Do not be the reason for others to shed tears

 "They cried out, and the LORD heard them; he delivered them from all their troubles. Psalm 34:17" 


Our God is a God of compassion and love for His people; He is our Father. Just as a parent has compassion for their children, so does God have compassion for us. The nature of any parent, when they hear their child crying, is to go to them and find out why they are crying. And God does the same.

This scripture says, "They cried out." In other places, it says they cried out to God, but here it simply says "they cried out." Whenever any human encounters a problem that causes them pain to the point of tears, God must come to see why a person he created is crying.

The important thing I want to tell you today is; "Do not be the reason someone cries." Do not be the cause of trouble in other people's lives. Our scripture says God hears the cries of His people. God is a just God and has great power to look into the matters of His children and grant justice where He sees oppression.

In the book of Hebrews 10:31, the Word of God says, "It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God." When you are the reason people cry, you already become an enemy of God because you are oppressing the people He created. No tear falls because of oppression that God will not respond to.

There are people whose suffering in life is due to the tears of others. Indeed, they pray to God, but a great judgment stands against them due to the wrongs they have done to others.

Finally, perhaps you are someone who has been oppressed by others and the troubles of this world have caused you to cry every day. I want to assure you that God is faithful and will deliver you from your troubles. The person who oppresses and mistreats you will not do so forever. God has heard your cry and will save you.

Prayer: Oh Lord, I ask for Your mercy for causing pain to others and made them cry. I pray for your divine wisdom to love my fellows and to live with love and peace with everyone. Amen.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

DO NOT COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS

  "I know what it is to be poor or to have plenty, and I have lived under all kinds of conditions. I know what it means to be full or to be hungry, to have too much or too little. Philippians 4:12 CEV" God’s purpose for humankind is for everyone to succeed, but each person has their own season. Just as each flower blooms in its own time, each of us has a time set by God. When that season comes, God will make you prosper. Until then, keep praying and working hard, trusting in His timing. When you look at your peers, former classmates, family members, or others in your age group and see their success, it’s easy to start comparing. Maybe a friend just built a new house or got a high-paying job, or perhaps someone you know is getting married. If you feel like you’ve achieved more, you may feel good about yourself. But if you feel like you’re still “behind,” it’s easy to feel discouraged and inadequate. This is where your perspective can become distorted. Some people think they ar...
