TEXT: "Then the mariners were afraid, and cried every man unto his god, and cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to lighten it of them. But Jonah was gone down into the sides of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep" (Jonah 1:5)
This morning, I still want to shed more light on how association can determine the outcome of one's life. It is important because one wrong association can wreck any destiny. No matter what you have acquired or where you have attained in life, one wrong association can bring you down to zero. This is the meaning of today's anchor scripture. The people in the ship lost their belongings because one wrong man was in the ship with them. Someone said "Your friendship is your life-ship." So, who do you carry along in your ship in your life's journey?
No matter how good you are, you will soon become bad if you keep bad friend(s). Evil association corrupts good destiny (1Cor 15:33). A wise man also said: "What you will become in five years from now is determined by: 1 - The kind of book you read and 2 - The kind of company you keep. Don't let the company you keep keep you down. We all have one life to live. Never toil with yours on wrong association.
Jesus had to pray all through the night to choose His disciples. You must therefore be careful who you call your friends. Friendship is by choice and not by force. Who are your friends? What is the need of a relationship you know will end you in the pit? Come out from among them and be ye separate! (2Cor 6:17).
PRAYER: Be free from every wrong association that is keeping you down in Jesus name!
