Scripture Reading: 1 Samuel 16:14-23
Devotional:- “Then one of the servants answered and said, "Look, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, who is skillful in playing, a mighty man of valor, a man of war, prudent in speech, and a handsome person; and the LORD is with him" (V. 18) NKJV
God has made everyone to be blessed. He made all men with seeds. Jesus became a seed of God to harvest the world for God. Today, we remember His resurrection and are glad. As long as a man have a seed, he cannot lack a financial future, except he refused to grow the skill of planting the seed. Acquiring skill is developing the act of using your seed profitably. Skill is ability to do something faster and better. We can acquire skill by learning from others who are better. We can as well acquire skill by moving with skillful people. We can acquire skill by studying those who has gone ahead of us in what we are doing. We can attend a formal institute of education. But better still, skill are more developed as we relate with those who are doing well in it. It can also be acquired by serving or doing business or trading with our gifts. This will make us to learn by experience, though this may take time.
David, as a young man was able to acquire all the skill we read about him by using and practicing them. Whatever you have found yourself doing, there is a need to become more skillful and smarter (Ecclesiastes 9:10; 10:10). The more skillful you are in your career or business, the more the opportunity will be there for you to prosper. Wake up. Peace
PRAYER: Lord, help me to be exposed to what will make me skillful
“SKILL GIVES YOU THE COMMAND OF THE MARKET”
