Many people today are still victims of wrong association. They move with people who move them away from Christ. This is simply because of the few benefits enjoyed from such groups. But the truth is that if you don’t join the flyers, you may never fly. The reason so many lives are down today is because of the kind of floor people they are moving with.
It was said of Moses that he refused to be identified with the prince of Egypt but preferred to suffer with the Israelites, the chosen people of God. Friend, you need to know that the kind of people you move with will determine what you will be in life.
Association has a strong influence on the life of a man. Each of us has the nature of being influenced by the people around us. The moment you belong to a group consciously or unconsciously, you will want to be faithful to the group. So if they drink, they will influence you into the same. If they have a multi-home, they will influence you to do the same. If they are successful people, they will influence you to do the same. God’s word says, “He that works with the wise will be wise and the companion of fools shall be destroyed” (Proverbs 13:20).
Check your associations, you need a good one to make your life good. Locate a good fellowship. Don’t be tied down to failures. Move with the people you know for progress. Then your life will also move forward.
Prayer: Lord, deliver me from wrong associations.
“BIRD OF THE SAME FEATHER FLY TOGETHER”
