Paul Enenche

Dunamis Seeds Of Destiny 18 April 2022 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche: A Change In Character


TOPIC: A Change In Character (Seeds Of Destiny 18 April 2022)


SCRIPTURE: For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 8:29.


THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: A genuine Christian should experience a change in habit and lifestyle.


MESSAGE:


It has been confirmed that a change of habit or character is one proof of a changed life.


One area where we are expected to change and fit into the Nature of Christ is the area of habit and lifestyle. A genuine Christian should experience a change in habit and lifestyle.


Habit is the manner in which a person conducts himself. In other words, it is a person’s behavioural pattern. Lifestyle, on the other hand, is the manner of living or the way of life, characteristic of a particular person, group or culture.


There are many ways a Christian can behave that will show that his or her habits and lifestyle have not yet changed. For example, if an unbeliever comes late to work by 9:00am but writes 7:45am on the staff attendance register and a Christian does the same thing, it means that Christian has not yet experienced a change of habit or lifestyle. He is headed for the same destination with the sinner, and that is hellfire.


Unbelievers can easily engage in dubious practices – they can mix kerosene with petrol in order to make more money; they can mix cement with cheaper substances like dust and ash and re-bag them so they can make more profit, etc. If a child of God does the same thing they do, he will end in the same destination with them, and that destination is hellfire!


The truth is, whenever a person becomes a Christian, there should be a public testimony of a change of his lifestyle and such testimony should come from those who used to know him before he repented.


Remember this: A genuine Christian should experience a change in habit and lifestyle.


ASSIGNMENT:


  1. Align your character and conduct with that of Jesus Christ.
  2. Refuse to be controlled by the Flesh.

PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You change my conduct, character and lifestyle to reflect Your life. Help me to always put the flesh under control, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.


FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: The Essence of Christianity.
QUOTE: Let people’s character and identity be safe in your hands. See something good in people. Stop criticizing the imperfections of others. Culled from “WHO ARE YOU?” by Dr Paul Enenche.


DAILY BIBLE READING: Nehemiah 3-5


AMAZING FACT: Israel has more Nobel Prizes per capita than the United States, France and Germany. It also has more laureates, in real numbers, than India, Spain and China.
You can’t belong to God and be last on earth.
