Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional July 27, 2026 Monday MessageTOPIC:Go Beyond Words and Help Others
But if anyone has this world’s goods (resources for sustaining life) and sees his brother and fellow believer in need, yet closes his heart of compassion against him, how can the love of God live and remain in him? — 1 John 3:17 (AMPC)
We are all different, and we each have different needs. I urge you to go the extra mile and begin to truly listen to what people tell you about their needs, being ready to help them. Because sometimes we give people what is easy for us to give, but we are still not meeting their need.
Perhaps you can easily give people words of encouragement, so you tend to encourage everyone. This is good because everyone needs some words of encouragement, but you might be giving those words to people who really need you to see that, more than words of encouragement, they need practical help in some way.
They may be three months behind on the rent and instead of simply encouraging them to believe God will provide, they need you to help them pay the rent. If you are not able to help financially, that is understandable, but it is good to at least consider doing something extra to go along with your words when the situation calls for more action.
PRAYER OF THE DAY: God, help me truly see the needs of others. Teach me to love people through both encouraging words and meaningful action, amen.
