1 Samuel 16:23
23 And so it was, whenever the spirit from God was upon Saul, that David would take a harp and play it with his hand. Then Saul would become refreshed and well, and the distressing spirit would depart from him.

David pleased Saul to an extent of being an armour bearer.He was gifted in playing the harp. Whenever he played the harp, Saul's distress would depart. An environment is something that can be created. No one succeeds by mistake, success follows an environment. A poverty spirit thrives in an environment where someone is lazy and talkative. Hearing is a principle that brings growth or change. Destruction comes by hearing the voice of man. The moment you listen to what people say you will be destroyed. There are environments for each and every single chapter of your life. In the environment of success you need to reduce your circle. Successful people keep a few people around them, they keep people of influence.
We grow through listening, and you need pay attention to your association. Go and analyse the people whom you talk to everyday. Environment is key. Never underestimate the power of your environment, control your environment. We grow by listening to people who carry valuable information than ours. Be a good listener, that is an environment for a promotion.
Mark 8: 23- 27
23 So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the town. And when He had spit on his eyes and put His hands on him, He asked him if he saw anything.
24 And he looked up and said, “I see men like trees, walking.”
25 Then He put His hands on his eyes again and made him look up. And he was restored and saw everyone clearly. 26 Then He sent him away to his house, saying, “Neither go into the town, nor tell anyone in the town.”
27 Now Jesus and His disciples went out to the towns of Caesarea Philippi; and on the road He asked His disciples, saying to them, “Who do men say that I am?”

Your environment plays a major role in your success, the moment you become born again your environment must change, it begins with you.
Change your environment forever never compromise! You need people that will challenge you, people that will inspire you.
1 Samuel 10:10-11
10 When he and his servant arrived at Gibeah, a procession of prophets met him; the Spirit of God came powerfully upon him, and he joined in their prophesying. 11 When all those who had formerly known him saw him prophesying with the prophets, they asked each other, “What is this that has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”

Saul met a group of prophets and the Spirit of God was upon him and he started prophesying. You can not attract something that is not with the people around you. Go and inspire yourself. Your association is very key. People you associate with dictate your environment. Environment is spiritual. Begin to create your future and change your environment.
