EDIFY
ONE ANOTHER
Therefore
comfort each other and edify one another,just as you also are
doing.
1 Thessalonians 5:11 [NKJV]
A
"One Anothering" Thought
Edify
means:
- to instruct
- to uplift
- to encourage
When I hear the word "Edify" I think of "building up". We believers
should be instructing one another spiritually in a way that will build up our faith We should be spiritually uplifting each other to greater heights in the Lord.
We should be encouraging one another to
grow spiritually so we can all be fruitful for the Lord.
We should be building one another up and
strengthening one another intellectually and
spiritually as we interact with one another daily.
ONE-ANOTHERING IN ACTION:
As the
Lord gives you opportunity, edify your brothers and sisters in the
Lord by sharing things you have learned from the scriptures or by
building up their faith when they are down.
Besides times at
church services, cards, letters, notes, phone calls, emails, or
visits are all good ways to connect and edify one another.
As
you and others practice one anothering your church body will
grow stronger and be more united in love.
Therefore let us
pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which
one may edify another. Romans 14:19 [NLT]
