Iron Sharpens Iron!
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know that iron sharpens iron and the importance of support from like-minded brothers. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Decades ago, when the Promise Keepers Movement was first beginning, I went to an event at Dodger Stadium. The first night, I could not locate any of my friends from church. The next day, I did connect with my friends.
The night I was alone, I took time to reflect on all Christ was doing with the men in the stadium. It was dynamic to think there were that many active believers from all over southern California in one place.
The next day, I had a greater feeling of personal accountability when I was among friends.
Fellowship with other men was a key ingredient of what made Promise Keepers so dynamic.
Proverbs 27:17 (ESV) was quoted often during that era.
“Iron sharpens iron,
and one man sharpens another.”
Are you in fellowship with other believers?
If not, seek out a few faithful men. Ask them to join with you as accountability partners. Sharpen each other with God’s holy and inspired word.
Keep the faith.
