TOPIC: ARE YOU ALONE?

 

Bible Reading: Exodus 4:10-16

 

Memorise:

“And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.” Genesis 2:18

MESSAGE

After God created man, He watched how he went about his daily duties until one day, he concluded that it was not good for him to be alone. Though the memory verse is usually used within the context of marriage, I would like to establish that God used it to emphasize that loneliness is not good for anyone. No one was created to be alone as no one can function as an island; you need the company of someone else.

You need another iron to sharpen yours as written in Proverbs 27:17 One of the reasons you must not be alone is that the other person will help to check mate your responses to temptation. You therefore need a genuine Christian who will serve as a check on you so that you can build a good character.

More so, if you’re alone and not using your time positively, Satan or your flesh will engage you because, as people say, an idle hand is the devils workshop. However, you must be careful of the company you choose because wrong company would destroy your destiny.

 

Point: It is not wrong to have friends. Having bad friends is what is wrong.
