So it’s always a glorious day when we see someone stop trying to take on big jobs by
himself, but instead choosing to share the burden. We see smiles and even laughter again. We see deep friendships forming because of
the teamwork and communication happening. We also see people who had been
experiencing fear, anxiety, loneliness, and anger, suddenly at peace with life.
The Bible says in many places that there is great value in a team. Furthermore,
God identifies and even ordains 3 specific teams:
1) The first is the team of husband/wife. If you are married God intended for you to do
most things in life as a team and to enjoy each other in the process.
2) The second team is the church. The Bible didn’t say that church is a place
where you go, it said church is a team of people who serve each other and
benefit greatly by gathering together often.
3) The third team is one you might have guessed. You and God are a team if you believe in the
death and resurrection of His Son to forgive your sins. The Bible says that God gave you His Holy
Spirit inside of you at the time of your saving faith, which means he is on your team and will guide and strengthen you.
So, here’s a great way to fail miserably at life in
2017. Ignore the incredible teammates
you have who want to help you succeed.
Don’t open up to your spouse or your friends from your church. Don’t seek guidance from your pastor or
Godly mentor. Above all, stay away from church
gatherings as much as possible and remember never to pray.
