Choose Your
Friends Wisely
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“Do not be deceived: ‘Evil company corrupts good habits.’ ”
(1 Corinthians 15:33, NKJV)
TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
Sometimes, in order to embrace the destiny God has in store, you have to be willing to make some changes in your life. You have to be willing to examine where you are and what you need to move forward. This may mean that you need to change some friends that you’re spending time with. Maybe they were fine for a season in your life, but now you’ve outgrown them. This is a new season, and in order for you to rise higher, you have to break away from relationships that are limiting you. You have to develop some new relationships with people who are going to pull you up and inspire you to rise higher.
And, this doesn’t just mean separating yourself from people who are holding you back spiritually. I’ve found that if you’re the smartest one in your group, your group is too small. Find people who will challenge you to stretch to the next level and become everything God’s created you to be. Remember, he who walks with the wise becomes wise. Choose your friends wisely and don’t be deceived. Surround yourself with people who will cause you to rise higher so you can live in the destiny God has in store for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father God, thank You for Your grace and mercy. Thank You for the good plan You have for my life. Help me choose my friends and companions wisely so that I can continue to move forward in the destiny You have for me in Jesus’ name. Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen

Know your strength! This question has been asked over and over again – Who do the strong go to? Have you ever felt like you have the answers for everyone else, always there for everyone, but when you need assistance you cannot help yourself and there is no one there to help you? Why?  Because God has equipped you with the gift to be a blessing to others, however you must remember the strong go to God (not man/woman). We must go to him in spirit and in truth seeking guidance and wisdom - always remembering to repent 1 st . With an open mind and open heart trusting and believing that the storm is over and you shall be rewarded - it is time to reap what you have sown.  Its OK that you went through publicly …remember a little rain falls on the just and unjust alike, keep the faith and stay strong the battle is over – you won – stop worrying – its harvest time – for everything there is a season – and now this is your season to walk in your anointing – to ...
