10-06-07 Romans 12:10

Romans 12:10 (Philips)
Let us have real warm affection for one another as between brothers, and a willingness to let the other man have the credit.
Romans 12:10 (NLT)
Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other.
Romans 12:10 (NAS)
Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor;



There are many things that God expects of you, things that He has commanded you to do. One of these is to show love and tender affection to your brothers and sisters in the Body of Christ. You should cherish them, as you do your children or your spouse. Treat your brethren as friends and companions, of whom you always think well.

You must value other believers, for Jesus paid a high price for each one. Strive always to honor them, deferring to and reverencing them. All are precious in the sight of the Lord.
If you need to, go before your brethren, leading them in the way. Guide and direct your fellow believers, accompanying and encouraging them in their walk before Adonai. Always consider and think about the needs of others. Use your power and authority to help them in any way. Esteem them highly even as the Lord esteems you, and celebrate their lives.
