```DESTINY DISCOVERY AND MOLDING MESSAGE (DDMM)```
♦ *TOPIC: THE ROOT - THE FRUIT AND THE BRANCHES*
*_By: Judah Olatunde_*
Romans 11:16 For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
11:17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree.
The essence or benefits of having a spiritual father or mentor cannot be overemphasized and this is because, your father provides a ladder for your lift, your prophet determines your profit. You can't have certain access and profit without your prophet.
A father or mentor can easily influence a follower both in terms of character, likes and dislikes. But in as much as it is good to have a prophet or mentor, it is therefore necessary to know that, you have to be careful so you don't fall because your father or someone you're looking up to fell. This is also the reason why it is very easy to live holy if the one you're following is living holy.
So many people have started living in error just because someone they look up to is living in error. You will hear people do certain unreasonable things and when you ask them, you will find out that, they did what they did just because the person they are following is doing the same things. The root will always affect the fruits.
YOU CAN'T HAVE A GOOD FRUIT IF YOUR ROOT IS BAD. Your root affects both your fruits and your branches.
*Counsel: You need to follow those who have solid character and are not ready to compromise their integrity. You need those who have made up their minds to please God and not self. And besides, you can't afford to destroy your destiny just because the one you're following has gone astray.*
*_Prayer point: Father, I ask that you would guide me on who i submit to and help me not to go astray even if the one I'm following is going astray. keep walking by faith_*
DAILY BIBLE READING PLAN: Psalm 105 and Rom 14
