PASTOR PAUL ENENCHE’S SEEDS OF DESTINY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE FOR 20TH MAY 2024.
Many years ago, while in the university, I usually came across a young man who was a chronic Indian hemp smoker. Every time he saw me coming, according to him, he would begin to quake and quiver. He later told me after his conversion, “I thought you were coming to destroy me.”
He quaked because there was something in me that was piercing. It is the potency of fire and godly character. So, one day, I caught him and he gave his life to Christ. I had never seen him smile until I led him to Christ.
I asked him to kneel down and confess Jesus Christ and he did. I led him to Christ by the fire of spirituality and the force of character.
Beloved, consciously imbibe Godly character. If your character is not Godly, nobody will accept to follow you to your church; no one will be interested in knowing your God.
For example, they see you do the same wrong things they do in the office. They come late to work and sign an earlier time in the attendance register, and they watch you coming late and doing the same thing. How would they follow you to church?
Beloved, Godly character is a potent witnessing tool.
In the Acts of the Apostles, unbelievers were the ones that first called the disciples Christians. They looked at the disciples’ character, and saw that they looked like Christ, so they called them “Christians” which means, “little Christs.” (Act 11:26).
Godly character increases the potency of Christian witnessing. When your character is godly, your witnessing is potent. When your character is correct, your preaching is short.
Beloved, my counsel is, live the life that will attract others to Christ.
REMEMBER THIS: Godly character increases the potency of Christian witnessing.
ASSIGNMENT:
1 Refuse to make your life a hindrance to the salvation of souls by ungodly character.
2 Live the life that attracts others to God and compels them to know and follow Him.
PRAYER: Lord, I receive the grace to uphold godly character. Let my life be a dragnet of souls into the Kingdom, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

QUOTE: O how seriously we would take the matter of souls – the vast multitude of human beings on their way to a hopeless eternity, if we are sure, that as we stand in Ministry, God watches. As the thought occurred to me, it became a little frightening. Culled from the book, “Making Full Proof of Ministry” by Dr Paul Enenche.
DAILY READING: Psalm 34-36
AMAZING FACT: The human hand, along with the wrist contains 54 bones.
PROPHETIC WORD (DECLARATION): Receive the grace to exist as a positive witness for Christ all your days, in Jesus’ Name.
