Open Heaven 14 July 2024 TOPIC: The Law Of Association

MEMORISE: "Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners".1 Corinthians 15:33

READ: 2 Corinthians 6:14-18(KJV)

14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?


15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?


16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

Open Heavens 14  July 2024 — The Law Of Association

17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.


18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 1-3

Open Heaven 14 July 2024 MESSAGE:

The law of association is a very powerful law that every human being on earth must understand and apply correctly. This law is subtle in its operation, and many people don’t realise when it is working on them.


They don’t realise that the people they often speak to, greatly influence the way they think and act. This law states that an individual becomes like the people he or she associates with.


In other words, if a fellow associates with wise people, he or she will become wise. Likewise, if the fellow associates with foolish people, he or she will become foolish.

It is stated clearly in Proverbs 13:20: He that walks with the wise shall be wise but the companion of fools shall be destroyed.


The elders in Yorubaland usually say, “When a leaf stays long with a soap, it will also become a soap.”


You must carefully choose the people you associate with. If your friend is not someone you admire and want to be like, you should unfriend that fellow immediately.


Be friends with wise people that can challenge you, people you can discuss great ideas with. Don’t be friends with people who gossip and are only interested in entertainment when you are together.


Another form of association is with the media. Some people spend a lot of time watching television and scrolling through social media.


Whatever you read or watch has a great influence on who you become. If you read and watch inspiring things, they will inspire you to become great.


Anyone who reads and watches immoral content will eventually become corrupt, as we can see in our memory verse for today.


What kind of content do you constantly consume? Whose content are you consuming on social media? Whose music do you listen to?


These things are a pointer to who you are becoming. When you want to change something about yourself, change the people you associate with.


If you want to get better with your academics, keep company with brilliant people and learn from those who have excelled academically, and you will see your grades get better.


If you want to be more fervent in your Christian life, find friends who read their Bibles, and pray regularly. Soon, you will also be doing the same.


Examine the kind of friends you keep and the kinds of content you consume. Are they a reflection of who you want to become? If they are not, change them now.

Who and what you associate with will greatly influence your life.

Open Heaven 14 July 2024 HYMN 28: Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah

 

1 Guide me, O my great Redeemer,

pilgrim through this barren land;

I am weak, but you are mighty;

hold me with your powerful hand.

Bread of heaven, bread of heaven,

feed me now and evermore,

feed me now and evermore.


2 Open now the crystal fountain,

where the healing waters flow.

Let the fire and cloudy pillar

lead me all my journey through.

Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer,

ever be my strength and shield,

ever be my strength and shield.


3 When I tread the verge of Jordan,

bid my anxious fears subside.

Death of death, and hell’s Destruction,

land me safe on Canaan’s side.

Songs of praises, songs of praises

I will ever sing to you,

I will ever sing to you.
