Ministering Across the Street and Around the World requires a close daily walk with God, and the On The Go Daily Devotions wants to help Christians with their walk with God. These daily devotions help Christians gain greater understanding of God's call to ministry and His desire for everyone to serve Him. Insight will be gleaned from international evangelist and author Keith Cook, Joan Cook and the entire On The Go Ministries team.

Friends Are Friends Forever
On The Go Daily Devotion for May 31, 2012

Friends Are Friends Forever by Keith Cook
"Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend." Proverbs 27:17
Friends Are Friends Forever but they don't cook, clean, work, or live with you every day. One of the greatest struggles you will have in your adult life is balancing the needs of your work, family, self, and friends.
Follow these rules for friends to make your life more productive:
1. Do not let one or two friends monopolize your time
2. Do not let any plans or activities with friends jeopardize your relationship with your family or faith
3. Discipline the time you spend with your friends each week
4. Make sure you make time to get with your friends each week
5. Never talk to your friends about things that you ought to be talking to your spouse or parents
6. Help each of your friends be all they can be in Christ
7. Pray for your friends
Friends Are Friends Forever. Practice these principles, and you will be richly rewarded, along with your friends.
Personal Prayer Focus: Take a few moments to pray for your friends that you have in your life right now.
On The Go Prayer Focus: Tanzania Festival Team. Today we will be holding an Area-Wide Leadership Conference with local pastors and church leaders. Pray that God will continue to raise up godly men and women to reach their nation for Christ.
Thank you for taking the time to pray for this important division of On The Go Ministries. For more information on any our ministries here at On The Go, you may send your questions to info@onthego.org.
