Building Strategic Alliances

INSPIRE Devotionals With Emmanuel Afiawari Wednesday, January 21, 2026 Topic: BUILDING STRATEGIC ALLIANCES (Part 2)! Memory Verse: ‭‭"‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven" - Ecclesiastes‬ ‭3:1‬ ‭KJV‬‬ Bible Text: Ecclesiastes‬ ‭11:4‬ ‭KJV‬‬ 4. ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap. INSPIRATION: You can be anything but never be a lone ranger! Form good, healthy, and productive alliances. Rebuild and mend broken relationships. Many are dry and unproductive today because they allowed pride ruin their partnerships. Don't be deceived to think you're sufficient in yourself (2 Cor. 3: 5). Build a team. Synergy is the new world order. Isolated individuals short-circuit themselves and may even dry up while still alive. An isolated person isn't as much different from one that companions with fools. One thing common to both is starvation and paucity of the right information that matter to giving them an advantage. I challenge  you to be a people-person and learn the act of winning with people this year. Collaborate more than you're willing to compete. Seek out persons, groups, institutions and corporations that deliver key values with excellence and join them. By all means, make the most of your time this early as you go into the year. Wisely invest time! TODAY'S TAKE HOME: Circumstances may conspire to hinder you, but you must determine and device ways to thrive. It's time to act differently! PRAYER: Dear Lord, I receive grace to forge new and better alliances. I'm emboldened by the Holy Spirit to take very profitable and strategic initiatives in partnership to achieve greater goals this year, in Jesus name.
