Sometimes You Need CHARACTER, Not
Prayer.
On Sunday, my pastor told a story of a
young man who was desperately in search
of a job, he submitted his CV to a company,
expecting his call up for interview.
Unknown to him, someone
in the company recommended him, so he
was preferred. The company called him
without hinting, dude was rude on phone;
so impolite, and that was how he lost the
job.
He got to know later that it was the
company, and was so remorseful, but it
was too late. He went to my pastor to pray
for him, that he'd find another opening..
According to my pastor,
He prayed for him. But he told him that no
matter how we pray, attitude has its place.
This the strong truth a lot of Christians fail
2 understand.
Prayer is good,but prayer isn't d answer 2
everything.
Somewhere in d scriptures, the Bible says
that before we pray, he will answer..
You know why?
Because we've exhibited attitudes that will
attract miracles..
People, sometimes for miracles to happen,
what you need is character, not prayer, not
speaking in tongues.
God is a spirit, and for him to bless you, he
needs to pass through a man.
If you lack gud relationships with men,
you'll hardly be blessed. God works with
relationship. You must learn to treat people
wit courtesy..
The Shunammite woman must have been
praying for a child all through her life.
I'm sure. She was a prominent woman and
surely she had money but couldn't buy a
child.
You know what made her have a child?
She took care of Elisha, a man of God. She
respected him, she was hospitable, she was
kind, she had character!
Elisha, spoke into her womb and in a year,
she had a child.
Assuming she wasn't hospitable? Polite,
and kind?
She would've still been praying and fasting,
binding and casting demons that don't
exist.
Sometimes, we are our demons. Our
attitudes
are our destiny killers.
Some of you have insulted people that were
divinely orchestrated to help you..
Some of you are keeping malice with your
destiny helper..
Some of you are still suffering, not because
you
lack talent but because you lack character.
Talent is attractive. Anyone can be talented,
but character is a proof of discipline. A
proof of responsibility.
Character sustains the attraction talent
gives
you.
Character is virtue, and sometimes what we
call FAVOUR is triggered by virtue.
Mary was a Virgin. She had virtue! Which
attracted the favour of being the mother
of the Saviour of the world!!
In all thy getting, get 'wise' get character..
Respect people.
Treat strangers with courtesy.. Be kind..
Your Angel won't always come like an
Angel..
Look down on nobody, anyone can change
your life.
It was the maid of Naaman, that told him
where to get healing. Naaman was a great
man but had leprosy. He must have visited
the greatest hospital in the world as of that
time.Who would've ever thought that the
solution to his problem was in the mouth
of his maid?
Sometimes the solutions of our problems
are trapped in the mouths of mere people,
but many of us are not humble enough to
see it.
Prayer is not all. Build relationships. God will
use man.Respect people. Get character. Get
wise.
