[Topic] - WHO IS WITH YOU?
[Scripture] - Psalm 16:8 (KJV). "I have set the Lord always before me: because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved."
[Message] - Good morning Beloved. We will sing unto our God because He has dealt bountifully with us.
'Show me your friends and I will tell you who you are'. Oh how true that statement is. Many of us have placed little or virtually no importance on who our friends are, or who we choose as companions, until it's too late and there's almost no coming back.
Psalm 1:1-3 gives us 3 categories of companions we must never associate with: the ungodly, sinners, and scornful. If we decide to move with them, it won't be long before they introduce us to their father, the devil (John 8:44).
Proverbs 13:20 says that if you walk with the wise, you become wise, and a companion of fools shall be destroyed. In simple terms, 'you are who you walk with!' The people we walk with affect us so much they in the end, they either make or mar our destinies.
David had Jonathan, Joshua had Caleb, Jesus had His disciples, Timothy had Paul, Daniel and the 3 Hebrew boys, and so on, and they made it. However, Ahitophel and Absalom, Korah, Abiram and Dathan had the wrong set of companions and it led to their failures.
Those who are with you are either for you or against you. Don't make the mistake of thinking they are all for you. If God opens your eyes to see that you must drop some people, please do so fast. Who are with you?
#SELAH
PRACTICAL STEP :- Look at all of those you call friends and prayerfully and practically drop those who won't help your destiny. Friendship is by choice and not by force.
