The Wrong Company – A Vision Killer

SATURDAY 21^ST JUNE 2025

TOPIC: THE WRONG COMPANY – A VISION KILLER

 SCRIPTURE: He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.  Proverbs 13:20

 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: ‘Herod’ can make your star disappear. Beware of ‘Herod’!

Our anchor scripture confirms the impact of company on life and destiny. True, your company determines what you become or how you end in life.

The wrong company negatively affects vision, destiny and even life itself. If a man is not careful about his choice of friends, then he is not concerned about his future.

Now, let us look at one example of the wrong company in Scripture and how it affected a vision. It is the story of the wise men from the East and King Herod (Mathew 2:1-9).

The wise men who came from the East to visit the newborn King of kings, Jesus were led by a star. But instead of following the star strictly, they entered the house of Herod to ask where the King should be born. The question is, who told them that Herod could do what the star was doing for them? With their human wisdom, they stepped off their track and went into the house of Herod.

Guess what happened next: When they stepped into Herod’s house, the star that was leading them could no longer be sighted; it disappeared. It was only when they stepped out of Herod’s house that the star reappeared (Mathew 2:9).

You see, you can never complete in the energy of the flesh what was started in the power of the Spirit. Don’t ever let the flesh finish what the Spirit started.

Beloved, ‘Herod’ can make your star disappear. Beware of Herod! There are people whose association with you can cause your visions to disappear. There are people whose association with you can stop your shining and terminate your distinction. That will never be your portion.

Beloved, the wrong company brings distraction, but the right company brings distinction. So, avoid the wrong company at all costs and embrace the right company by all righteous means.

Remember this: ‘Herod’ can make your star disappear. Beware of ‘Herod’!

ASSIGNMENT (S):

1. Avoid the wrong company and embrace the right company.
2. Be careful who you tell your vision to.
3. Ask God to reveal to you friends who are enemies in disguise.

PRAYER: Lord, preserve my visions unto fulfilment. Reveal to me any vision killers around me that I need to avoid so I can fulfil Your Purpose for my life, Lord, in Jesus’ Na me.
