SEPARATED FOR A PURPOSE
Leviticus 20:7-8, 22-24

"Consecrate yourselves and be holy, because I am the Lord your God." Leviticus 20:7, NIV

If a cube of lead is placed on a cube of gold, the two metals slowly but inevitably begin to penetrate each other. In the same manner, we tend to imbibe the spirit, share the opinions or absorb the qualities of our intimate associates. Though we may believe that our gold will enrich their lead, the opposite is far more likely to prove true—their lead will debase our gold.

God wants the believers to live blameless before Him. It would enable them serve as models to unbelievers around them. As you go about your routines today, bear in mind that you owe God the responsibility to be holy both in speech and in conduct. Remember that obedience is the first step towards holy living and both are apt demonstrations of the believer’s love for God. Separate yourself from debased friends and associates and the Lord will be pleased with you.

Birthday Blessing: I will give you the treasures of darkness, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the LORD, the God of Israel, who summoned you by name. Isaiah 45:3
