Expert Solution

I can incorporate encouragement to those I lead into the ministry by using the word of God. The scripture has various instances where God`s actions were meant to encourage those people to feel discouraged. The lost son, who had wronged his father after receiving his inheritance and leaving home to enjoy life, became discouraged after losing everything he had inherited from his father. He decided to return home, afraid of his father`s reaction. However, on reaching home, his father accepted him back and celebrated his return despite the wrongs he had committed (Gutierrez, 2013). I would use such scripture to encourage my congregation and show them that we have a forgiving father who does not judge like human beings. I would encourage them to turn their prayer to God and seek forgiveness.
