“As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker among you..” – (2 Corinthians 8:23).

The Bible has many beautiful partnerships which were used mightily to further the Lord’s work. There is the partnership of David and Jonathan which sustained David when Jonathan’s father, King Saul, was pursuing him (1 Samuel 18). The partnerships of Apostle Paul and Timothy was a fatherly – mentor relationship that blessed both (1 Timothy).

Another yet great partnerships was of Moses and his elder brother Aaron. Upon receiving the commission to liberate the children of Israel, Moses linked up with Aaron who was to be his right hand man throughout (Exodus). It was not always smooth. There were uncomfortable moments as when Aaron and Moses’s sister Miriam “began to talk against his back” (Numbers 12: 1-2).

A particularly inspiring moment in this brotherly relationship was when Aaron together with Hur, held up Moses’s arms in a battle against the Amelekites enabling him to pray and prevail. “Aaron and Hur held up his hands up- one on one side one on the other- so that his hands remained steady till sunset “ (Exodus 17:-12).

There are some important lessons here. Everyone needs a partner as we find was true of these giants. Partners could range from spousal support, to ministry partners supporting any of us in the Lord’s work. A partner is someone who upholds the other in prayer and supports him where he is lacking.

Are you finding yourself limited in carrying out the Lord’s work? Do you know of someome out there in the trenches who could profit from your support! Perhaps you need a partner, or, you need to partner with a wanting Ambassador for Christ out there. Today, ask the Lord to lead you to that partner you need to take you to another level in God’s work.

Prayer for today: Lord Father God of Abraham, today I pray that you bring into my life a partner to grow in faith and serve you more, this I pray in Jesus’s name!
