PROVERBS 18:16 New Living Translation Giving a gift can open doors; it gives access to important people! New American Standard Bible A man's gift makes room for him And brings him before great men. King James Bible A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.
How is the fulfillment of vision meant to work in practical terms? Proverbs 18:16 is a powerful statement that reveals the answer: "A man's gift makes room for him" (NKJV). What you were designed to be known for is your gift.
God has put a gift or talent in every person that the world will make room for.
It is this gift that will enable you to fulfill your vision.
It will make a way for you in life. It is in exercising this gift that you will find real fulfillment, purpose, and contentment in your work.
It is interesting to note that the Bible does not say that a man's education makes room for him, but that his gift does.
Somehow we have swallowed the idea that education is the key to success. Our families and societies have reinforced this idea to us, but we will have to change our perspective if we are to be truly successful.
Education is not the key to success.
