Sometimes in life, we can’t always have control over those who we have around us like our friends, co-workers, family members, etc. We necessarily don’t have to be unruly or rude to these people who are not good to be around because dealing with these category of people can be very difficult, especially when there's no other choice but to be around them often for several hours or perhaps throughout the week or even for life.
The
Bible encourages us to live peaceably with everyone, as much as we can
control but also specifically warns about letting in bad influences
which would ultimately affect us negatively. However, when stuck in such
situations, it takes God’s wisdom to navigate around such unhealthy
influences recalling the cases of Eve to Adam, Saul to David and
Joseph's brothers.
This was the message of
Evangelist Peter Kolajo (Omo-Jesu) during the ongoing 4days special
revival tagged "GOD, ASSIGN GOOD PEOPLE UNTO ME". He further prayed that
God should assign destiny helpers to everyone and violently remove
those who will attempt to hinder or truncate God's plan and purpose in
our lives.
