Scripture
Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, For he has no one to help him up. Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
Application
Have you gotten a dream or vision in your mind of what you want your life to be? Has God given you a business idea or told you what to do? Has God put in your heart a new work to do? Whatever it is, plan that things would go wrong.
I understand what it is to be optimistic. In fact, I am a very optimistic person. However, the reality is things would go wrong. What you don't plan for would happen. Things would not go as you expect them to.
Many people have given up on their God given dreams because things have been going wrong for a while in their lives. They used to believe their dreams passionately and stepped out to pursue it. However, along the way things went horribly wrong. Then they started listening to those who had told them before that they couldn't do it. Those who told them it wasn't possible. They then begin to doubt their vision, strength and abilities. So they agreed.
So, what is the way out? It is found in the scriptures above. Find a person or group of like minds. There are people, groups and associations that have the same interests that you have. They have accomplished your goals. Reach out to them. Join the group. Pay for the subscription if you have to. So that when you fall, your tribe will lift you up.
Prayer Points
- Thank You Lord for this.
- Lord direct me to people of like minds in Jesus name.
