Goodseed Daily Devotional 23rd March 2023
TOPIC: THE IMPACT OF RELATIONSHIP
SCRIPTURE: Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
Proverbs 27:17.
We have been looking at critical wisdom tips for profitable relationship from our previous studies. We saw right kind of people to relate with and those not to relate with in order to arrive at quality destiny.
Today, we shall look at yet another kind of people to relate with, and they are people who sharpen your potentials, amplify your strength and suffocate your weaknesses.
These are people who are focused on bringing out the best in you in terms of the enhancement of strength and the sharpening and deployment of potentials.
These are people who can tell you, “You can do it. I can see great talent and ability in you. Rise up. Wake up. Give it your best. Don’t slack.”
By encouraging you, they sharpen your potentials, amplify your strength and suffocate your weakness. When you say you don’t know how to do a thing, they tell you: “Don’t worry. What you can do are more than what you cannot do.”
On the other hand, there are people who want to choke your potential, arrest your strength and amplify your weakness. These are the people who can tell you things like: “You don’t know how to talk. See, you can’t even dress well. What kind of singing is that?”
Beloved, refuse to follow the negative things people say about you. If you continue to listen to the wrong people, they will suffocate your potential and choke your strength.
Make up your mind to relate wisely and Relate with people who sharpen your potentials, amplify your strength and suffocate your weaknesses.
PRAYER: Lord, I receive the grace to relate with people who sharpen my potentials, amplify my strength and suffocate my weaknesses. Help me Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
