Following the Leader
Proverbs 22:24-25 – Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go: Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul.
In the scripture above, Solomon warns of making friendships with angry and furious men for fear that his son learn their ways and become snared. In line with this, we must also be careful of all friendships and associations we choose to make.
In many friendships, you may find that you will take some of their ways (traits) or vice versa. For example, when growing up, you may have dressed the same as a friend; shared the same laugh; and acted in the same manner – even today. Within the church setting, think about the places of worship we choose or people (ministries) we watch on television. Given some time you may find that you purchase the same bible, speak the same messages, and even take on many of the preacher’s mannerisms (good and bad).
Take the time to consider the friendships and associations you have and how they may have affected your life. Ask the Lord to reveal friendships that have possibly snared your soul and seek friendships that inspire you to live as our Father desires.
