Singles, Be Careful How You Choose Your Friends –Part 2

Singles, Be Careful How You Choose Your Friends –Part 2

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Continuing from yesterday on friends, we began by using Amnon and Jonadab as our case study.

…maybe if his friend had not given him that counsel, he might have lived longer. So the question is, who is your friend? Your friend is the definition and description of your life. Watch the friends you have. Friendship is by choice and not by force.

If you are still single and probably living with your parents, can you confidently introduce your friend to your parents? If your friend is a goal-getter, he will influence you. If she is a gold digger, she will also influence you.

A friend is defined as a person you know well and regard with affection and trust. So you really want to be careful who is covering your back.

Don’t lie down with dogs or else you rise with fleas. Disconnect from those distracting your destiny. The one telling you that you cannot be rich unless you sell your body is not a friend.

The one telling you that you are a bush girl for being a virgin is a foe disguising as an enemy. The one telling you to cheat on your spouse and taste stolen waters is not a mentor but a tormentor of destiny!

The one telling you that you cannot make it unless you become crooked and con is not really a friend.

A good friend will bring progress into your life, but a bad friend will usher you into retrogression!

I love these translations of Proverbs 13:20

Become wise by walking with the wise; hang out with fools and watch your life fall to pieces. –Proverbs  13:20 (MSG)

Keep company with the wise and you will become wise. If you make friends with stupid people, you will be ruined. –Proverbs 13:20 (GNB)

So make up your mind today. Disconnect and reconnect where necessary. Friendship begins with friendship with Jesus. He will then lead you and guide and help you choose good friends who will add to your destiny.

May God, the lover of your soul guide you to choose good friends that will advance your life!

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
I have the strength to disconnect from bad influences. I will no longer be subject to weak and beggarly elements. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I have God’s Spirit and He helps me to choose my friends. I am not naïve, I am decisive in God.

PRAYERS FOR THE DAY
God, deliver me from the snares and traps of wrong association. Open the eyes of my understanding, O Lord, and flood my heart with your light.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
There are friends who may be a man’s destruction, but there is a lover who keeps nearer than a brother. – Proverbs 18:24

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Make a list of your friends. The good, and the bad. Keep the good and disconnect from the bad ones. It is your choice.

BIBLE READING FOR THE DAY
Jeremiah 15

The Kind of Lover You Should Not Marry

The Kind of Lover You Should Not Marry

Reading Time: 2 minutes

The greatest power you have as a single is not your handsomeness or beauty. It is not your height neither is it your hot legs. It is not your phonetics, and it is not your finesse.

Your greatest power, strength or advantage is your CHOICE!

Marriage is not or is not supposed to be by force but by choice.

Your choice!

You will live with your choice! You will live with the consequences of your choice. You will live with the strengths of your choice. You will live with the weaknesses of your choice.

If your choice is good, it translates into a good life. If your choice is bad, bad stuffs awaits.

A lady has the power of choice before wedding. After wedding, she still has choices, but her choice is subdued and influenced by the ultimate choice of her husband.

Many choice ladies on fire for God as singles ended up using the fire to cook only because of their choice.

Destinies have been warped and distorted by the choice of their choice!

In deciding who to marry, go beyond the obvious and plunge deeper to see what is beyond the pulchritude.

Go beyond the flesh of the flesh and check out the bone of the bones.

After you have seen the hot legs, does she have a hot heart as well?
His height attracted you, but does he have a life a well?

A man who doesn’t have a life should not seek for a life partner.

You love his beard gang, are you sure it is not a gang-up against your destiny?
Her smile slays you, but behind the smiles, are you sure there lies no bile?

The choice of a man is zeroed up after wedding, so choose well. The choice of a woman after wedding is final, choose well.

There is no clean divorce, it is always a tearing apart.

To be continued tomorrow.

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
I make the right choice in God.

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Lord, help me to choose wisely.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Isaiah 30:21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Choose wisely

BIBLE READING FOR THE DAY

Isaiah 30
