TOPIC: GODLY CHARACTER
– “[Now] the queen, by reason of the words of the king and his lords, came into the banquet house: [and] the queen spake and said, O king, live for ever: let not thy thoughts trouble thee, nor let thy countenance be changed: There is a man in thy kingdom, in whom [is] the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him; whom the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, [I say], thy father, made master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, [and] soothsayers;
Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation. Then was Daniel brought in before the king.
[And] the king spake and said unto Daniel, [Art] thou that Daniel, which [art] of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Jewry? I have even heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods [is] in thee, and [that] light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee. And now the wise [men], the astrologers, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me the interpretation thereof: but they could not shew the interpretation of the thing:” (Daniel 5:10-15)
There are levels of wisdom e.g excellent wisdom. The function of the spirit of excellence is Character or virtue. As you read through God’s word, the spirit of excellence shall be imparted to your life in the name of Jesus. What distinguishes you from other people in career pursuit, lifestyle, and interpersonal relationships is character.
Importance of Godly Character
- It enhances restoration and establishment in life and pursuits
“At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine honour and brightness returned unto me; and my counselors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me” (Daniel 4:36).
- It enhances knowledge and understanding.
“Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation”( Daniel 5:12)
- An excellent spirit enhances interpretation and definition of complicated issues, offers solutions to mysterious problems, and answers to uncommon questions.
“Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation” (Daniel 5:12)
- An excellent spirit produces insight, intelligence, and outstanding wisdom. If there’s anything you should cry for is sound insight, intelligence, and outstanding wisdom. As a child of God, you have an added advantage because you are endowed with godly attributes. You are only required to activate them through constant study of the Word.
“I have even heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods [is] in thee, and [that] light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee”(Daniel 5:14).
“He that had knowledge spareth his words” Stop wasting your words. Hear this child of God, most of the time we shout deliverance, the truth is that nothing might be really wrong with our spirit but our mentality.
So it does not matter how many times you talk to a person with the wrong mentality; his actions are determined by his wrong mentality. “For as a man thinketh in his heart so is he”. The devil will fight you based on what you believe but he will not conquer.
MEDITATION: The word of God is life; it gives me righteous boldness as I believe in it.
PRAYER:
- Oh Lord change my mentality and let excellence manifest in me in Jesus name.
- Father, deliver me from every spirit that has marked me a dead person even when am still alive.
