My brother’s keeper
Genesis 4:9
And the Lord said unto Cain, where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother’s keeper?
The verse above indicates that God expects us to be each other’s keeper.
Being each other’s keeper I believe involves:
-Bearing each other’s burden (Galatians 6:2)
-Being ready to sacrifice for each other like Jonathan did for David (1 Samuel 20:9)
-Praying for one another ( Ephesians 6:18)
Dear christian brethren, be concerned about one another. If you do not see someone in church for instance call or visit. Share whatever you have with your friend.
Galatians 6:1-2
Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself lest thou also be tempted.
Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ
The passage above confirm’s what was explained above.
Determine in your heart today to be your brother’s keeper
God be with you
How can I apply the word to my life?
1.Whenever you say a prayer remember a friend in need.
Prayer
Meditate on the words of this song
Sometimes it’s hard for me to understand
Why we pull away from each other so easily
Even though we are walking the same road
Yet we build dividing walls between our brothers and ourselves
But I do not care what label you may wear
If you belong with Jesus
You belong with me..
You are my brother
You are my sister
So take me by the hand
Together we will work
Until He comes
There is no foe that can defeat us
When we are working side by side
As long as there is love
We will stand
Amen
