The Secret Power of Gift

*MEDITATION*

Proverbs 18:16 "Do you want to meet an important person? Take a gift and it will be easy." GNB

Point to ponder on: There is a difference between a gift and a bribe; motive marks the difference.

The scripture gives us principles for living and we must be careful to identify the adulterated principle of the world which is a twist of the word of God. The scripture teaches several social ethics which giving is one of them. However, the motive is key in giving. There is a scriptural way to go about things that will yield maximum result if followed accurately. When you plan to meet someone important the scripture admonishes us to apply wisdom and the wisdom key that opens the way for you is a gift. It paves way easily for you to access the person. The recipient feels important that you are thinking about him and that you care. Such a person will give you audience even if he has to re-schedule another time for you in order to give you quality attention. When next you are going to meet someone special and you desire great deal, go with a gift. Your motive is to use it to open the door for yourself and not to manipulate or compel the person to do your bidding. Wisdom is profitable to direct.

I celebrate you.

Good morning. Do have a blissful day.
