1 Corinthians 13:3

If I give all I possess to the poor and exult in the surrender of my body, but have not love, I gain nothing.

Romans 12:20

On the contrary, “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink. For in so doing, you will heap burning coals on his head.”

When psōmízō is spoken over you

Words like this one get spoken over people: in a prayer line, in a message from a friend, in a moment nobody planned. The lexicon gives you what psōmízō means. What God is saying to you through it is yours to record and weigh.

Doxa is where you record what was said, in the words it was said in, weigh it against verses like 1 Corinthians 13:3 with people you trust, and return to it in a year to see what came of it.

Doxa, Engage God's Encouragement

God's encouragement is not only for the moment you first receive it. It's for the whole journey.
