GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

BACK TO SCHOOL

BACK TO SCHOOL

Ecclesiastes 10:10-15
Devotional:- “If the ax is dull, And one does not sharpen the edge, Then he must use more strength; But wisdom brings success” (v.10) NKJV.

    Do you know that there can be no effective flight if there is no good ground or a kind of background from which the flying object will take off? One of the components for a good foundation for taking off in life is education or skill development. Some people often think that education is just about obtaining a certificate that enables them to find employment. So they tell themselves, “I am not looking for work, so I don’t need education”. I am doing my business, so I don't need education. But is this true?

The scripture we read today says if an axe is dull and unsharpened, there will be a need to apply more strength before it can perform, but skill will bring success. Listen, the major purpose of education is to build your mind skillfully. It is like sharpening your axe or cutlass to work better for you. So, no matter what your business, trade or career is, if you are not going to remain on a spot, you need to go back to school. You could be informed by attending seminars, reading books, or going back to sit under lecturers in the school. The main among them is searching for and sitting with a relevant book till you gain a better understanding of what you are doing.

This will build your skills for effectiveness. Skill is the ability to do something with speed and accuracy. This will make you overtake your equals. Illiteracy is a disease. Education will open you to more opportunities. If the governor of your state needs a fashion designer, for example, only the educated will win the contract. Don’t remain a servant of your junior forever. You are not too old to be back in school to pursue that career, it could be the only thing you need to cross into your next level. Decide to progress and you will find grace. 

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO HUMBLE MYSELF TO LEARN.

“THE SKILLFUL WILL ALWAYS BE THE NEEDED AT THE TOP”
