A Man’s Character Is The Prophecy Of His Destiny

“He who walks with integrity walks securely, But he who perverts his ways will become known.”
Proverbs 10:9 (NKJV)

NOVEMBER 21 - If you want to know the outcome of your life, closely examine your character. You cannot separate yourself from your character. Character is who a person is. The good thing is, character can be  developed. You are not born a good person; in fact, you are programmed to fail the moment you are born. The Bible says we are all born slaves to sin. But God sent His Son to die and rise again so we can walk as He  walked. Jesus’ destiny was predicted long ago by His unwillingness to compromise. When tempted in the wilderness, He refused to negotiate His integrity for momentary pleasure. When tempted to forsake suffering and death on the cross, He walked in the veracity of His Father.

Your character is a prophecy of your destiny. It is up to you. You can, through God’s Word, cultivate the character of Christ. Heaven and Hell are destinies of a chosen path. Walk according to God’s Word, and Heaven is your final destination. Choose to live according to the desires of your flesh, and Hell awaits you. Today, cross-examine yourself with God’s Word. Ask God to help you live like Christ and pay whatever price you must to ensure you never lower your standard of living.

Father, I thank You that my character is a prophecy of my destiny, therefore I choose to live a life of integrity and honesty before You.

Your Heart Is Where You Construct The Pillars Of Your Life

“For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. ‘Eat and drink!’ he says to you, but his heart is not with you.”
Proverbs 23:7 (NKJV)

JULY 8 - Alter your thoughts, and you will be amazed at the rapid transformation of your life. Solomon understood this principle, stating, “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.”

  • Any thought dwelt upon soon becomes a belief system.
  • A belief system expresses itself in habit.
  • Those habits determine our circumstances.

Although we cannot directly choose our circumstances, we can choose our thoughts, and so indirectly determine our circumstances. Any pattern of thought, whether good or bad, cannot fail to produce results in the character of an individual. The enemy understands if he gains control of our mind, he easily determines our destiny. The outcome of every life starts with a thought. Criminal or Olympian—both begin as thought. We can use this principle to create a great future.

Success is not a matter of environment. If it were, all the people in certain neighborhoods would instantly succeed, and all those in other neighborhoods would immediately fail. It is true that some environments may be more favorable than others. Nevertheless, when two people in the same environment have different outcomes, it indicates that success is the result of the way one chooses to think. What kind of future do we desire? We cannot allow ourselves to believe or expect a future contrary to what we think. As we think, so we are. Choose your thoughts wisely, for by them you become a living expression of Heaven, or you fade away into the sea of insignificance.

Daily Confession

Father, I thank You for giving me the necessary tools to create a successful future. I understand that my mind is the workshop of my life, so I choose to think only what is written in Your Word.

Integrity Is The Foundation Upon Which Your Life’s Work Is Built

“He who walks with integrity walks securely,
but he who perverts his ways will become known.”

Proverbs 10:9 (NKJV)

MARCH 21 - A number of years ago, my father, Peter Daniels, and I traveled to California to meet with Dr. Robert Schuller. Dr. Schuller proceeded to tell us how the “Golden State” was experiencing an influx of new
homebuyers. He also mentioned that when most of the people buy homes, they place great emphasis on the state’s beautiful scenery and gorgeous weather, forgetting to think about the ground upon which the house rests. (If you are not aware, most of California sits on the dreaded San Andreas Fault.)

These people failed to realize how important the foundation is to the very future of the home they so greatly desired. In the same way, character is the only sure foundation to any successful business, healthy marriage, or fulfilling life.

It is your daily decisions, constructive thoughts, and encouraging associations that firmly shape your character. Neglect a stable foundation, and whatever you build in life will soon come tumbling down as if destroyed by an earthquake. Don’t set yourself up for disappointment. Why not stand upon God’s Word in all that you do?

Daily Confession

Father, I thank You that I walk in integrity therefore I walk securely. I refuse to pervert my way, for he who perverts his way becomes known.
