Where is your brother?
When God asked this question to Cain, he had no idea that he in fact had the responsibility of keeping his brother Abel. Because he failed to accept his responsibility to care for Abel he eventually was driven to murdering him and was ushered out of the presence of God.
Mr Allen spoke on seeing every believer as a brother or sister and holding them in prayer and intercession because this is what God expects us to do. We are still sane and standing firm not only because we believe in Christ but because of another's devotion to Christ for our lives. Those faithful friends who are always interested in our spiritual well-being and upliftment are the ones who keep us from straying too far from God. Yet when we think that no one is interested in us and no one cares about 'where we are' we should start seeing Jesus Christ as the friend who sticks closer than a brother. Many earthly friends forsake and disappoint us, but if we stay close to 'our brother in Jesus Christ' He will always be close enough to keep us, He is interceding for us day and night at the right hand side of the Father, what are we going to tell the Father when He asks us: "where is your brother?"
Let us adhere to God when he speaks and not be guilty of the spiritual death of our brother.
