In a relay race, everyone is expected to run their lap, then pass the baton to the other team member, who does the same with the next lap and the next lap, until they reach the finish line.
Once they are united and holding fast to the baton—not dropping it— their team will definitely win. Why? Because they were united in one goal: to assist each other in winning the race. It was not a one-man event but a team working together.
The same is true with football. It takes a team effort for the team to win. If a player wants to keep the ball all to himself, his team will definitely lose.
Some games can be won by one person. Take a sprint, for example, the one that crosses the finish line first is the winner. But some games cannot be won alone; it is vital to have the team working together.
Those are examples of games. Now, let us take it to another level: life. Have you heard the saying that goes, “No man is an island”? We can all agree that things are much more difficult to accomplish alone compared to having help.
What have you been struggling with all this time? You are not alone; now is the time to ask for help! The word of God supports unity.
For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them. Matthew 18:20
Maybe you have been disappointed by people before, but now it’s time to trust in the God of the Bible and the people of God. I am here to unite in faith with you, in agreement with your blessing. We are united in the name of the Lord Jesus, and He is in the midst of us. Is that enough proof for you to believe that something great can happen?
May the God of the Bible bless you!
Bishop Bira Joshua
