Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another (Romans 12:10).
Did you know that what you give to others—the treatment you mete out to them—is actually unto God? That’s what the Bible says: “If you help the poor, you are lending to the LORD—and he will repay you!” (Proverbs 19:17 NLT). So, when you do good things for others, never complain about it; instead, be glad.
Once you complain about the good you’re doing, you destroy the effectiveness of it. Remember what the Bible says: do all things without complaining, and by so doing, you show yourself to be a true child of God without fault, manifesting His light in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation (Philippians 2:14-15).
When you’re kind and affectionate to others, you don’t have to expect anything from them in return, for the Bible says, “of the Lord you shall receive your reward:” “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ” (Colossians 3:23-24).
Everyone who treats people well, turns out to be a success in just a matter of time. Why? Because God treats people well and He’s always on the lookout for those who manifest His character. Remember, He so loved us that He sent His Son, Jesus, to die in our place for our salvation (John 3:16). He looks out for those who identify with Him in saving, blessing and loving others so He can manifest His grace and power in and through them.
Therefore, let His love flow out of you effortlessly. Be genuinely interested in people and be willing to help them. Whenever the opportunity presents itself, offer your assistance. Ask, “May I help you?” and when you’re through, still ask, “Is there anything else I could do for you?” What if they don’t treat you nicely in return? It doesn’t matter!
The Bible says, “Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing” (1 Peter 3:9 NIV). Spread love. Spread life. Spread joy! That’s what Christmas is about. Let others testify that their lives changed for the better because they met you.

|| Ephesians 4:32
And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you. ||
|| Luke 6:27-36
But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, 28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. 29 And unto him that smiteth thee on the [one] cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not [to take thy] coat also. 30 Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask [them] not again. 31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. 32 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them. 33 And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same. 34 And if ye lend [to them] of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again. 35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and [to] the evil. 36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. ||
|| Galatians 6:10
As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all [men], especially unto them who are of the household of faith. ||
|| Matthew 5:44-45
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. ||

DAILY AFFIRMATIONS:
Christ lives in me! I’m the expression of His reality, His grace, glory, kingdom, power and personality! I’m the expression of His fullness; He is my completeness. It makes no difference what challenges I face in life; there’s a force – an empowerment – at work in me to blaze through the barriers. I live in health, prosperity, and excellence. I have no lack in this life because all my needs are met in Christ Jesus. I’m strong in Him and in the power of His might! I am not moved by the prevalent circumstances anywhere in the world. Every day of my life is full of God’s glory, beauty, excellence, and grace. My life is for the glory of God and I experience His goodness and mercies today; my life is one of honour, excellence, praise, glory and thanksgiving to the Lord at all times.
I am like a tree planted by the streams, I’m colorful, thriving, and perpetually productive. I affirm that Christ is alive in me; I experience the magnificent, transcending life of ever-expanding splendor; I live abundantly, healthily, and according to the Lord’s plan. I constantly plot the path to success and victory in life with my words. God wants me to prosper and dwell in health even as my soul prospers. Therefore, my body, my soul, and everything about me conform to this very will of God. I live in God’s deathless zone, walking in the light of His Word. I walk by faith and not by sensory perception, so I refuse anything that tries to contradict what the Word has said concerning me.
My words are loaded with power because I’m filled with the Holy Spirit! The rhema of God that changes things is in my mouth today. In the Name of Jesus, I pronounce health, increase, progress, and prosperity in my life. My organs are invigorated with the life-giving Word of God, and I am alive! I fear no adversary, for Christ has already obtained the victory over every adversary, and my faith in the Word of God is the victory that overcomes the world. The plans of the adversary regarding my health will always come to nothing because I am born of God. God has stamped and certified me as a world-overcomer; therefore, I reign over the world and its systems in Jesus’ Name. Amen. Speak in tongues.
