DO NOT WALK ALONE THIS MONTH

Read: Judges 18:7-31

Meditation verse:

“.. and they struck them with the edge of the sword and burnt the city with fire. There was no deliverer, because it was far from Sidon, and they had no ties with anyone (Judges 18:27-28).

 

The people of Laish, dwelt in isolation. They were far from the next city, Sidon, so they had no ties with anyone. They did not even have rulers in the land to guide them.  When the people of Dan were seeking for a land to capture and inhabit, Laish naturally was their first choice, because it was an easy kill. When they invaded the land and burned it with fire, no one came to their rescue. The people of Laish had lived a simple quiet life all by themselves and as a result they had suffered alone.

 

Do not walk alone this month, do not stand alone. Life was designed for companionship and fellowship. Life is not meant to be lived in isolation.  The bible states that “two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, one will lift his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, for he has no one to help him up. …Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken” (Eccl 4:9-10,12).

 

The people of Laish dwelt alone and paid dearly for it. Building ties and friendships come with their own challenges, but the benefits are enormous. Propose in your heart to build mutually beneficial associations and networks in your place of work, church, community, and all around you. Add value to those in your networks and in your time of need, you will not be alone like the people of Laish.

Have you asked Jesus Christ to come into your heart?

He says in Mathew 11:28, “come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” He longs to give you rest.

Would you like to do so now? Here’s a prayer you can say:

Dear Jesus, I believe that You died to save me from all my sins. Today, I invite you into my heart and I accept you as my Lord and Saviour. Please forgive all my sins and help me to live my life for You.

If you prayed this prayer, send me an email at rockteachingministry@gmail.com. I would love to pray with you personally and send you a copy of my book; ‘Living the Life’ to encourage you as you begin your new life in Christ.

I look forward to hearing from you.
