Monetize Your Contacts 3

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

The place of appearance in making, maintaining and sustaining contacts that could be monetized is important. The Biblical Joseph was properly groomed and dressed to meet with Pharaoh. The Bible records that Joseph shaved – apparently they did not shave regularly in prison; that is if they had anything to shave with in prison. Do not forget that sharp objects are not allowed in prison. He also had a change of clothes from prison clothes into decent clothes that could make him presentable to Pharaoh. Please see Genesis Chapters 41 verse 14.

Ruth was instructed to shower, apply cream or oils; of course sweet smelling ones as well as wear her best garment before going to see Boaz at the threshing floor. Her appearance that night which was different from the appearance she put on while gleaning made a considerable impact on Boaz as he quickly went to settle the case of the inheritance so Ruth could become his wife.

The virtuous woman was always well groomed and regally dressed. Though she made clothes for sale and made a fortune out of making and selling clothes, she ensured that she and every member of her family including her maids were well clothed. Please see Proverbs Chapter 31.

The queen from Sheba was awed by the splendor of Solomon’s court. She took note of virtually everything and everyone in Solomon’s court and noted that God indeed blessed Solomon with unrivaled wisdom and wealth. Please read 1^st Kings Chapter 10 verses 1 to 10 and Matthew Chapter 6 verses 28 to 29.

Give Him Thanks

 ^1-3 Thank you! Everything in me says “Thank you!”

    Angels listen as I sing my thanks.
I kneel in worship facing your holy temple
    and say it again: “Thank you!”
Thank you for your love,
    thank you for your faithfulness;
Most holy is your name,
    most holy is your Word.
The moment I called out, you stepped in;
    you made my life large with strength.

David was on a find and rescue mission without a clue as to how and where to catch up with the raiders who burnt down Ziklag and took hostage the women and children. As David and his men searched the wilds, they stumbled upon or I dare say God ordered their steps to a sick Egyptian slave of one of the Amalekite raiders who burnt down Ziklag. Abandoned because he was sick and too weak to cope with their pace, the young man lay helpless in the wild. Surprisingly, David and his men cared for the young man and when he was strong enough, he gave David and his men details of their raid and where the raiders were headed. With an exact description, David and his men pursued the raiders and caught up with them; and recovered everything that was stolen as well as additional bounty. The young Egyptian stuck with David.
