'Encouraging' in the Bible

He appointed priests to their offices, encouraging them in their service at the LORD's Temple.

A person's anxiety weighs down his heart, but an appropriate word is encouraging.

When he arrived, he rejoiced to see what the grace of God had done, and with hearty determination he kept encouraging all of them to remain faithful to the Lord,

strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to continue in the faith. "We must endure many hardships," they said, "to get into the kingdom of God."

If it is encouraging, devote yourself to encouraging others. If it is sharing, share generously. If it is leading, lead enthusiastically. If it is helping, help cheerfully.

not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another even more as you see the day of the Lord coming nearer.

I urge you, brothers, to listen patiently to my encouraging message, for I have written you a short letter.
