NURTURING THE EXCEPTIONAL QUALITIES IN OTHERS

Philippians  2:3-4 says “Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.” In nurturing the exceptional qualities resident in others, we are reminded of how essential it is to help others grow, achieve their goals, and live more fulfilling lives. When we take the time to encourage others in ways that help in strengthening their deterministic abilities while sharing insights which makes them to confidently develop their talents and that of those around us, we not only empower them but also create a stronger and more productive community.


One of the most essential aspects of nurturing the exceptional qualities resident in others is to focus on what these people are already good at, especially when it is in consonance with the Will of God, and helping in making them enjoy doing them. For instance, if someone is talented or gifted in creative writing or artistic drawing, it is up to us to help such an individual recognize the profitability of that talent and encourage them to develop it further in order to enable him/her benefit from its prospects. This may involve offering support and guidance, even if it means sacrificing our own time and resources to help the person succeed. Doing this is in accordance with the injunction of God in Ecclesiastes  9:10 which says “Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest”. Additionally, we can help by providing feedbacks that are constructive and designed to help them improve. This means focusing on areas where they can grow and providing specific suggestions on how to get to the peak while emphasizing techniques for achieving greatness.


Another critical component for nurturing the exceptional qualities in others is providing them with opportunities to showcase their talents. This can be done in a variety of ways, such as through volunteering to present their works to relevant government agencies charged with the responsibility of promoting such skill, encouraging them to participate in local events, or even posting to make their contents visible online. Whatever the form adopted, the aim must be to help the individual gain exposure and boost their confidence in the inherent qualities that God has deposited in them as they share their gifts with the world. It is also important to note that in nurturing exceptional qualities, we must ensure that we communicate our support and motivation to keep their minds from straying to negative and disadvantageous zones and concepts that will plague them from reaching the desired peak. This need to be done consistently. It may require patience, persistence and the willingness to invest time and energy into bringing out the best in others.


Finally, we must also recognize that nurturing the exceptional qualities in others is not just beneficial to them but also to ourselves and the wider community. When we support others in their growth, we build stronger relationships, foster a sense of belonging, and create a more positive and vibrant environment for all while glorifying God in it.


In conclusion, nurturing the exceptional qualities resident in others is a powerful technique that help people achieve their goals, grow, and live more fulfilling lives. By focusing on what people are already good at, providing constructive feedbacks, offering them opportunities to showcase their talents, and being patient with them while persistently encouraging them about the greater prospect available in future, we can empower those around us to become their best version of themselves. In doing so, we create a stronger and more supportive community, where everyone has the chance to shine and thrive. As you commit to pragmatically deploying this innovative idea into your daily activities, the Almighty God will not fail to bless you, in Jesus Name, Amen.

DO NOT DEPAIR

Having found out whom God is... DO NOT DESPAIR TEXT: PSALM 13:1-6 Key verse: “How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?” (Psalm 13:1) . Life throws up new challenges every day. This often makes the believer begin to think that God had abandoned him. Except he rouses himself up, he would become discouraged and lose all hope that help would ever come to him. David got to that point many times in his numerous battles in life. He probably prayed and fasted for long periods, but the onslaught of the enemy did not end. He was running out of options, hence he spoke in desperation to God. He seemed to conclude that He had forsaken him and wondered how long God would hide himself, and how long he was going to be abandoned to himself, getting ever more sorrowful daily. He was troubled that the enemy seemed to be triumphing over him; ...

NO SHORTCUT

If it is to be done aright, be rest assured that there is... NO SHORTCUT BELIEVERS' DIGEST PUBLICATION Bible Reading: 1 KINGS 15:16-24 Key Verse: “There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent unto thee a present of silver and gold; come and break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me” (1 Kings 15:19). Men always seek shortcut to success in life. Rather than live by God’s righteous standard, they seek to achieve success by any means possible. They justify their action by arguing that the end does indeed justify the means. This is despite their moral failings and character flaws, all of which contravene God’s expectations from His children. Such was the beginning of the end for King Asa, who had begun well to rule Judah and had introduced gr...

A GEM OF SPECTACULAR INFLUENCE

WINNERS' INTEREST PUBLICATION A GEM OF SPECTACULAR INFLUENCE Bible Reading: 1 Samuel 3:19-21 (KJV) Key Verse: “And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground” (1 Samuel 3:19). The world, in which we live today is filled with corrupting influences. This forms the basis of God's call to His people to rise as rare treasures of purity and power. A “Gem of Spectacular Influence” is not an ordinary person. It describes a believer whose life carries unique, enduring value that transcends fleeting worldly trends. Like a precious gem that retains its brilliance even in darkness, such a life reflects resolute determination to pursue excellence in glorifying God, undimmed by surrounding negativity. The story of Samuel powerfully illustrates this truth. Raised in the tabernacle at Shiloh under the aged priest Eli, Samuel was surrounded by evil practices. Eli’s sons, Hophni and Phinehas, were notorious for ...
