CHOOSE YOUR ASSOCIATE WISELY

MEMORY VERSE: - 1 Corinthians 15:33 - "Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals.”

The people you hang out with matters. To have a positive life, you must be around positive people. To enjoy a successful life, you need to hang out with successful people. We are influenced by the people with whom we associate with.

Putting yourself amongst wrong sort of people who are unserious with their life, who are loafers, lazy, indiscipline, purposeless, dreamless, certainly, they will influence you and bring you down to their level. Proverbs 13:20 says, "He who walks with the wise will become wise, but the companion of fools will be destroyed."

You can see from this verse that companionship rubs on you. If you associate with, listen to, and learn from wise people, then you also will become wise. Certainly, when you walk with the wise, you will gain wisdom by association. But if you hang around fools you will not only become foolish but will be ruined. 

The Message Bible version puts Proverbs 13:20 this way, "Become wise by walking with the wise; hang out with fools and watch your life fall to pieces." The fool has no future ambition or plans. He or she wastes his opportunities and destroys whatever that is delivered into his or her hands to build.. 

You are the company you keep. You can't continue to associate with the wrong sort of people and expect a change in your life. You must break off and reposition yourself for a better you and a great life. Therefore, choose your friends wisely.


PRAYER 

Thank you Father for another opportunity to glorify you in my life. Today, I receive wisdom to choose my associates in my life. in Jesus name, Amen.

GOD WILL FINISH WHAT HE STARTED

GOD WILL FINISH WHAT HE STARTED MEMORY VERSE: - Philippians 1:6 - “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:” God doesn't do anything halfway, whatever he starts, he brings it into a perfect end. They maybe distractions in the process, they maybe some forces contending with you to stop you from getting to the finishing point but they can't stop you because they cannot stop He who is involved in the affairs of your life.  Therefore, no matter what the enemy throws your way, have faith in God, refuse to be distracted, refuse to be frustrated by anyone but stay focused: for the Lord God in the midst of your life is mighty and greater than all. Who can contend with Him, who can withstand His great power. He promised you that he is with you always. “And lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” (Matthew 28:20). And furthermore, in Hebrews 13:5 He said, "I will not leave you

AVOID DIVERSIONS

AVOID DIVERSIONS MEMORY VERSE: - Jonah 1:3 - "But Jonah got up and went in the opposite direction to get away from the LORD. He went down to the port of Joppa, where he found a ship leaving for Tarshish. He bought a ticket and went on board, hoping to escape from the LORD by sailing to Tarshish” (NLT) One of the ways the devil is using to rub many people of their blessing is through diversions. The Lord gave a message to Jonah to go to the city of Nineveh and announce his judgment against it because of their wickedness but Jonah chose not to go, instead he went another way and his own way the scripture says was the "Opposite Direction." Oftentimes, people choose to go the opposite direction against God's original agenda for them when things are not going as planned. When vision is being delayed and when they are hit with challenges and difficulties in the process of trying to achieve what they were given to do. In the opposite direction is confusion.... In the opposi

NOW IS YOUR MOMENT

  AbayeLiz Daily Inspirational   NOW IS YOUR MOMENT MEMORY VERSE: - John 11:21-24, "Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee. Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again. Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day"   A lot of people pray but do not believe they can have the answer to their request immediately. Their faith is always in the future. The mindset of future has kept them from embracing that which is theirs at the moment. Thus, they neglect the place of faith in the now of today’s experience. While Martha could only think of the future as the only time her brother could rise again from the dead, Jesus was seeing it happening in the moment. Beloved, it's time to wake up and begin to walk in the 'now' faith. What is now? It means at the present time or moment. it is right
