THE POWER OF COMPASSION (PART 8)

Apst. Emmanuel Osezele

KEY TEXT: Proverbs 31:26 KJV – “She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.”

Compassion is the hallmark of a life that honors God and leaves a lasting legacy. A compassionate believer impacts families, communities, and nations. Every act of mercy, kindness, and love creates a ripple effect that glorifies God and transforms lives. Matthew 25:35-40

Beloved in Christ, when compassion guides your words, actions, and decisions, you demonstrate the love of Christ tangibly. Compassion ensures that your life is remembered for blessing others, lifting the broken, and supporting the weak. Galatians 6:9 encourages us, “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

A life void of compassion leaves emptiness behind, no matter the wealth, status, or knowledge one possesses. But a life led by compassion builds eternal treasures in heaven, impacts generations, and manifests the kingdom of God on earth. Luke 6:36 reminds us to “Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.”

Dear brethren, let us embrace compassion as a divine principle to guide our interactions daily. Let it influence how we pray, give, forgive, teach, and minister. A compassionate heart ensures that our walk with God produces fruit that remains forever.

PRAYER:

Lord Jesus, help me to live a life marked by compassion. Let every thought, word, and action reflect Your mercy and love, leaving a legacy that honors Your name, in Jesus Christ’s mighty name. Amen.

REFLECTION:

Hebrews 13:2 KJV – “Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.”
