CUT THE ROPE

August 6, 2013

When you are climbing a mountain, if one person is moving slowly, everyone else gets slowed down because there is a rope around all of you. If one person starts moving fast, you all begin to move at the same pace. Prov 13:20 says, “He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.”

Who are you rolling with? Let me ask you, is he/she a friend or a foe? A friend helps you become better in life while an enemy leads you astray. If his/her priorities are outside the will of God, and you call that person a friend, sir/ma, it is going to be hard for you to get far in life. Why? Our God is a God of relationship, as such, every relationship in our lives matter as well. Make sure you are building relationships with people who are going to where you are going.

Are you rolling with a gossip, a negative, complaining person? Is your own friend an expert in anger affairs? Maybe your own so called best friend is a cheat, drunkard or a fornicator? Or you have a friend in each category I have mentioned. My friend, if you want to become who God has created you to be, you have to find some new friends. 2 Cor 6:14 says, “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?”

You have to decide, are you going to the top or you are going to play around people who are not going there? “Ah! Henry, you mean I should cut off my best friend, we have been friends for ages?” Are you willing to sacrifice your life, destiny and future for someone who doesn’t care anything about the will of God? No matter who the person is, cut the rope now! I pray God gives you the grace and strength needed to break away from every demonic and destructive relationship around you in Jesus Name. Amen!
