⁵Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time. ⁶Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.
-Colossians 4:5‭-‬6 | NKJV

Another effect names have is on your SOCIAL LIFE. Whether you are an introvert, an extrovert, a sanguine, a melancholic, choleric, or a phlegmatic person, depends on the name you have. Even the temperament itself is a name. Depending on the seven categories of humans based on the week they were born depicting the various destinies, has a significant bearing on your interaction with people. Sunday borns are natural leaders. Majority of all leaders are Sunday borns. Majority of all leaders are firstborns. Majority of all leaders are those bearing leadership names. If your name has a leadership skill, there is no way you have to force your way through to get a promotion.

There are many people who have been doing all they can, but they cannot be promoted. It is not any evil spirit that is worrying you. It is your name. If you have any binding and casting to do, do it for your name and not someone else. Just change your name. There is a name that has no bearing on how you can lead people so if any leadership role is entrusted into your hands, you can’t flow accordingly. You can be taught how to lead but there will always be a distinction between a natural leader and an learned leader. You wonder why a certain family have a certain social behaviour that runs through. If you check well you will know they have an ancestral name. Every family has a name.

Do you wonder why you always have mood swings? One time you are happy, another time you are sad. It is your name. Do you wonder why you win souls and yet, your own behaviour drives the person put of the church? It is your name. Do you wonder why you can’t keep a lasting relationship? It is because of your name. You can be friends with someone in a jiffy but a small issue then you have to destroy the building blocks of relationship you have taken time to lay. Jesus means saviour or the God who saves. To follow Him, you must have a very good sociable life in order to save others. Greater percentage of all judgements (human or divine) is based on our social life.

Because many believers bear certain names that have awful meanings, they struggle in their Christian lives. There are so many believers who have not yet checked the meaning of their names. Even the name of the man that you will bear after marriage has to be checked. Because that is the name you will also have. If he is a social deviant person, that is what you are also going to be. Your behaviour with people is dependent on the letters that form your name. If you are ever going to have a healthy relationship with people, check the names of the people you are dealing with. If not, you will never ever understand why they behave so. Your name will make/unmake your social life.

•| Prayer Diary |•
Lift up prayers for good sociable skills that is linked to your name to be activated so you can have a healthy relationship with all people in the name of Jesus Christ.

Quote
To understand people and how they behave, you need to find out the meaning of their names.
