Hey church family time for devos if you got your Bible we're going to go to Luke chapter 5

with this incredible and miraculous account Luke chapter 5 will pick it up in verse 17

on one of those days as Jesus was teaching Pharisees and teachers of the law, they were sitting

there who had come from every village in Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem, and the power of

the Lord was with him to heal.

And behold, some men were bringing on a bed a man who was paralyzed and they were seeking to bring him the paralyzed man and lay him before Jesus.

Let me stop right there.

Do you have those kind of friends?

Do you have those kind of friends?

Do you have the kind of friends that if you are in need, then they, at great expense to themselves,

would help you?

So in my mind, the Bible doesn't say how many men there were, but in my mind there's at least four.

There's four corners of this mat, so I'm thinking there's at least one man on each corner.

I dare you to write down right now four people

in your life that you could count on for anything and everything. If you don't have those kinds of

friends, and I'm just telling you, you're not doing life right. God said that it's not good for man to be

alone. That was just not a comment about Adam needed a date.

It means that you and I were built.

We were wired for a relationship.

And if you're a Jesus follower, then being a Christian, it's not a solitary sport.

It is not.

We are supposed to do this thing together.
