Character Is Critical預覽

Wise Counsel Strengthens Character. 

The development of your character shapes your Destiny. When God presents you with an opportunity that will enlarge your borders and expand your territory, it’s your responsibility to steward the opportunity well. God can present you with a God-given, life changing opportunity but it’s your responsibility to steward the opportunity well. 

Develop your character and sharpen your work ethic in this season. Your ability to diligently execute and the development of your character is in your hands. Whether you’re in business, or in government, media, education or in any other arena, God wants to give you the promise but it’s up to you to steward the character of your heart and the diligent work of your hands. 

Allow God to mold you into the leader that He’s called you to be. Execute consistently. Surround yourself with Godly men whose heart reflects the heart and character of God. Iron sharpening mentors and relationships will help you identify character flaws and help you to strengthen skill gaps that are essential for the next level. 

Character and diligence are essential for the next level. Choose not to connect with the ungodly. Your character will sustain you. When you link up with those without Godly character, they will cause you to stagger, stumble, and fall. Before you can grow, your character must be intact. God wants you to connect with Him. Psalm 1:1 AMPC states, “BLESSED (HAPPY, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes], nor stands [submissive and inactive] in the path where sinners walk, nor sits down [to relax and rest] where the scornful [and the mockers] gather.” Choose not to follow after the advice, counsel, patterns, ways, and lifestyle of the ungodly. 

Action:

Pray and ask God to surround you with iron sharpening relationships that will mature you and prune your unproductive areas. Ask God to help you to focus on the areas that need development.
