Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another (NIV) Hebrews 10:25aI myself am convinced, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, complete in knowledge and competent to instruct one another. (Romans 15:14)
Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, (Ephesians 5:19)
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. (Colossians 3:16)
Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another- - and all the more as you see the Day approaching. (Hebrews 10:25a)
Hebrews 10:24 says: “and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds.” The Greek text literally translates: “let us consider one another to stimulate (incite, promote) to love and good works.” The word “consider” is the Greek word “katanoeo” which means “to consider attentively, to perceive, to observe.” The author of Hebrews is calling us to take notice or pay attention to people so that we might better understand each other’s needs and pain. That way we can minister to those needs with a listening ear, an open caring heart, an encouraging word, and loving actions. But, to be able to do this we need to come together with one another.
How about you? Are you coming together with other Christians to stimulate other towards love and good deeds?
God wants to use you in a powerful way to expand His Kingdom
