DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY, JUNE 20, 2012
TWO ARE BETTER THAN ONE
Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor.
For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.
Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone? And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken. Ecclesiastes 4:9-12
Two are better than one. Ecclesiastes clearly tells us a few reasons why two are better than one: They have a good reward for their labor; they have someone close by to help if one falls; they can stay warm in bed together; and if ever there is a fight, the two can back up the enemy. Jesus declares in Matthew18:20 "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." Jesus is in the middle of the united pair. Jesus makes the three-fold cord that no man shall separate.
Today, let us celebrate togetherness!
