The Father says today, go out in your day and be an encourager. Be a radical encourager. You have no authority to criticize or correct until you've seen those around you in My eyes, with My heart of compassion. Give comfort to others, even if you’ve been short of it, even if you've been harsh in the past. Never forget that you make happen for others, I will make happen for you. When Job prayed for his friends, I turned his captivity and restored him with increase. Others may mock and deride many and even come against you with great ferocity, thinking they are doing My will. Forgive their ignorance and love them anyway.

Prophet Russ - I Choose to Be an Encourager - Today!

Bless those who don't understand you, attack you, and revile you. Forgive, release, and bless. Release them to My purposes. It may be difficult, and your pride will interfere, but bear in mind that in following My mind and My heart, the end of the matter in your life will be increase and not loss. For many, your compassion and forgiveness, even to the ungrateful, will nonetheless be the only mercy they will ever receive. There will be a few, those who have inflicted their opinions and bigotry upon you, thinking in so doing that they control your future and what happens next - they will ask forgiveness at long last when they realize their error. Forgive readily. Blessings will pour out upon you as you release love and grace upon those who least deserve it.
