TOPIC: THE POWER OF GODLY CHARACTER
SCRIPTURE: The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion. PROVERBS 28:1.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: When you live with integrity, purity, and uprightness, you position yourself in God’s favour and Divine protection.
Our anchor scripture unveils an inextricable connection between righteousness and boldness. To be righteous is to be bold. Have you ever wondered how some people seem to live with uncommon boldness and confidence, unaffected by the pressures, threats, or forces around them? While others panic, retreat, or collapse under pressure, these individuals remain calm, steady, and fearless. One of the greatest secrets behind such a life is godly character.
When you live with integrity, purity, and uprightness, you position yourself in God’s favour and Divine protection. Godly character gives the believer spiritual authority and inner confidence. It produces a quiet boldness that comes from knowing you are standing right with God. It is confidence, not arrogance; it is assurance rooted in righteousness.
Godly character is not merely about having good morals or being kind to people; it is deeper than outward behaviour. It is about having the courage to stand for what is right, even when it is unpopular or costly. It is about choosing truth over convenience, righteousness over compromise, and obedience over personal gain.
Those who live with godly character do not shrink back in the face of evil or injustice. They do not negotiate with sin or make excuses for wrongdoing. Instead, they stand firm, fully persuaded that God is with them.
Jesus Christ is our perfect and ultimate example of the power of godly character. In John 14:30, He boldly declared: ‘Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.’
This statement is loaded with spiritual authority. Jesus was in essence, saying that Satan, the prince of this world, had no legal hold on Him. There was no sin, no compromise, no corruption, nothing that the enemy could use against Him. Jesus lived a spotless life, and that purity gave Him unmatched boldness.
This reveals a powerful truth: when there is nothing in you that belongs to the enemy, the enemy has no power over you. Godly character shuts the door against Satan’s accusations. It deprives darkness of access. It strengthens your spiritual defense.
That is the power of godly character—it shields you, strengthens you, and secures you. When your life aligns with God’s standards, you stand fearless before both men and spiritual forces.
Now, why is godly character this powerful?
Godly character positions you in God’s presence. Godly character will bring you into God’s presence, and it is in His Presence that you are kept safe and secure. God’s Presence is the greatest place of protection. No enemy can successfully attack a life that is hidden in God’s presence. No evil can penetrate where God dwells. Psalms 24:3-4 says, Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart….
Clean hands speak of righteous actions. A pure heart speaks of right motives. So, God is not only concerned about what we do, but also about why we do it.
Beloved, choose to walk with God even when it is inconvenient or costly.
Remember this: When you live with integrity, purity, and uprightness, you position yourself in God’s favour and Divine protection.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Decide to live continually in God’s presence.
2. Be committed to maintaining integrity, truthfulness and purity in all areas of your life.
PRAYER: Father, I ask for the grace to live a life that is pleasing to You, so I can continually dwell in Your Presence and experience safety and preservation, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
