Beloved Charon and God bless you for connecting with us
-
for our morning glory devotion here and haven't trampled international.
-
Come Marcy, we are glad that you are able to
-
join us today. This is Pasta and missus and Massa
-
and will be facilitating today's episode. Beloved, let us pray well,
-
thank you and bless you God for this opportunity to
-
learn from your word. Pray that you teach us and
-
grant us faith to go and walk according to what
-
your word says in Jesus' name. A man, let's take
-
our confession together from Joshua chapter one, the verse eight.
-
This book of the Law shall not depart out of
-
my mouth, but I shall meditate in it day and night,
-
that I may observe to do according to all that
-
is written in it. For then I'll make my re prosperous,
-
and then I will have good success a man. The
-
topic for today is divine connections. Divine connections will take
-
our scripture reading from Ecclesiastics chapter four, the verse nine
-
to thirty two. Are better than one because they have
-
a good reward for their labor. For if before one
-
will lift up his companion, but wore to him who
-
is alone when he falls, for he has no one
-
to help him up again. If two lie down together,
-
they will keep warm. But how can one be warm alone?
-
Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him.
-
And a threefold court is not quickly broken. Provehaps chapter
-
twenty seven, the verse seventeen, as iron chapains ion, so
-
a man sharpens the countenance of his friend, a man
-
divine connections. Our journey in life is deeply rooted in
-
relationships and divine partnerships. The Bible highlights that God often
-
accomplishes his purposes through people connected to one another. Indeed,
-
God's methods are men in God's grand plan. Relate relationships
-
are not just accidental. They are instruments in His hand
-
for growth, encouragement, for correction, and for destiny fulfillment. As
-
we read from Proverbs chapter twenty seven, the verse seventy,
-
as ion chaplains iron, so a man's charpains the countenance
-
of his friend. The people we surround ourselves with can
-
either elevate us into God's purpose or limit our progress.
-
At every season in our life, God strategical oppositions certain
-
individuals around us to catalyze breakthroughs and usher us into
-
new levels and blessings. Indeed, God is the perfect matchmaker
-
of divine connections. He brings mentors, friends, destiny, help us,
-
and spiritual leaders into our lives at the right time
-
to guide, strengthen, and prepare us for what may lie ahead.
-
God knows that the right people in our corner will
-
lift us up when we are weak and encourage us
-
when we are discouraged. Beloved, who is in your corner?
-
Who do you tend to in times of need? One
-
key principle for growth is to intentionally align ourselves with
-
people who are more mature, more wise, and more experienced
-
than we are. Descriptions encourage us to walk with the
-
wise so that we may become wise. Indeed, if we
-
find ourselves always being the most knowledgeable, wisest, or the
-
best in our circles, it may be an indication that
-
God is calling us into a new environment, one where
-
we can be stretched, talk, and inspired by others. We
-
must not settle for comfort zones that may limit our growth. Instead,
-
we must seek new environments and circles where we can
-
be mentored, pasted, and spiritually covered. We must explore relationships
-
that challenge us to grow into the fullness of God's
-
calling upon our lives beloved, whether in our academics, careers, businesses,
-
or in ministry, God places people around us to expand
-
our capacity and sharpen our vision. I have come to
-
realize that growth requires a lot of humility, and that
-
comes by willingness to learn, to be corrected, and to
-
receive from others. The Bible has many examples or how
-
God uses transformative relationships to accomplish his purpose. Connection and
-
loyalty to Naomi positioned her for divine favor and ultimately
-
placed her in the lineage of Christ. Elijah's connection and
-
commitment to Elijah granted him a double portion of his mentors,
-
amounting David found strength and encouragement through Jonathan during seasons
-
of adversity. David also had his mighty Men, who played
-
a crucial role in establishing his kingdom. In the New Testament,
-
Timothy and Silas grew under the mentorship of Paul, becoming
-
effective ministers of the Gospel. Apollus is another example. Though
-
very eloquent and knowledgeable in the scriptures, his understanding was
-
incomplete until Priscilla and Aquila took him aside and expounded
-
the way of the Lord more perfectly punto him. The
-
teachers us that no matter how gifted and knowledgeable we are,
-
there's always a room for growth, and God often uses
-
people to deepen our understanding and to refine our calling
-
and our lives. Beloved, God has more for us. Let
-
us not settle just for where we are. We must
-
be discerning about relationships we need to build and the
-
ones we need to let go. We must pay attention
-
to the leading of the Holy Spirit. We must seek
-
out for those who challenge us, inspire us, and draw
-
us cruser to God's purpose. As we align ourselves with
-
the right people, we position ourselves for divine a celebration
-
and for lasting impact. May God grant us wisdom to
-
descend and embrace the relationships that will lead us into
-
our next level. Men, God bless you. Let's take Armi
-
in revers for today from Proveraps Chapter twenty seven, the
-
