Soul Brothers
August 13, 2023
by Pastor Chuck SwindollScriptures: Exodus 4:27–28
Now the LORD had said to Aaron, “Go out into the wilderness to meet Moses.” So Aaron went and met Moses at the mountain of God, and he embraced him. Moses then told Aaron everything the LORD had commanded him to say. And he told him about the miraculous signs the LORD had commanded him to perform. (Exodus 4:27–28)
God knew Moses felt lonely in that moment. God knew His man needed some human companionship. Perhaps before Moses felt his first pang of loneliness, God was already moving to meet his need. Aaron was Moses’ big brother, his senior by three years. And the Lord sought this brother out and said to him, “Aaron, go to Moses’ side now. He’s on a long, wilderness road, heading for Egypt. Your younger brother has been through some tough things. He needs a soul brother, right now.”
Moses said, “Aaron, listen to this. You’ll never believe it. There I was, out with the sheep one day, just like a thousand other days before. And all of a sudden—whoosh!—this bush caught fire, and it wouldn’t stop burning. So I stopped and stared. And as I got closer—Aaron, listen to this, man—God was speaking from that bush! And here’s what He told me.”

If Aaron doubted a single word of the account, Scripture never mentions it. In fact, he was already prepared to believe every word Moses told him. Hadn’t God called him out of Egypt to meet his younger brother in the desert? So Aaron listened, nodded his head, and said, “That’s great, Moses. I’m with you, bro.”
Do you have a closeness with your brother or a kindred spirit in your sister? Do you have a friend with whom you can face the realities of your life?
You may have lots of friendships in your life, but you’ll probably never have more than a couple of friends on that deeper, spiritual, soul-to-soul level. You can tell such a friend anything that God is doing in your life, and you’ll find a warm reception and deep affirmation. If you don’t have such a friendship, tell God about your longing. He’s the same God who moved Aaron’s heart down in Egypt while Moses was walking alone on the desert road. And remember, the best way to find such a friend is to be such a friend
