They can be used as a picture of yourself. You will notice that a lot of the time you have the privilege of conversing with people, something just keeps pushing you to continue talking until you overdo it. Then you’ll begin to say what you don't mean to say. Many a time, the volume of words that come out of our mouths is not what we have planned for or decided, but because we have not learned to caution our lips, which is an act of discipline.

GENTLENESS.    

Matthew 11:25-30
DEVOTIONAL:-“Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”  v.29


    One of the attitude of greatness is gentleness. It is an act of self-controlled. It is manifested in a man who has learn when to be quiet and when to talk. A gentle nature is a nature of a rich and mature people (I Peter 3:4). The word of God says, it is very precious in the sight of God. This wise virtue is cultivated by choice.

In our scripture today, Jesus says I am gentle and lowly in heart and when you walk with me you will find rest for your soul. When a man chooses to operate with a gentle Spirit, relating with him makes you learn so much. This is because this virtue will make him to only respond at the right time with wisdom. The people operating the opposite of a gentle Spirit are the proud, loud and always offensive in relationship (Proverbs 10:21, Eccl. 5:3, 7).

Friend, a loud and proud person will lose many precious friends. Make a choice to cultivate a quiet and gentle spirit. This is not been moody, but been in control of your tongue. Not just talking anyhow, but only in wisdom. Observe that gentleness is part of the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22). This means, it can be cultivated by the help of the Holy Spirit. It can be produced in the fear of the Lord and in a heart that is humble before the Lord. A gentle man will always be preserved in many situations. Peace 

PRAYER: Lord, help me to choose to grow a gentle Spirit.

“A GENTLE MAN KNOWS WHEN TO TALK AND WHEN NOT“

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal.

He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.
