Verse of the Day: Numbers 32:6 NKJV
“And Moses said to the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben: “Shall your brethren go to war while you sit here?”
As believers, we have a responsibility to support and uplift one another. Just as the tribes of Reuben and Gad would have been wrong to claim their land while leaving their brothers to fight alone, so too are we called to stand with our fellow believers in the struggles they face. The sacrifices and labours of those who have gone before us have blessed us greatly, and it is only fitting that we, in turn, offer our best efforts to the body of Christ.
Others around us are boldly confronting the challenges of our time and rescuing those in spiritual peril. If we choose to remain idle, we must take heed, lest we fall under judgment. Our Savior calls us to serve, asking, "Why do you stand here idle all day?" We have no excuse to offer. The dedicated work of missionaries, pastors, and fellow Christians should spur us on, not shame us into inaction.
Arise! It’s time to serve.
