So he said he would destroy them—had not Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach before him to keep his wrath from destroying them.

Psalm 106 

So he said he would destroy them—had not Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach before him to keep his wrath from destroying them. v23

We need others in our lives to intercede on our behalf - to prevent and/or pray for us when we go astray...when we turn away from God.

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. James 5:16

And from each human being, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of another human being. Genesis 9:5

As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another. Proverbs 27:17

No doubt, Jesus went to the cross for us but He also provided our brothers and sisters in Christ to support and encourage us in our faith.  We need each other.

My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are an awesome God - You are always with us - through Your Word, the Holy Spirit, the Church, and Your brothers and sisters in Christ.  Thank You Jesus for providing such support, encouragement and love.  I need You desperately and I need what You do desperately.  I am broken - impatient, quick to anger, and slow to listen...among my many sins.  Please forgive me.  Help me turn from my sin and turn towards You.  Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, mind, and strength.  Help me love others as You do.  Help me grow in my faith.  Give me strength.  Give Lisa strength.  Please heal and cure her of her cancer and the side effects from chemo.  Help me lead and serve Lisa, Zach, and Dustin and serve You.  Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
