Amos 3:3 (MSG)
Do two people walk hand in hand if they aren’t going to the same place?

Partnership is the cooperative relationship between two or more people or groups who agree to share responsibility for achieving a specific goal by pulling resources, skills, and time together.
We can only walk with those we agree with, walking together is partnering with another to reach a goal agreeable to all parties.
There are those whom we’ve parted ways from for personal, business, or spiritual reasons, because we no longer agree, and can no longer walk together.
There are all kinds of partnerships, but every one of them is rooted in a relationship that is based on sharing, participating and productivity which leads to the reciprocal relationship between those who receive a resource and those who give it out to attain a fruitful venture.
Ecclesiastes 4:9 says two are better than one, that, a partnership is infinitely better than working alone because working together leads to more satisfying outcomes. Partnership has an advantage that a solitary person never has.
We can partner with other people for business and financial purposes, but do we know that we can partner with the Lord for the spread of the gospel and soul-winning? We either finance the spread of the gospel through ministers, give money to godly causes, tell others of what projects are beneficial to them, to others and God, we may even join others on mission or partner with them for someone else to go.
The Philippians’ participation provided financial support that helped Paul spread the gospel in 4:15, 18. Their partnership in his ministry was the reason he prayed for them with joy.
What and who do you partner with?
Do you give to the work of the kingdom?
Do you take time to pray for those on the mission field and the spread of the gospel?
How about putting a fraction of finance towards helping brethren start a project or business that will change lives and help others?
Luke 5 recounts Peter’s net-breaking fish catch; They beckoned to their partners, had they not called them to help, the net would have broken, and all the fish lost.
What a pity that the body of Christ would rather leave a soul to perish than direct them to a church closer to them because of envy, competition, pride, and selfishness. If they help each other in the spirit of Christian fellowship, more souls will come to the knowledge of the truth.
We could partner with others by recommending someone for something we can’t do or have as Paul did with Philemon for Onesimus in 1:17. Paul said to Philemon, “if you see me as a partner and consider me as a friend, do this for me, that is, partner with me to help Onesimus. Would you consider partnering with someone today to make a difference?
As much as we love to make progress in every area of life, without partnering with the Holy Spirit, progress will be elusive as the Father knows that a partnership between the Holy Spirit and you will bring His will to pass because the Holy Spirit walks alongside you always according to 2 Corinthians 13:14 to guide, teach and help us in every way.
As Paul referred to Titus in 2 Corinthians 8:23, we are co-labourers in Christ. Partnership in kingdom business yields eternal dividend.
Shalom
