I’LL PULL UP FOR YOU

Scripture:   Galatians 6:2 NLT

Share each other’s burdens, and in this way obey the law of Christ.

Testimony:

When I think about my own life, I see how God has placed people around me who truly “pulled up” for me; Pastors, Ministers, and Missionaries who showed up not only with words, but with actions that have influenced me spiritually. Their prayers, encouragement, and example have poured into me, helping me grow and stay rooted in faith. I could share how this ministry (M.O.R. Ministry) has blessed and invested in me, but it has also shown me what it means to walk in the love of Christ. I am grateful for the way they’ve pulled up, time and time again, and I pray that I, too, may continue to be part of what God has designed when a community of people pulls up for one another and carries each other’s burdens in love.

Edify:

Today, I want to remind you that, when a brother or sister is in need, we don’t sit back; we pull up. The body of Christ is strongest when we pull up for one another in prayer, in encouragement, and service. Ministry is not just what we receive, but how we pull up. When we choose to pull up, we fulfill the law of Christ by being our brother's (and sister's) keeper.

Apply:

Sometimes life gets heavy, and we all face moments where we can’t carry it alone. That’s why it’s so vital that we learn to pull up for one another. A kind word, a prayer, a helping hand, or just showing up can make all the difference. When we pull up for each other, we remind one another that we’re not in this journey alone. And just as others have been there for us, we’re called to be that same strength and support for someone else. Let’s live in a way where our presence says, “I’ll pull up for you.”
