Seeds Of Destiny Devotional – The Golden Rule

Dunamis Seeds Of Destiny 27 October 2024 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche: The Golden Rule

TOPIC: The Golden Rule (Seeds Of Destiny 27 October 2024)

SCRIPTURE: Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. – Matthew 7:12

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Treat others the way you would want to be treated.

MESSAGE:

It has been established that having a heart for others is a proof of love. You don’t have love until you have a heart for other people.

Now, what does it mean to have a heart for others? Having a heart for others entails what is called the golden rule. That is doing for and with others what we expect others to do for and with us. It means treating others the way we expect them to treat us. It is giving people respect the way we expect others to respect us. It is talking to people the way we want them to talk to us.

It is important to consider people the way we want people to consider us.

Sometime ago, in one of our church workforce meetings, I asked our church workers that if they travelled to America, England or any other part of the world, and decided to attend a church there as first timers, how would they love to be welcomed into that church? I told them that is the same way, they should welcome people in our church.

It was Zig Ziglar who once said, “You can get anywhere in life if you can assist as many people as possible get to where they want.”

This is the truth: the fastest way to get anywhere in life is to assist people get to where they want to get to in life. Life is a seed; it is what you sow in people that you will reap in your own life. When you develop a heart for others, people will also develop a heart for you. If you don’t want anyone to talk to you the way you talk to people, then adjust the way you address people. If you talk to people harshly, you would also receive harsh words from people.

If you want to be respected, then respect people also. Treat others the way you would want to be treated.

Remember this: Treat others the way you would want to be treated.

ASSIGNMENTS:

1. Make up your mind never to neglect the people around you.
2. Sow the seed of love, kindness and benevolence in the lives of people; do with people what you expect in return.

PRAYER: Father, I receive the grace to be kind, loving, respectful and loving towards the people around me. Deliver me from every form of arrogance, selfishness and self-centredness, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
