“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.

“Good people are guided by their honesty; treacherous people are destroyed by their dishonesty.”
Proverbs 11:3 (NLT)

MAY 30 - While the shepherds’ hearts were flooded with great joy, the rest of Bethlehem slept, unaware that the true Savior of the world had come, wondrously called, “The Way, The Truth, and The Life.” How can we excel in any area of life without possessing the awesome virtue of honesty? We must be truthful with where we are, where we want to go, and with our Creator. When we walk in honesty, it causes us to progress in life like never before, and likewise prevents us from going backwards. As we cultivate honesty in our lives, excellence is a daily by-product. Many times, people are unwilling to be honest with where they are in life because they know the report would be dismal. Remember, we cannot disregard our actions of disobedience and then haughtily claim we are the righteousness of God. When we evaluate our present position, we discover the truth hidden in the preconceived actions of yesterday.

Examining ourselves causes us to come to grips with the truth. When we embrace the truth our actions declare of us, we begin to move in the direction God desires for us. We cannot change what we don’t know. We can only move forward as we are willing to change. God Himself placed leaders over us who see the weaknesses we possess. They understand if our weaknesses are not addressed, our progress comes to a halt. Our leaders prove their love by their willingness to tell us the truth at the cost of our disliking them. Truth hurts, but it liberates us if we learn to embrace it. Ask yourself, and ask those above you, exactly what you need to change. Your response determines the excellence in which you walk.

Daily Confession

Father, I thank You that I am guided and directed by honesty. I choose to be honest with You, myself, with those You place above me.ather, I thank You that my feet are firmly planted on the Rock, Jesus Christ.

“Then Paul said to him, ‘God will strike you, you whitewashed wall! For you sit to judge me according to the law, and do you command me to be struck contrary to the law?’ And those who stood by said, ‘Do you revile God’s high priest?’”
Acts 23:3-4 (NKJV)

MAY 16 - Authenticity…even the word itself has a genuine ring to it. And the very moment you decide to become a self-corrector is when your character is also deemed authentic. One of the chief reasons people compromise is because they have not made the resolute decision to confess when they yield to temptation or sin.

Just think for a moment how many things you would have heartily refused if you knew someone would eventually reveal what you did. Probably a number of things come to your mind. Certainly there are times when we think we can get away with what we do behind closed doors, but truthfully, everything ultimately comes to the light.

If you make the commitment to tell on yourself and be a self-corrector, you won’t have anything to worry about when Satan comes to callously tempt you. Satan cannot destroy a self-corrector. Why not make the choice today to tell on yourself whenever you feel yourself moving in the wrong direction or toying with wrong thoughts? Prove your character as authentic and remember that victory becomes real the moment you become a self-corrector.”

Daily Confession

Father, I thank You that I always choose to bow my knee to Your Word. I am a self-corrector therefore I prove my character to be authentic.

“You will know them by their fruits…”
Matthew 7:16 (NKJV)

APRIL 20 - Jesus tells us we shall know another by their fruits. I find it interesting how people judge another by what they do, but refuse to acknowledge their own actions. There are many who tell people, “God knows my heart,” yet they live in the depths of sin. Remember, God cannot be mocked. Although we can fool others, we cannot fool God. David prayed, “Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my anxieties; and see if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.”

Teachers of the ancient Hebrews did not hesitate to take action if their students misbehaved. Employing a strap of reeds, persistently inattentive or habitually absent children would be strictly chastised. These teachers’ actions were a blanket reflection of what they believed —discipline works! Likewise, our actions are a reflection of what lies hidden deep within our hearts…we cannot believe otherwise.

Remember, our actions are a documentation of what we believe; and every time we act, we declare to all of Heaven and earth who we truly are. If we ever seek change in our lives, we must begin to understand that our actions are the proof of who we are. May God help us to examine ourselves, revealing who we really are, going deep within.

Daily Confession

Lord, search me and know me, and rid me of any wicked desire lying within my heart. I am a doer of Your Word. I am known by my fruit and I choose to act upon Your Word. As I act, I bear the fruit of the Spirit in my life.

Sculpting Your True identity - CD

It took Michelangelo six years to carve one of his greatest works, the magnificent statue of King David. When asked why his masterpiece took so long, his reply was simple: “Once I found a slab of marble that I could see David in, all that was left was to chip away everything that was not David.”

You are God’s masterpiece. God placed something great within you that no man can take away, no circumstance can assail, and no words can destroy. The key to unveiling your true potential lies in learning how to chip away everything that is not a part of who God called you to be. Join Dr. Robb Thompson as he shows you how to become God’s masterpiece – whole, polished, and created anew in Christ Jesus!

“Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve,
and to give His life a ransom for many.”
Matthew 20:28 (NLT)

APRIL 10 - Over the years, I have seen far too many people exploit other people in the name of God. We must never misuse other people for our own self-seeking benefit. When two individuals enter a relationship
with the sole thought of giving, they both end up as receivers. What I personally plan to bring to any relationship is give/give, not give/take. When the other person enters the relationship sharing an equivalent
duty and responsibility to give/give, the benefits for both of us are as abundant as stars in the sky!

This reciprocity, this interdependence and complementary exchange, becomes impossible if you enter relationship with someone who regularly uses others.

Regretfully, our society is filled with depraved individuals who make it their exclusive aim to merely use their relationships to feed their own greed and perverted lusts. Israel’s prophets consistently warned the nation’s women of the excessive usage of cosmetics, recognizing the moral perils of exaggerated looks through imitation of their heathen counterparts. Manipulation of such immodest usage could have negatively flawed their character in a moment’s time. But your character is refined when you learn to use principle, and not people.

Daily Confession

Father, I thank You that as the Son of Man came to serve, I posture as a servant in all my relationships. I not only look out for my own interest but the interest of others as well.

“These trials are only to test your faith, to show that it is strong and pure. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—and your faith is far more precious to God than mere gold. So if your faith remains strong after being tried by fiery trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.”

1 Peter 1:7 (NLT)

APRIL 8 - After hearing of the massacres of two Central African missionaries, British-born gentleman, James Hannington fought the criticism and objection of his peers, forsaking a comfortable lifestyle in preparation to take their place. Before being martyred in 1885, Mr. Hannington first lifted his hand to his captors, requesting that the Ugandan king be told that he had purchased the road to their country with his death—a perilous path, yet one highly worthwhile. I admit, in this world, you could suffer for choosing Godly character. The Scriptures warn us that this might happen as we follow Christ. One thing is very sure,  however; when this life is over and we step into eternity, all injustice will cease. Whatever price you pay to have Godly character (even if with your life) will pale in comparison to the rewards that await you. You will have difficulty here on earth, but if you choose God’s righteousness, you’ll never regret the adversity it may include.

Have you yet realized that God is very interested in rewarding you? Yes, He is gracious and loving beyond comprehension, but we must step up to the plate of service in order to receive what is ours. God’s goodness
can only be released through our commitment to walk in His ways, as He expertly uses our times of dversity to refine us—making us even stronger than we are already are. We may never suffer martyrdom as did
James Hannington, but we do have a mandate to help people in any way that God directs. And the only way we’ll accomplish our task and be rewarded for it is if we choose the prize of character, despite the price
of adversity.

Father, I thank You for Your grace that enables me to represent You. Help me to always do what is just in Your sight.

Spiritual Checkup Pack - CD & Book

What is the ultimate prize that this world has to offer? The Nobel Peace Prize? An Oscar? A Super Bowl ring? A lucrative recording contract?

Certainly you can find all types of contests in which to compete and a host of valuable prizes to covet in today’s society. Are you equipped to win the prize and obtain the goal? In this package, Dr. Robb Thompson explains to you how to win the ultimate prize of life – the heart of your Heavenly Father.

Using illustrations from the lives of Biblical men and women, Dr. Thompson vividly portrays what it means to be a person after God’s own heart and how to do the necessary examining of your own heart in the process. He tackles the all-important topics of submission and covenant loyalty – scriptural concepts that are frequently shunned and swept under the collective rug in Christendom today.

As Dr. Thompson so succinctly asks, “What else do you have in life, if you don’t have the heart of the Father?” That’s a question only you can answer for yourself. Pursue the prize of your Father’s heart, and watch everything else in your life fall into place (Matthew 6:33).

“Happy are people of integrity, who follow the law of the Lord.”
Psalm 119:1 (NLT)

APRIL 3 - As believers, our purpose in life is to seek and satisfy our Lord and Savior. Our lives must hinge on that one pursuit – to please God. Within our purpose, God places upon each individual an assignment
that He calls us to fulfill. Yet far too many believers zealously seek to fulfill their assignment while leaving behind a trail of wounded people and broken hearts.

Due to the vast amount of time, labor, and patience it took for the cultivation of the olive, the integrity of the Israelite soldier (even in something as seemingly replaceable as a tree) was indeed very crucial to the nation, as well as to God. Because of their love for country and God, even in time of war, soldiers were trusted not to damage an olive grove. The deliberate destruction of one individual tree was strictly forbidden.

We, too, are called to walk in love and live with integrity. God is not pleased with the man who did what was instructed but lacked integrity. God does not separate our character from our purpose. We cannot cheerfully fulfill one while harshly neglecting the other. Always be diligent and serious about living a life of integrity, a life in which you keep your word and do what you know to be right. The moment our integrity lines up with our purpose, no devil can stop us from changing lives.

The abundant life full of joy and satisfaction only belongs to those who choose to apply integrity with their purposed life. Today we must make the choice to do the same.

Father, I thank You that I am a person of integrity, therefore I am happy. I live by Your Word and I build my life upon the sure foundation of Your character.

“He grants a treasure of good sense to the Godly.
He is their shield, protecting those who walk with integrity.”
Proverbs 2:7 (NLT)

MARCH 23 - No matter what problem or challenge we may face in our lives, we must, at all costs, conduct ourselves as people of integrity. Our integrity unmistakably defines who we are. We must fervently keep our word and conduct ourselves with a resolute adherence to God’s standards in order to represent Christ  effectively. By doing so, we are kept securely beneath the covenant promise of God’s protection. He is unable to protect us when we step out of the perimeter of His principles, which are clearly defined in Scripture.

Solomon speaks of this when he declares, “He is their shield, protecting those who walk in integrity.” We are to be absolutely committed to keep, not only the Word of God, but our word as well.

We can never afford to allow our integrity to be questioned. We must live above the expectations and standards set by others, over performing in all of our assignments. Remember, Satan comes to steal,
kill, and destroy; he prowls around like a lion, seeking whom he may devour.

Only our integrity delivers us from the brutal attacks of the enemy. But we must choose integrity, knowing that our future success depends upon it.

Father, I thank You for granting a treasure of good sense to me because I walk in Your ways. You are my shield protecting me in all of my dealings, for I walk with integrity.

“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?

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.
