Choose Your Friends Wisely.


It happens quite often, although it shouldn’t.  What? 
When we as children of God get discouraged & lose sight of what God has put on our hearts. I’ll be the first to admit that my flesh is WEAK.  I NEED Holy Spirit to speak to me daily, to show me that He completes me, that I should not rely on my own knowledge and that even though I cannot see the things He is doing supernaturally, I need to keep my faith.  I need to believe at all times that my Father loves me and He is constantly working in my favor even if it is unseen in the natural. 
This verse is great and it describes the wonderful friends my God has Blessed me with to uplift me in these troubled times.
As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.Proverbs 27:17
I pray that God will send people to you who will be there when you feel like you can no longer fight.  The Lord says to choose your friends wisely.  ((Do not be misled: "Bad company corrupts good character."  1 Corinthians 15:33))  So do just that! They will lift you up when you feel like you’ve been beaten down. God knows when you aren’t at your best, He knows when you need some encouragement.  But if you do what He says and make those friends who love Him and put Him first in their lives, He’ll turn around and use them as His vessels and they will speak life into you.  They will correct you if you need correction.  They will love you when you feel as though no one else loves you.  This world & the god of this world will try everything to tear you down.  But God has a greater plan for you!
You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. 1 John 4:4
So REJOICE, because JESUS is on your side. The Kingdom of Heaven is inside of you, you have all power and authority over those negative thoughts or those evil words that are being targeted at you.  Plead the Blood of Jesus on yourself & your family daily! With Him we have already won! Amen!
