Message summary & scripture references
The vision that God has given to you requires faith to achieve. However, if you have people in your circle of influence who are casting doubt over your vision, either in words or actions, their unbelief will contaminate your faith.
When this happens, your once strong faith becomes ineffective and your vision fails. You need to remove unbelieving people from your circle of influence in order to avoid this scenario, so you can achieve success in your vision and receive all the things for which you are believing in God for.

[6] Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
[7] Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

Luke 10:8-13 NLT
[8] “If you enter a town and it welcomes you, eat whatever is set before you.
[9] Heal the sick, and tell them, ‘The Kingdom of God is near you now.’
[10] But if a town refuses to welcome you, go out into its streets and say,
[11] ‘We wipe even the dust of your town from our feet to show that we have abandoned you to your fate. And know this-the Kingdom of God is near!’
[12] I assure you, even wicked Sodom will be better off than such a town on judgment day.
