SCRIPTURE: And she made haste, and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and said, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: so I drank, and she made the camels drink also. Genesis 24:46
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Your character determines your opportunities and favours in life.
It has been established that the strength of your character determines the quality of your destiny.
For example, Reuben, the first son of Jacob, could not become anything in life because of his bankruptcy of character. Similarly, Esau lost out in life because of the deficiency of Godly character.
Now, one power of godly character is that Godly character determines opportunity and favour in life.
Your character determines your opportunities and favour. For example, Rebecca was favoured to be located to marry Isaac, the child of the covenant, by the instrumentality of her Godly character.
Genesis 24:43-46 gives us the account of how Abraham’s servant got a wife for Isaac. He stood by the well and prayed to God that any maiden who would agree to give water, not only to him but also to his camels, that maiden would be the wife of Isaac. Rebecca was the answer to his prayer because Rebecca willingly gave water to both him and his camels to drink.
You see, your character truly determines your opportunities and favours in life. The character of kindness gave Rebecca the opportunity to marry Isaac. Rebecca may have prayed to God to give her a good husband, but it was her character of kindness that brought to her the answer to her prayer.
Your Godly character gives God the basis to answer your prayer. Your Godly character grants you access to answered prayers. Rebecca would have missed the opportunity of marrying Isaac if she did not display Godly character. She attracted the opportunity and favour to her life by her display of Godly character.
In our world today, many people pray for opportunities and favours, but they don’t know that what they pray for is wrapped up in Godly character.
Beloved, always maintain Godly character to have speedy answers to your prayers.
Remember this: Your character determines your opportunities and favours in life.
