“When Moses’ hands grew tired, they took a stone and put it under him and he sat on it. Aaron and Hur held his hands up—one on one side, one on the other—so that his hands remained steady till sunset.” Exodus‬ ‭17:12.

Fighting a battle is exhausting. I’m so grateful for this reminder from Exodus. The Lord calls us to fight our enemy, the one who is hell-bent on our destruction. To raise up the Lord’s standard and wave his banner of Love and Truth over His lost world and reclaim what the enemy has stolen.

I love the image of Aaron and Hur holding up Moses’ arms when he was too weak to do it. Friends who come and support when I’m battle weary are literally answers to prayer. Those who stand in the gap and offer up prayers when words fail and my faith falters. Those who speak truth and life into the weary and worn out places of my heart.

Thank you Father God for my Aarons and my Hurs. I am so grateful for the many times they’ve lifted my arms in battle. Thank you for your word that renews and encourages. Help me be an encouragement to someone today in Jesus’ name amen
