Your Ministry of Appreciation
“Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.”
Ephesians 4:29 (NIV)
Radical gratitude means you’re going to walk through life being grateful in every situation, no matter what—in times of plenty, when times are tight, when times are good, bad, right, wrong, whatever. You can develop an attitude of gratitude by choosing to be grateful in every situation. The attitude of radical gratitude actually serves others; it becomes a ministry.
Have you realized that every believer is a minister? You are a minister! Because every Christian is a minister, that means you should be serving other people. In fact, you’re saved to serve. And one ministry you can develop is the ministry of appreciation.
Do you know what the word “appreciation” means? If you’ve ever bought a car, you know the meaning of depreciation. The moment you drive it off the lot, it’s worth less than you paid for it, even if it’s a brand-new vehicle. Depreciation means “to decrease in value.” Appreciation is the opposite. It means “to increase in value.”
When you appreciate your husband, you raise his value. When you appreciate your wife, you raise her value. When you appreciate your kids, you raise their value. When you appreciate your co-workers, you raise their value to you and to the company. When you appreciate your boss, you raise his or her value.
The ministry of appreciation raises the value of people. As you develop radical gratitude, you can make a ministry out of raising the value of people simply by appreciating them.
The Bible says it like this: “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.” Ephesians 4:29 (NIV)
One of the things I’ve discovered is that everyone needs massive doses of encouragement. I’ve never met anybody who’s said, “Oh no! I don’t need a compliment! I have too many. Please, stop! I’m too affirmed. Don’t give me anymore.”
You have an unqualified need to be affirmed, to be loved, to be appreciated—and so does everybody else. If you want to be used by God, here’s one way: Affirm everyone. Appreciate everyone. Show gratitude to everyone.
That’s how you develop a ministry of appreciation.

Siete Características de la Misericordia – Parte 2
“Sean ustedes misericordiosos, así como su Padre es misericordioso”. Lucas 6:36 (NBLA)
Ayer vimos las primeras tres facetas de la misericordia. Hoy continuaremos viendo como ser un agente de misericordia para transformar tus relaciones:
Misericordia significa hacer el bien a los que te hagan daño.Misericordia es dar a la gente lo que necesitan, no lo que se merecen. ¿Por qué debemos hacerlo? Porque eso es lo que Dios hace con nosotros: “Ustedes deben amar a sus enemigos, hacer el bien y dar prestado, sin esperar nada a cambio. Grande será entonces el galardón que recibirán, y serán hijos del Altísimo. Porque él es benigno con los ingratos y con los malvados. Por lo tanto, sean compasivos, como también su Padre es compasivo” Lucas 6:35-36 (RVC).Misericordia significa ser amable con los que te ofenden.
Tienes que estar más interesados en ganar personas para Cristo en vez de querer ganar una discusión. Judas 1:22-23 dice: “Tengan misericordia de algunos que dudan.A otros, sálvenlos, arrebatándolos del fuego; y de otros tengan misericordia con temor, aborreciendo aun la ropa contaminada por la carne” (NBLA).La misericordia significa construir puentes de amor hacia los que no son aceptados.
Esto es lo que yo llamo la misericordia premeditada, porque intencionadamente construyes amistades con personas que no tienen amigos o que no son aceptados en el trabajo o en la sociedad. Cuando los fariseos cuestionaron a Jesús porque comió con publicanos y otras personas indeseables, Jesús dijo: “ ‘Misericordia quiero, y no sacrificio’. Porque no he venido a llamar a los justos al arrepentimiento, sino a los pecadores” Mateo 9:13 (RVC).Misericordia significa valorar las relaciones más que las reglas.
Romanos 13:10 dice: “el amor cumple con las exigencias de la ley de Dios” (NTV). Si quieres mostrar misericordia, debes poner a las personas antes que las políticas. Pon sus necesidades antes que los procedimientos. Pon las relaciones antes de los reglamentos. Elige el amor sobre la ley.
Reflexiona sobre esto :
Si la misericordia significa valorarlas relaciones sobre las reglas, ¿qué necesitas cambiar sobre la forma de interactuar con tus compañeros de trabajo? ¿Qué pasa con tus hijos?En el clima cultural de hoy, ¿por qué es a menudo más fácil estar interesados en ganar la discusión que en ganar gente paraCristo?¿De qué manera práctica podemos amar a nuestros enemigos? ¿Darles lo que necesitan no lo que merecen?Síguenos en Instagram & Facebook
Si todavía no has confiado en Jesús y no te has comprometido a seguirlo, ¿por qué esperar más? Si estás listo para cruzar esa línea y tomar la decisión de creer en Jesucristo y seguirlo; haz esta oración .

I Will Be Joyful In God My Savior
“Sink your roots in him and build on him. Be strengthened by the faith that you were taught, and overflow with thanksgiving.”
Colossians 2:7 (GW)
An attitude of radical gratitude is God’s will for you because it develops your faith.
How does gratitude develop your faith? It happens when times are tough—when things don’t make sense, when you can’t figure it out, when your prayers are unanswered, when everything is going the way you didn’t want it to go. It happens when you can say in those circumstances, “God, I know you’re in control. I know you love me, and I know you can bring good out of this. I’m thankful that you’re bigger than my problem.”
Anybody can thank God for good things. But if you can thank God even in the bad times, your faith will grow stronger as your roots go deeper.
Habakkuk was going through tough times. He said, “Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior” (Habakkuk 3:17-18 NIV).
In the midst of all the bad things that went wrong, Habakkuk rejoiced. What caused his gratitude? He decided to find joy in God: “I will be joyful in God my Savior.”
When everything else stinks in life, you can be grateful because the Lord is your Savior. He will pull you out. You are not alone. He hasn’t abandoned you. Give thanks to God!
Can you thank God when life stinks? That is the ultimate test of the depth of your faith. When you’re going through tough times, don’t look at what’s lost. Look at what’s left—and be grateful for it!
You can be thankful to God just for who he is. He has promised to see you through those tough situations, and your faith will grow even stronger because of it.
Colossians 2:7 says, “Sink your roots in him and build on him. Be strengthened by the faith that you were taught, and overflow with thanksgiving” (GW).
God’s will for you is radical gratitude—giving thanks in all things. Radical gratitude honors God, creates fellowship, and develops your faith.

Siete Características de la Misericordia – Parte 1
“La sabiduría de lo alto es primeramente pura, después pacífica, amable, condescendiente, llena de misericordia”. Santiago 3:17a (LBLA)
La misericordia es como un diamante; es multifacética. Hoy vamos a mirar las primeras tres facetas de la misericordia:
Misericordia significa ser paciente con las peculiaridades de las personas.¿Cómo obtienes más paciencia para tus hijos, cónyuge, o amigos? La Biblia dice en Santiago 3:17, “la sabiduría de lo alto es primeramente pura, después pacífica, amable, condescendiente, llena de misericordia” (LBLA). Mientras más sabio seas, más paciente y misericordioso te vuelves.Misericordia significa ayudar a quien esté a tu alrededor y esté herido.
No puedes amar a tu prójimo como a ti mismo sin ser Proverbios 3:27 dice: “No niegues un favor a quien te lo pida, si en tu mano está el otorgarlo” (NVI). Dios no solo está observando lo que haces, Él está mirando tu actitud: “el que muestra misericordia, con alegría” Romanos 12:8 (LBLA). Misericordia significa darle a la gente una segunda oportunidad.
Cuando alguien nos hace daño, normalmente queremos vengarnos o incluso ponerlos fuera de acción. Pero la Biblia dice: “Desechen todo lo que sea amargura, enojo, ira, gritería, calumnias, y todo tipo de maldad. En vez de eso, sean bondadosos y misericordiosos, y perdónense unos a otros, así como también Dios los perdonó a ustedes en Cristo” Efesios 4:31-32 (RVC).
Mañana veremos las otras 4 facetas, porque te garantizo que aprenderás cómo ser un agente de misericordia, para transformar tus relaciones.
Reflexiona sobre esto :
¿Cómo puedes ser más sabio para tener más paciencia con las personas a tu alrededor?¿Cómo puedes ser intencional esta semana al trata de mostrar misericordia ala gente a tu alrededor que está herida?¿Alguna vez te han dado una segunda oportunidad o tú has dado una segunda oportunidad a alguien? ¿Cómo ofreciste o recibiste misericordia?Síguenos en Instagram & Facebook
Si todavía no has confiado en Jesús y no te has comprometido a seguirlo, ¿por qué esperar más? Si estás listo para cruzar esa línea y tomar la decisión de creer en Jesucristo y seguirlo; haz esta oración .

Thank God for Who He Is
“Giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me.”
Psalm 50:23 (NLT)
Anytime you thank someone, you honor that person.
For example, if I say to my wife, “Honey, I’m so grateful for that great Thanksgiving dinner you made,” I just honored my wife. When I say to her mom, “I want to thank you for having Kay so I could marry her,” I am honoring her mom. When I say to someone, “Thank you for opening the door for me” or “Thank you for coming to the service,” I am honoring that person.
An expression of gratitude is a way of honoring another person.
The Bible says that you also honor God when you express gratitude to him. God says this in Psalm 50: “Giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me” (Psalm 50:23 NLT).
How is giving thanks a sacrifice? It takes time to think of things to be grateful for. So when you give thanks, you are sacrificing your time.
When my wife does something thoughtful for me, she likes me to say, “Thank you.” But if that’s all I ever did, she’d begin to wonder, “Does he really love me, or does he just love me for the things I do for him?”
At some point, I have to start moving to a higher level of thanksgiving—which is not just thanking my wife for what she does but thanking her for who she is. That’s a deeper, more mature kind of thanksgiving.
If the only time your kids thanked you was when you gave them their allowance, you’d begin to wonder, “Do they love me, or do they just love the money?”
If all you do is thank God for letting you get into this class or for giving you this food or for all the things he does for you, it’s worth asking yourself, “Do I really love God, or do I just love the things that God does for me?”
You must learn to thank God not just for what he does but for who he is.
When you thank God for who he is, your prayer might go something like this: “God, thank you that your wisdom is greater than mine. Thank you that you know what will make me happy more than I do. Thank you that you’re consistent when I’m inconsistent. Thank you for your love and your mercy, and that you’re always fair. Thank you that even when I don’t understand something, you have my best interest at heart.”
That kind of gratitude goes beyond “Thank you, God, for our food” to “Thank you, God, for who you are.” And it’s the kind of gratitude that honors God and gives you deeper spiritual roots.

Many studies have shown that gratitude is the healthiest human emotion. Why do you think this is so?
How does radical gratitude help you grow closer to Jesus?
Every day this week, start the day by thinking of 10 things to thank God for. At the end of week, examine how this has affected your attitude and impacted each day.
Are you ready to start a new life with Christ?
We can thank God for the precious gift of his Son, Jesus Christ: “It is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9 NIV).
If you’re ready to surrender your life to Jesus Christ, start by praying this simple prayer: “Dear God, I know I’m a sinner, and I ask for your forgiveness. I believe Jesus Christ is your Son. I believe that he died for my sins and that you raised him to life. I want to trust him as my Savior and follow him as Lord from this day forward. Guide my life and help me to do your will. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.”
If you just prayed to accept Jesus, please email me at Rick@PastorRick.com and let me know about it. I’d like to send you some free materials to help you start your journey with Jesus.

Cuatro Razones por las que Dios espera que Seas Misericordioso
“Bienaventurados los misericordiosos, porque ellos serán tratados con misericordia”. Mateo 5:7 (RVC)
Jesús dice en Mateo 5:7, “Bienaventurados los misericordiosos, pues ellos recibirán misericordia” (RVC).
En otras palabras, lo que des, vas a recibir. Tienes que aprender a ser un ministro de la misericordia si quieres recibir la bendición de Dios en tu vida.
Pero ¿Por qué Dios espera que muestres misericordia a los demás? ¿Por qué tienes que ser misericordioso?
Porque Dios te ha mostrado misericordia.Efesios 2:4-5 dice, “Pero Dios, que es rico en misericordia, por su gran amor por nosotros, nos dio vida con Cristo, aun cuando estábamos muertos en pecados. ¡Por gracia ustedes han sido salvados!” (NVI). Dios quiere que pases a otros la misericordia que has recibido de Él.Porque Dios ordena que seas misericordioso.
¿Quieres un resumen acerca de lo que es la vida? Aquí está: “Ya se te ha declarado lo que es bueno. Ya se te ha dicho lo que de ti espera el Señor; Practicar la justicia, amar la misericordia y humillarte ante tu Dios” Miqueas 6:8 (NVI).Porque vas a necesitar más misericordia en el futuro.
Antes de tu día para ir al Cielo vas a cometer muchos errores, y vas a necesitar la misericordia de Dios. Pero tú no puedes recibir lo que tú no estás dispuesto a dar. Santiago 2:13 dice: “Porque el juicio será sin misericordia para el que no ha mostrado misericordia; la misericordia triunfa sobre el juicio” (LBLA).Porque mostrar misericordia trae o es causa de felicidad.
Mateo 5:7 dice que Dios bendice aquellos que son misericordiosos. La palabra “bendito” también significa “feliz” por lo tanto, cuanto más aprendas y demuestres esta virtud, más bendecido y feliz vas a ser.
Reflexiona sobre esto :
¿Qué significa “amar la misericordia”?¿Cómo has visto la bendición de Dios cuando has tomado una decisión difícil pero correcta para mostrar misericordia a alguien?Piensa alguna forma en que podrías haber mostrado misericordia a los demás en la última semana. ¿Cómo crees que podría haber cambiado el desenlace de la situación?Síguenos en Instagram & Facebook
Si todavía no has confiado en Jesús y no te has comprometido a seguirlo, ¿por qué esperar más? Si estás listo para cruzar esa línea y tomar la decisión de creer en Jesucristo y seguirlo; haz esta oración .

What Does It Mean to Have Radical Gratitude?
“Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
1 Thessalonians 5:18 (NIV)
The more deeply you understand God’s love, the more grateful you will become.
In fact, the Bible says that gratitude should saturate your life: “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 5:18 NIV).
Notice that the Bible says to give thanks in all circumstances, not for all circumstances. There is a big difference!
You don’t have to be thankful for the bad things that happen in your life. Not everything that happens in the world is God’s will. In fact, most of the time, God’s will is not done here on Earth; instead, people’s will is done.
There’s a lot of evil in the world, and you don’t need to thank God for that. But you can thank God in the midst of it.
In my own life, I’ve learned that I can thank God in every circumstance. Here are some reasons why:
God is in control.God can bring good out of evil.God can turn even my mistakes into something that works out well; he can bring good out of them.I won’t live on Earth forever; I’m going to heaven one day.I can’t lose my salvation.No matter what happens, God isn’t going to stop loving me.The truth is that I could think of a hundred reasons to be thankful in any circumstance, even circumstances that seem horrible.
Look again at 1 Thessalonians 5:18 (NIV). It says you should give thanks to God “in all circumstances.” The Greek word used is the word pos, which means any, all, everything, anyone, all the time, anywhere, everywhere, the whole thing. It means no exception, no excuses, no exemptions.
That seems pretty radical, doesn’t it? That’s why it’s radical gratitude.
It doesn’t take any effort to be grateful for the nice present someone just gave you. Anyone can do that. But being grateful in all circumstances takes radical gratitude.
People say they want to know God’s will. They want to know what God wants them to do with their lives. In 1 Thessalonians 5:18, God makes that very clear: “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus” (NIV).
Giving thanks in all situations is God’s will for you. And the more thankful you are, the closer you’ll get to God!

What promise from the Bible can you memorize to help you remember how to thank God, even in difficult circumstances? Write it on a card and put it somewhere that you’ll see if often.
When you see other people exhibit radical gratitude in difficult circumstances, how does that affect you?
Why is it God’s will for you to practice radical gratitude “in all circumstances”? How does that habit affect other areas of your life?
Are you ready to start a new life with Christ?
The Bible says you can get to heaven only by trusting in God’s Son, Jesus Christ: “It is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9 NIV).
If you’re ready to surrender your life to Jesus Christ, start by praying this simple prayer: “Dear God, I know I’m a sinner, and I ask for your forgiveness. I believe Jesus Christ is your Son. I believe that he died for my sins and that you raised him to life. I want to trust him as my Savior and follow him as Lord from this day forward. Guide my life and help me to do your will.

¿Cómo está tu Apetito Espiritual?
“Deseen con ganas la leche espiritual pura para que crezcan a una experiencia plena de la salvación. Pidan a gritos ese alimento nutritivo”. 1 Pedro 2:2 (NTV)
¿Tienes hambre de Dios?
Es posible mantener un hambre espiritual de Dios por el resto de tu vida. Aquí se presentan cinco formas de mantener el apetito espiritual.
Recuerda cuánto Dios te ama.Al crecer tu comprensión de cuánto Dios te ama, más le amarás. La Biblia dice en Efesios 3:18-19, “Espero que puedan comprender… cuán ancho, cuán largo, cuán alto y cuán profundo es su amor.Es mi deseo que experimenten el amor de Cristo, aun cuando es demasiado grande para comprenderlo todo. Entonces serán completos con toda la plenitud de la vida y el poder que proviene de Dios” (NTV).Deja de llenarte con comida rápida.
Eres un ser espiritual con un agujero en forma de Dios en tu corazón que sólo Dios puede llenar. Cuando intentas llenarlo con un salario, un estatus, el éxito, la pasión, las posesiones, el poder, el prestigio o cualquier otra cosa que no sea Dios, no te va a satisfacer. Proverbios 15:14 dice, “El sabio tiene hambre de conocimiento, mientras que el necio se alimenta de basura” (NTV).Que tu meta número uno sea conocer a Dios.
La felicidad es un subproducto de conocer a Dios. Jesús dice en Mateo 6:33, “Busquen el reino de Dios por encima de todo lo demás y lleven una vida justa, y él les dará todo lo que necesiten” (NTV).Lee diariamente la Palabra de Dios.
La Biblia es alimento para tu alma. El comer una sola comida a la semana no te mantendrá saludable. De la misma manera, necesitas alimentarte de la Palabra de Dios cada día. “Deseen con ganas la leche espiritual pura para que crezcan a una experiencia plena de la salvación. Pidan a gritos ese alimento nutritivo” 1 Pedro 2:2 (NTV).El apetito es influenciado por asociación.
Si te relacionas con personas a las que solamente les interesa la política, eso es todo lo que te va a interesar. Si te relacionas con personas a las que solamente les interesa los deportes, eso es todo lo que te va a interesar.
Únete a un grupo pequeño para tener apoyo, porque de todo aquello de lo que se habla cuando estás con otros, es de lo que tendrás hambre. Proverbios 2:20 dice, “Por lo tanto, sigue los pasos de los buenos y permanece en los caminos de los justos” (NTV).
Reflexiona sobre esto :
¿Qué significa tener hambre de Dios?¿Cómo puedes recordarte a ti mismo el amor de Dios durante el día?¿De qué cosas hablas más con tus amigos? ¿Con tu cónyuge? ¿De qué manera tus conversaciones están alimentando tu apetito espiritual?Síguenos en Instagram & Facebook
Si todavía no has confiado en Jesús y no te has comprometido a seguirlo, ¿por qué esperar más? Si estás listo para cruzar esa línea y tomar la decisión de creer en Jesucristo y seguirlo; haz esta oración .

Don’t Just Hope You’ll Go to Heaven
“And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.”
1 John 5:11-12 (NIV)
If you went to a shopping mall today and asked people if they were going to heaven or hell, you’d likely hear many of them say, “I hope I’ll go to heaven.”
But hope just isn’t good enough. I pray that’s not your answer. Your eternal destiny is too important not to know for sure.
You’re not guaranteed another minute on this planet, much less another hour. The most recent statistics show that mortality rates in the world remain 100 percent! Death is inevitable—so it’s foolish not to be prepared. Don’t put off the most important choice you’ll ever make.
The Bible says in 1 John 5:11-12, “And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life” (NIV).
That’s about as clear as you can get. If you have Jesus, you have life. If you don’t have Jesus, you do not have life. You have a choice.
You won’t go to heaven because of someone else’s faith. You’ll never go to hell because of someone else’s choice.
It’s your choice! You get to decide where you’ll spend eternity.
This is why we celebrate Christmas and Easter. If Jesus hadn’t come at Christmas—and then if he hadn’t died and come back to life on Easter—our situation would be hopeless. Nothing you do would matter. You wouldn’t have this choice.
The Bible says, “You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins. He canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross” (Colossians 2:13-14 NLT).
The cross is the answer to your deepest problem: your separation from God. Make the choice today to be reconciled to God through Jesus and to secure your eternity in heaven.
Talk It Over
How does realizing that none of us are promised another second on Earth give urgency to either your decision to follow Jesus or the decision your friends and family need to make?
Who in your life needs to read the message in this devotional? How can you develop your relationship to a point where you can share this message with them?
If the decision to follow Jesus and have life—or reject Jesus and not have life—is so clear and stark, why is it still hard for some people to choose?
Are you ready to make the choice?
If you are ready to commit your life to Jesus Christ, then pray this prayer:
“Dear Jesus, you have promised that if I believe in you, everything I’ve ever done wrong will be forgiven, I will learn the purpose of my life, and you will accept me into your eternal home in heaven one day.
“I confess my sin, and I believe that you are God, my Savior. I receive you into my life as my Lord. Today I’m turning over every part of my life to your management. You have the right to call the shots in my life.
“Jesus, I want to relax in your love. Thank you that I don’t have to earn it or deserve it or work for it. I want to use the rest of my life to serve you instead of serving myself. I humbly commit my life to you and ask you to save me and accept me into your family. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.”
If you just prayed to accept Jesus, please email me at Rick@PastorRick.com and let me know. I’d like to send you some free materials to help you start your journey with Jesus.
