Psalm 9verse 9 ‘The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.’
I hope you are enjoying this series of teaching on how to live through this season! As you can see from our text scripture that God has promised to be our refuge and place of fortress, so there is no reason for you to fear or worry! The truth of the matter is that he has created certain pathways for you to be triumphant in this season and as you follow this path your victory and lifting is assured. My intention in today’s lesson is to share with you another powerful instrument that will enable you to live through this season successfully! If you are ready for this, here we go!
4. By staying in fellowship. Don’t be out of fellowship if you really want to be victorious in this season. Stay in fellowship with God! You need him more than ever before! Stay in fellowship with the people that God has sent into your life. Stay in fellowship with the support systems that God has placed around you. Stay in fellowship with his word, prayers, your spouse, friends and the house of the lord. Acts4v42, 46.
My dearly beloved ones, don’t do life alone! God never intended for you to do life all by yourself otherwise he would not have created Eve! Gen2v18.
None of us is as powerful as all of us. None of us is as strong as all of us. None of us is as good as all of us. None of us is as great as all of us. You need me and I need you! We actually need one another! So stop trying to go solo! Loneliness and social isolation kills! Embracing community helps us to live longer and be happier! This is the singular reason why wolves never walk alone! They walk in packs! So in whose company are you walking? Who are you hanging out with? You will smell like the company you keep and infact the company you keep is the prophecy of your life. So my admonition to you in this season is to stay in fellowship with God and the support systems he has placed around your life. This is where your security and covering lies in this hour! I pray that you will never walk alone in this season. May God open your eyes to the support systems he has placed around you!
