*CHARACTER MATTERS* HAPPY EASTER.
You cannot get by prayer what you should get by obedience and character.
Sometimes You Need CHARACTER, Not Prayer. No matter how we pray, the attitude has its place. This is the strong truth a lot of Christians fail to understand. Prayer is good, but prayer isn't the answer to everything.
Somewhere in the scriptures, the Bible says that before we pray, he will answer. You know why? Because we've exhibited attitudes that will attract miracles.
People, sometimes pray for miracles to happen, what you need is a character, not prayer, not speaking in tongues.
God is a spirit, and for him to bless you, he needs to pass through a man. If you lack good relationships with men, you'll hardly be blessed. God works with the relationship.
You must learn to treat people with courtesy. The Shunammite woman must have been praying for a child all through her life. I'm sure. She was a prominent woman and surely she had money but couldn't buy a child.
You know what made her have a child?
She took care of Elisha, a man of God.
She respected him, she was hospitable, she was kind, she had character!
Elisha spoke into her womb and in a year, she had a child.
Assuming she wasn't hospitable? Polite, and kind?
She would've still been praying and fasting, binding and casting demons that don't exist.
Sometimes, we are our demons, our own worst enemies. Our attitudes are our destiny killers.
Some people have insulted people that were divinely orchestrated to help you.
Some of you are keeping malice with your destiny helper.
Some of you are still suffering, not because you lack talent but because you lack character.
Talent is attractive.
Anyone can be talented, but the character is a proof of discipline. A proof of responsibility. Character sustains the attraction talent gives you.
The character is a virtue, and sometimes what we call FAVOUR is triggered by virtue.
Mary was a Virgin.
She had virtue!
Happy Easter Celebration.
Prophetess Elizabeth Ochoyada.
