GODLY ALLIES,BY PASTOR FESTUS

"Believers love boat - Pst Festus"
Godly Allies;
I stationed the people by their
clans….
--Nehemiah 4:13
Isn’t it great to have family and close
friends who encourage and uplift you?
We all need people in our lives who
are encouragers, enablers, and
energizers.
But it’s also very important for
followers of Christ to have close
friends who are also believers. We
need fellowship with God’s people! I’m
talking about people who pray for us,
love us unconditionally, and urge us on
in our walk with Christ. We need the
Lord, but we also need others who stir
us up to love and good works
(Hebrews 10:24).
The Scripture says in Proverbs 17:17
that “a brother is born for adversity.”
My favorite definition of a friend is
someone who comes in when the
entire world goes out.
Nehemiah understood the importance
of this principle. He placed friends
next to friends and families next to
families as they worked on the walls
of Jerusalem in order to get the most
out of them. Everyone gets more done
when they have the support of
someone who loves and cares about
them.
Are you walking in fellowship with
other believers today? Are there
people in your life right now who are
aware of your spiritual victories and struggles?

If not, I want to encourage you to pray
that the Lord would give you the
determination and courage to invite
people like this into your life. Because
we all need the support of good, godly
friends!
We all need others who stir us up to love and to do good works.
Pray with me; Lord send godly allies into my life, career and ministry in Jesus name!
May you connect with destiny helpers today in Jesus name!
