Why We Need Each Other February 3, 2007 Part 2

Key to long term success is…

RELATIONSHIPS!

Key to long term success is… RELATIONSHIPS! Success not from independence… it comes from INTER-dependence. “So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.” Romans 12:5

1. I need others to WALK with me “As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him…” Colossians 2:6

1. I need others to WALK with me “As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him…” Colossians 2:6 “When you run alone, you run fast. But when you run together, you run far” Ancient Proverb

1. I need others to WALK with me “And the LORD God said, “It is not good that man should be alone” Genesis 2:18

1. I need others to WALK with me “And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.” Hebrews 10:24-25

1. I need others to WALK with me “And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.” Hebrews 10:24-25 Fellowship is God’s answer to loneliness.

2. I need others to WATCH out for me “Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.” Philippians 2:4

2. I need others to WATCH out for me “Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.” Philippians 2:4 “Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love” Romans 12:10

2. I need others to WATCH out for me “Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” Ecclesiastes 4:12

2. I need others to WATCH out for me Fellowship is God’s answer to DEFEAT. “Two are better than one…for if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls for he has no one to help him up” Ecclesiastes 4:10

3. Need others to WAIT & WEEP with me

“Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers” 1 Peter 3:8

3. Need others to WAIT & WEEP with me Fellowship is God’s answer to DESPAIR. “And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.” 1 Corinthians 12:26
