Day 4: Gathering and Building Together

Scripture:
"Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another." — Hebrews 10:24-25

Reflection:
The strength of a church lies in its members’ commitment to gathering and building one another up. As the pastor emphasized, the weekly gathering of believers fuels the church’s mission and strengthens individual faith. Isolation leads to stagnation, but unity fosters growth.
When we gather with fellow believers, we create an environment for mutual encouragement, accountability, and spiritual edification. What role can you play in building up your church community? Whether it’s through leading, serving, or simply showing up consistently, your presence makes a difference.

Application:
Commit to gathering with your church family regularly. Look for ways to build others up through words of encouragement, acts of service, or sharing your testimony. If you’re not already part of a small group or ministry team, prayerfully consider joining one.

Prayer:
Father, thank You for the gift of community. Help me to prioritize gathering with fellow believers and to use my gifts to build others up. May our unity glorify You and draw others closer to Jesus. In His name, Amen.

Questions for Reflection:
1. How has gathering with other believers strengthened your faith?
2. What can you do this week to encourage someone in your church community?
