Dunamis’ Seeds of Destiny 7 July 2020 Devotional by Pastor Paul Enenche – Character: A Key To Stability In Life
Topic – Character: A Key To Stability In Life
God
will hold the righteous up in times of downsizing, recession,
inflation, depression, stagnation, starvation, and frustration etc.
Things can easily destabilize other people, but God holds up people of
integrity, and nothing can destabilize them.
SCRIPTURE:
Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted
also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide. Psalms 26:1
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Character establishes a person on solid ground in life.
It
has been confirmed that character is not just powerful; character is
power. The real power of a man is the power of his character and not his
financial, muscular or occult power.

The
silence of character is louder than the utterance of compromise. This
means, the silence of people of character weighs heavier than the
utterance of characterless people.
Now, what is the power of positive character?
Character guarantees stability.
A
man of character is a man of stability; he shall not slide (Psalms
26:1). To slide is to fall on a slippery ground. A person of character
is not permitted to slip or fall. Character brings stability.
Please
note that character establishes a person on solid ground in life (Psalm
26:11-12). A person of character stands on solid ground. On the other
hand, a person without character stands on slippery ground. This means,
if you see a person without character today, nothing about his life is
sure. There is nothing about him that is guaranteed or sure. You cannot
guarantee that where he is today is where he will be tomorrow. He may be
up today and down tomorrow. It is only character that guarantees
stability in life.
Samson, for example, was up
at one time in his life but at another time, he fell because character
bankruptcy stripped him of his placement in life. It is only integrity
that takes a person up and keeps him there. Psalm 41:12 says, And as for
me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face
for ever.
“…thou upholdest me…” means, “God
will hold me up.” This means, “God will hold me up when the enemy comes
against me.” And surely, God will hold the righteous up. God will hold
the righteous up in times of downsizing, recession, inflation,
depression, stagnation, starvation, and frustration etc. Things can
easily destabilize other people, but God holds up people of integrity,
and nothing can destabilize them.
My counsel is, make up your mind to live in character and integrity by all means.
Remember this: Character establishes a person on solid ground in life.

QUOTE:
What separates one person from another, in terms of results on earth,
outcome in life and impact on others, is manners or character. Culled
from “WHO ARE YOU?” by Dr Paul Enenche,
DAILY BIBLE READING: Proverbs 28-30.
AMAZING
FACT: Armenia became the first nation to adopt Christianity as a state
religion in the year 301 AD; and consequently, has produced notable
people, quality educational system and good infrastructures.
PROPHETIC WORD/DECLARATION: Grace to uphold quality character is released upon you right now in Jesus’ Name.
