A true perception of a man dictates how he will be described. A man's behavior says a lot about him and this determines how he will be described.

Do you even know that a man's attitude towards an animal will dictate the animal's response to him, sometimes? When a lion sees a man, by nature, it is expected to fear and run away for him. On the other hand, when the man poses to be a danger to it, it will respond negatively and violently. The results can be better imagined.

Among men, sometimes there are mischief makers who do not see anything good in others. They are exceptions and are exempted.

However, there is no gainsaying the fact that a man's behavior has a direct link to his descriptions. It is not possible to divorce a person from his attitude which will give a vivid description of him.

A man of evil description who fails to turn on a new leave is a a very great risk of losing his life suddenly and being destroyed forever. Such a person never considers his end.

This was the case with a rich but foolish man in the Holy Bible. The Scriptures disclose, "Now the name of the man was Nabal;...the man was churlish and evil in his doings, and he was of the house of Caleb." 1 Samuel 25:3

The man acted his descriptions to the core when he repaid David's evil for the good David and his men did for him through Nabal's servants and his animals in the wilderness.

The servant of Nabal's reported that David and his men were a wall of protection all the days they were together.

On a feast day, David sent a few of his servants to request a small gift from the evil man. He refused to part with any of his possessions and sent insulting words back to David.

Although Abigail, his wife, acted right to appease David and his men, ten days later, the Lord killed Nabal. That was the end of a man who was acknowledged by all and sundry to be "churlish and evil in his doings". His descriptions match (confirm) his actions and dictate his sudden end because he refused to change for the better.

Beloved, is it not essential that you examine how you are described by people near and far? How does your Creator describe you? There may be a couple of people who are mischief makers around you who can never see anything good in what you do. They are in the minority. If you please the Lord your God and people who are on the Lord's side, all is well with you. May your description be pleasant to the Lord and His people who fear Him in the name of Jesus Christ. Stay blessed and prepared for the imminent coming of the Lord.
