In the battles of life, we need God, and we need people who will help us.
We see this in Exodus 17: 11-13; “Whenever Moses held up his hands, Israel prevailed, and whenever he lowered his hands, Amalek prevailed. But Moses hands grew weary, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it, while Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side. So his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. And Joshua overwhelmed and his people with the sword.”
In life’s battles, we need God’s intervention, which is the weapon of prayer. We need to look to Him because our help comes from the Lord!
We also need partners and friends who will be with us in the battles of life. I am thankful for my family, friends, and prayer partners who battle with me in prayer. These are people who are not concerned about titles and trophies but are concerned about the battle.
Today, we need to pray and seek the Lord, but we also need to gather real friends and partners who will help us when we are weak and struggling in life.
Thank you, Lord, for Your faithfulness, and thank you to my family, friends, and prayer partners, who help me in every battle!
