Outline for MFM Devotional Today 11 November 2022
We have seen copious examples of individuals who could not reach their goals in life and enjoy all-round fulfilment because of certain character disorder they did not correct. Apart from the examples we examined from the Bible, there are other examples outside the Bible. Literary writers like William Shakespeare and Thomas Hardy also revealed in their works how negative character destroys lives. Shakespeare’s characters like Macbeth and Julius Caesar readily come to mind.
Thomas Hardy presents a similar case of tragic fall as a result of negative character through the protagonist called Michael Henchard, in his prose work titled “The Mayor of Casterbridge.” The simple lesson in all these cases is that any character deficit you do not deliberately confront and remove from your life will deal a terrible blow to your destiny one day. All these things are written for your learning. How can you develop a godly character?
We shall answer this important question today. First, you must be born again. With genuine salvation, the Holy Spirit will come to dwell in your heart and help you to develop godly character and demonstrate Christlikeness always. The grace to have a godly character is not available for unbelievers. So, new birth is necessary for you. Second, you must be a word addict. The power to be like Jesus and imitate Him in your thoughts, words and deeds is imputed to you as you read and live by the word of God daily.
Readers, hearers and doers of God word will have godly character as the reward of their spiritual exercise or effort. Third, as a believer who wants to exhibit godly character consistently, you should live a life of holiness and righteousness. This step will enable you to enjoy God’s presence and power as well as to exhibit His character. Fourth, you should be a prayer addict. The effectual fervent prayer of the righteous avails much.
You can pray negative character out of your life and pray godly character into your life. Prayer works wonder for true children of God. Fifth, you should befriend the Holy Spirit and get His baptism.
Memory Verse
Galatians 5:22-23 – “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance, against such there is no law.
