Romans 5:4 NKJV

and perseverance, character; and character, hope.

Romans 5:4 NKJV

Character is so important in life. A good character has the ability to hold a person in hope that will not disappoint them.

A bad character cannot hold a person in hope because they are unstable in their lives.

When we go through battles in life, our character plays an important part for us to be steady in our beliefs and not be moved away from the truth.

Characters are developed and we are not born into bad or good character. Perseverance, trials and tribulations produce different qualities in a person.

Biblical character is developed by following the principle of God and His word. Every character is developed by what we expose ourselves to.

If we expose ourselves to watching, listening and associating ourselves with Godly things then we can be assured our character will be filled with Godly principles.

It is important that we develop our character with the word of God. This is so that when we are tested with the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, we can stand strong and firm in Christ.

The character also builds confidence and assurance in others to trust us. As an ambassador of Christ, we need to shine the character of Christ to the world so that the many lost souls are confident to invite Jesus into their lives.

Let us continue to grow in our character, building ourselves up in His promises and in His Spirit.

Blessings
