Even though we may come from many different denominations, we are one in Christ Jesus and should help one another in our quest to defeat the enemy. Judah, the largest tribe, was the first to set out to conquer their land after Joshua had died and requested the help of the Tribe of Simeon, which was the smallest tribe. They told them if they helped them, Judah would return the favor. We should do our best to help one another, whether strong or weak, in faith; combined, we can conquer the enemy. Someone strong in faith can help another in their weakness to become stronger.
The other day, I realized we had a lapsed insurance policy three months past due! We've changed our address many times, but this one fell through the cracks. I freaked out a little and began to pray. After talking to the agent, she assured me we would have to get an entirely new policy because they never reinstate policies that have lapsed for that long. I mentioned returning to the old company and trying to get the new insurance through them since they already knew our property. I hate getting new insurance because they usually want to do inspections, which is much more complicated when you have tenants. She called me back the next day, extremely excited because the insurance company made an exception and agreed to reinstate the original policy. She couldn't believe it and said she had never had that happen. That's when I told her that I had been praying. She was a believer, and her faith was strengthened because of my faith and prayers. Do you see how simple that was? All I did was mention that I had been praying. Others need to hear our "God" stories. Use them whenever you can.
And Judah said unto Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with thee into thy lot. So Simeon went with him. Judges 1:3
