About this listen
Today’s devotion explores one of the most powerful influences in your life: your friendships. Scripture teaches that the people you walk with shape who you become. Proverbs tells us, “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” God designed friendships to strengthen our character, sharpen our faith, and draw us closer to Him.
In this message, we look at four essential truths:
1. Godly Friends Sharpen Your Character
Wise friends challenge you to grow, correct you with love, and help you walk in righteousness.
2. Godly Friends Strengthen Your Faith
True friends lift you when you fall, pray for you when you’re weak, and encourage you when your faith feels low.
3. Godly Friends Speak the Truth in Love
Honest correction from a loving friend protects your spiritual growth and helps you stay on the right path.
4. Godly Friends Point You Toward Jesus
The best friendships are Christ-centered — encouraging you toward love, purpose, and spiritual maturity.
Memory Verse:
Proverbs 27:17 — “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”
May this devotion inspire you to choose friendships that help you grow and to become the kind of friend who strengthens others in Christ.
