*THE BLESSING OF VALUABLE RELATIONSHIPS.* _Walk with the wise and become wise; associate with fools and get in trouble (Proverbs 13:20 NLT)._ Beautiful evening beloved. Another lesson that we learn from Acts 9 is that one of the first things God would usually help us to do as we begin to focus on His purpose for our lives is to establish us in valuable relationships to help us effectively pursue His purpose for our lives. For Paul, God sent Ananias to pray for him and then brought Barnabas to help him integrate into the early church community. So, in the early days of your pursuit of purpose, more than anything else, you must give priority to investing in the valuable relationships that God brings your way. It is important that you have the humility to recognise that there is a lot for you to learn and that people would usually be the conduit through whom God will prepare you for the tasks ahead of you. Let God guide you into the right relationships and be determined to get the best out of those relationships. *Pray by faith with me thus:* "Lord, open my eyes to see the strategic relationships you have planned to help me become all that you have planned for me to be." Amen. *Keypoint:* God usually prepares us for the pursuit of His purpose for our lives by establishing us in strategic relationships. _______________ #justpurposedaily ©AimPurpose IfeOluwa 🗓 May 30, 2025 https://bit.ly/hi-aimpurpose
