A LIFE INVESTMENT....(2)
*WISDOM FOR TODAY.*
*A LIFE INVESTMENT....(2)*
*Scripture Treasure.*
Job 2:11 *Now when Job's three friends--Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite--heard about all this adversity that had come upon him, each of them came from his home, and they met together to go and sympathize with Job and comfort him.*
*Insight and Highlight.*
Though Job's three friends eventually became miserable in their advice, each of them left *".....his home, and they met together to go and sympathize with Job and comfort him."*
*Scripture Commentaries.*
Timeliness is key when help is required.
To postpone can be costly, especially when we have all it takes to deliver the succor the help seeker requires.
Proverbs 3:28 *Do not say to your neighbor, “Come back tomorrow, and I’ll give it to you"— when you already have it with you.*
If you come to someone who has fully recovered from his Golgotha, you may have come too late.
It will come to his time to celebrate, and when you come to someone when he is celebrating when you ought to be there when he is crying, you may have come too late. His tears started a long time ago before his celebration.
Their journey started when they were in pain, and they most needed you, not when the celebration started.
Many of us prefer to celebrate with people rather than go through tears with people, ref Eccl 7:2.
Everyone has a Golgotha. This is to say: a place where pain and agony are felt all by oneself.
The problem people who neglect others in their Golgotha is that they often soon forget, but the one neglected at his Golgotha always remembers.
Remember, God picks people up from their dunghills and make princes of them, 1 Sam 2:8.
When this neglected person becomes a prince, you may say, "l remember you, but he may say,"l do not remember you. "
This person has become a prince today because God of mercy picked him up from their low ebbs.
Be part of the move of God.
Be a vessel that will invest in someone's life today.
*Remorse corner.*
The forsaken are assured that God will take them up. It can not be so bad that God will not send at least a person to help you.
He works through the children of men.
*Call to Word action.*
Psalm 27:10 *When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up.*
*The Christian clarion duty.*
It is a Kingdom privilege to be a vessel to comfort and help others.
*Prayer.*
Lord use me to bring joy to someone's life and home in Jesus name.
Good morning all, and have a blessed day today.
God bless you.
