Throughout my life I have met many people and also been in many unfavorable situations. As I look back I can recall that there has been a very important constant in my life. This constant is the fact that who ever has meant me harm did not remain in my atmosphere. Since I have been living for Christ I realize that even before I committed myself to living for Jesus , He always removed people out of my life that meant to do me harm in any way. Even if I had a bad experience with an individual, eventually the individual would be removed from my atmosphere/surroundings. Now that I am saved I have came into the knowledge of praying certain prayers that can remove certain individuals out of my atmosphere that may not have my interests or the kingdom of God's interests in mind which are also my interests. The sooner that an individual realizes that in life the only prize that matters is the ultimate prize of living in eternity with God, the sooner they should begin to separate themselves from anything that hinders them from reaching this ultimate prize. Family members, friends, and ideas should not be the things that hinder us from reaching the ultimate goal of reigning with Jesus. When an individual has no hope/relationship with Jesus they in turn remain attached to the things that keep them from abiding with Him forever. I just want to encourage you to begin to detach yourself from anything that may cause you to miss this ultimate prize, because the prize is too precious.

Amen! It has been happening to me and although I feel sad, I move on because it's working for my good. I would rather by all by myself in AZ then have a lot of "friends" and on my way to HELL! Most of my friends are out of state and they have their eyes on the prize, they might not be with me, but I know one who sticks closer than a brother and He's NEVER failed me. Moreover, they are out of state, but that's just a call way when I need prayer, encouragement, and spiritual guidance.
So when God moves people, Don't look for them and don't try to put them back... they don't fit! Stay on your mission, either they get with you or they get RAN over! That was a much needed topic, God is good.
Blessings
