• Be careful of those you listen to and allow close to you. Some people’s words are like the piercings of a sword, so choose your friends wisely.
• When sentimental affiliation determines close association, liberties are often abused. If people do not deserve to be close to you, keep them far. 
• Such people end up as evil, opening doors for the enemy. They sugarcoat their evil hearts, disguising their wicked motives. They mean no good. They usually speak from both sides of their mouths. They make everything look like fun but beneath it lies their venom.
• Do not let them stay around you and hatch their eggs or, you will suddenly be surrounded by a brood of viper. They distract you from taking things seriously, acting like they mean no harm. 
• Father, expose them. Uncover their evil strategies. Show them who and what they are. Let the manipulation end. Lord cut off these evil conduit pipes and disconnect them from your people.
• You will end the year in peace surrounded and strengthened by the joy of the Lord. No matter who they are, we cut them off and separate them from our lives today in Jesus name.

Good morning, Prudent.
