  PEACE Proverbs 12:15-25 Devotional:- “Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil, But counselors of peace have joy” (v.20) NKJV Two virtues often work together, and they are hardly separable; they are peace and joy. You cannot have one without the other. The moment one of them is with you, it will draw the second. This is because they are both products of God’s presence. Wherever the kingdom of God is established either in the house or office, surely peace and joy of the Lord will be present there (Galatians 5:22, Romans 14:17). The scripture we read today said there shall be joy for those who promote peace. Jesus says Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God (Matthew 5:9). And you know that God dwell in the heart of His children (I Corinthians 3:16). You also know that God’s presence commands joy (Psalms 16:11).

MAKING PROFIT

Scripture Reading: Proverbs 14:23-29
Devotional:- “Work brings profit, but mere talk leads to poverty” (V. 23) NLT


    It's amazing to see how many of us don't think about profit at all. The moment some people sees money, they are just okey. They don't think of if the work and the earning is profitable. So many people doing businesses don't know the difference between capital and profit. What some people called salary is never a good income at all. Yet, they keep doing it.

It is important that you know that lack of profit is unrighteousness (Matthew 25:30). The unprofitable servant was to be casted into hell fire. This is actually because ‘lack’ will make many go to hell than many sins. So many are true followers of Christ but are secretly frustrated and hatting God in the secret of their heart. So many terrible atrocity in the society today are perpetrated by people from Christian home with Christian name. These are people who have no clue to how their financial life will bring joy to them. 

Friend, don't let this happen to you. It is important that you look into your business and define your profit. It may be spiritual, moral, relational, but there must also be a financial profit. If anyone is not making profit, God is not to be blamed. It is our carelessness that could turn a business to such.

Sometimes, you are enduring for a time in a particular place, such time is a time of sowing and learning. The truth is that, it should not be forever. Take this to God in prayers. Sit down to think it through. No matter what save 20 percent of your income. Be sure you are making profit. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give the understanding to my profit.

“IT IS YOUR PROFIT THAT DETERMINES YOUR FINANCIAL FUTURE”
