THE RIGHT ATTACHMENT
2 Corinthians 6:14-18 (14) – Don’t team up with those who are unbelievers. How can righteousness be a partner with wickedness? How can light live with darkness? (NLT)
Read: 1 Samuel 20-23
David and Jonathan were best friends who complimented each other. Jonathan, in particular, was instrumental in preventing Saul from killing David. Saul tried to eliminate David to preserve the throne for his son, Jonathan. Yet the boy looked after his friend against the plan of his father. The two are a great example of a desirable bond one should have on the journey of life and destiny.
The people you hang out with or the activities you engage in really matter. Check if the people are disciplined and whether the activities are rooted in Christ’s principles. This is significant because the associations you maintain have the power to shape your life. For example, if you are aspiring to choose your spouse, you need to investigate prayerfully and depend on the Holy Spirit to guide you while being watchful. In line with today’s Bible reading, don’t ever think you can change that person after marriage. If they can’t adjust now, what makes you feel they will later? Think and act promptly!
There is also a constant need to examine yourself internally to remove unnecessary attachments. Evacuate anything that hinders your divine calling and purpose. It could be a negative mindset, poor eating habits, worldliness, inordinate affection, or poor time management, among other things. Pray and study the Scriptures while relying on the Holy Spirit. He is the mirror that reveals any extra unwanted baggage in your life. In addition, talk to people who can observe you and counsel you in the right direction.
PRAYER

1. Holy Spirit, beam Your searchlight on me to see and cut out undue attachments in my spiritual and physical life.
