ Job 1:7 ], we find an intriguing scene where the sons of God come to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also comes among them. The Lord Himself asks Satan if he has considered His faithful servant Job. This implies that there are spiritual beings constantly o...

Do All Things Work Together For Good?

Do All Things Work Together For Good? By Prince Eudes Do All Things Work Together For Good? Many Christians would instantly say "Yes!" And a quick look at Romans 8:28 in many Bible translations seems to confirm their answer. But is that what Romans 8:28 really means? ROMANS 8:28 NASB 28 And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. ROMANS 8:28 NIV 28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love⁶  him, who have been called according to his purpose. While several translations can give us a different view on this (like both of those above), it is not necessary for us to judge translations or learn the meaning of Greek words to realize some basic facts. First, if everything that happened was good for us, then God would never tell us to resist or refrain from anything. (And He does!) Therefore, everything is not God's will for us. Neither can we consider every...

God Rules in Your Circumstances

God Rules in Your Circumstances God's light often shines brightest through us in our darkest moments. November 12, 2023 Philippians 1:12-20 If you could change your present circumstances, would you? Most of us would say yes. Even if we’re experiencing relatively peaceful and comfortable conditions, we can always imagine a better life. And those of us enduring difficult, painful, or trying situations long to see the burden lifted. But as everyone knows, there are some circumstances over which we have no control. We can’t maneuver our way out, so our only option is to go through them. As redeemed children of God, however, it’s important to remember this: We are exactly where God wants us, because His sovereignty rules over all our situations at all times. Let’s look at Paul. He was sitting in a Roman prison, chained to a guard after a fruitful ministry of sharing the gospel. But even though the Lord brought him into difficult circumstances, His work in and through Paul didn’t stop. A...
