Topic: Godly Character – A Remedy For Calamity [Tuesday December 5, 2017]
Scripture: He shall deliver the island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands. Job 22:30
Thought For The Day: Iniquity is the foundation for calamity; corruption facilitates destruction.
A Godly character is akin to having and maintaining a buoyant conscience devoid of offence towards God and towards man.
Our anchor scripture reveals that Godly character facilitates the deliverance of people from destruction. Pureness of heart and hands is a remedy for infirmity and calamity.
The fact is, truth fuels liberty, innocence facilitates the preservation of the innocent. You may wonder why snakes come around little babies without hurting them even while the babies play with them; it is because snakes know that human babies are innocent and harmless.
You are not in the path of harm if you are not in the path of wrong. That was why for as long as Daniel was innocent, he was not eatable by the lions. (Daniel 6:20-22). Gehazi, Samson and Judas Iscariot on the other hand could not escape generational calamity because of their iniquitous lifestyle.
Beloved, iniquity is the foundation for calamity; corruption facilitates destruction. Compromise sponsors susceptibility to danger. An armed robber can die anytime, a smoker and an alcoholic are prone to all kinds of lung and liver diseases. Prostitutes and immoral people have no future – HIV/AIDS, Gonorrhea, Syphilis, Bacterial Vaginosis etc. are their inheritances. The husband snatcher, the backbiter, the cheater, etc. are vulnerable to the calamity of the devil.
I prophesy to you: receive the grace to uphold a Godly character. I decree your escape from every trap set for you by the enemy in this season, in Jesus’ Name.
Remember This: Iniquity is the foundation for calamity; corruption facilitates destruction.
Assignment(S):
- Shun the lifestyle of iniquity or corruption
-
Always maintain a conscience that is alive; a conscience devoid of offence both towards God and man
Prayer: Lord, deliver me from a Godless lifestyle, and help me to maintain a conscience that is alive, O Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
