Importance of fellowship

 The Word for Today.     The importance of fellowship Mar 2, 2025 ‘All the believers devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, and to fellowship,’ Acts 2:42 NLT Euclid was a Greek mathematician who lived about three hundred years after Christ. He is best known for his thirteen-volume series of books called Elements. Two of his axioms of geometry have been revised to produce the modern saying: ‘The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.’ Another way of saying this would be ‘something happens in a group that doesn’t happen alone’. That ‘something’ is called ‘synergy’. It comes from the Greek word sunergia, meaning cooperation and working together. The New Testament church practised it: ‘All the believers devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, and to fellowship, and to sharing in meals (including the Lord’s Supper), and to prayer’ (Acts 2:42 NLT).

God can heal your memories

‘And the former shall not be remembered or come to mind.’ Isaiah 65:17 NKJV


Satan is called ‘the accuser’, and he will try to keep you focused on your past. He can hurt you every day unless you accept God’s forgiveness, forgive yourself, and move forward. At the cross, Jesus bore both your sin and shame, but Satan wants you to keep carrying them. Where can you find an answer? Look at these Scriptures:

1)


‘For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered or come to mind’ (Isaiah 65:17 NKJV). You say, ‘But that’s in the future.’ True. But the Bible says we have already ‘… tasted the good Word of God, and the powers of the world to come’ (Hebrews 6:5 KJV) and that our lives can be like ‘… days of heaven upon the earth’ (Deuteronomy 11:21 KJV).

2)


‘Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert’ (Isaiah 43:18-19 NKJV).

3)

‘Do not fear, for you will not be ashamed; neither be disgraced, for you will not be put to shame; for you will forget the shame of your youth, …’ (Isaiah 54:4 NKJV).

You might say, ‘I can’t help but remember!’ Yes, you can! Paul, who killed and imprisoned Christians before becoming an apostle, said: ‘… but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press towards the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus’ (Philippians 3:13-14 NKJV). God can heal your memories, so let the healing begin.
