Top of the day to you, my brothers.
This is brother Parker here with
episode
of Kingdom in
Action Podcast.
And this month, we're winding up the last
week of July with the wisdom
of Proverbs.
That's right. We've been going through the book
of Proverbs
because these are scriptures
that we can apply to our everyday lives
that will help us to be wise as
we move forward. So, thank you for joining
me today and sharing in the word of
god.
I also I will also ask you my
brothers if you can please share, like, leave
a review for this podcast
because when you do that, it helps amazing
people like you also find this podcast. Helps
our family to grow, helps the podcast to
move up the ladder, and I really appreciate
if you can do that for
a brother here.
So
alright. So where are we today in Proverbs?
We are still in
we're in 13th chapter and we are on
verse 20.
And I'm calling this one,
who's in your circle?
Your circle of friends, your circle of influence.
Who's
in your
circle?
Or who is in your circle.
And verse 20 reads as follows.
Walk with the wise
and become wise.
For a companion of fools,
suffer harm.
I'll read that one more time.
This is verse 20.
Walk with the wise and become wise.
For a companion of fools
suffer
harm.
Self explanatory.
You've heard this from motivational
speakers. If you want to become something,
then you need to be around people that
are doing that particular thing you're doing
so that you can learn from them to
become what they are is what you wanna
become.
And so
as you go through life,
sometimes
you're gonna have to
let some friends go.
Because as
you learn,
grow
in the word of God,
you're gonna change. You're you're gonna change. You
could think you might not, but you're gonna
change. If you are truly reading his word
and you're you're
serving in the kingdom and you're doing all
the things god so have you do,
you're gonna change. And how you see things
and how you view things
are gonna be different.
And if
you're around friends that are not doing that,
they're gonna become a distraction.
Some are gonna become jealous because some of
them are gonna see how you're
prospering
and doing well
because of your
changed life, your new commitment to God.
And they're gonna try to,
sabotage.
They're gonna be jealousy,
hatred,
all the above.
And so you wanna make sure that you
are always surrounded by
like minded people.
And so
there you go. That's why the kingdom in
in action
family is here.
We're trying to draw men with like minded
faith.
Men that are trying to serve god, wants
to do god's will.
This is where you need to come because
here, we're gonna learn,
grow, and encourage one another. That's our motto.
Learn, grow, and encourage one another here at
the kingdom and in action.
And that keyword is action. And we're taking
action on a lot of things. But you
wanna be around men that are pursuing
and doing the same things that you're doing
because that's the only way
that you're gonna be encouraged.
You're gonna have people you can go to
that understand what you're going through, and they
can give you wise
advice.
People that's gonna give you godly advice and
not worldly advice.
And it's just nice to hang around people
that are pursuing the same things that you're
pursuing.
Because believe it or not,
brothers, you could tell these other people that
don't think that
godly people have fun. We have fun as
well. Sometimes I think we have more fun
because it's clean, godly fun. It's not centered
around how much beer you can drink. It's
not centered around,
scandalous women at the club and all this
other stuff. We get together, and it's just
nice, clean family fun. We do games. We
do this. We do that. And in some
cases, there is,
depending on what the situation is. There may
be some wine there or something with but
nobody's drinking to excess to where they're stumbling,
fumbling, throwing up all over the place.
We just have fun together.
And so,
you know,
that's I I mean, it's it's self explanatory.
You know,
you either gonna be with people that's going
in your direction
or you're gonna be hindered by the people
in your life that's not going in your
direction.
So, again, who's in your circle?
Who's in your circle that you can go
to and be influenced by that's gonna take
you in the direction
that you wanna go? So remember,
verse 20,
walk with the wise to become wise
for a companion of fools
suffer harm. And we're not gonna suffer harm
here, Not at the kingdom in an action.
Again, we're here to learn, grow, and encourage
one another. So
that's it from Proverbs.
I hope you learned something today. Take that
word, chew on it, meditate on it, and
apply it to your daily life. Alright.
We are out of here.
