DON'T FORGET CHARACTER
Matthew 7:20
Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
As we work and fulfil our purpose, we must not get carried away and forget the character we possess, our nature by the Spirit. "Who birth us into the nature of His Spirit".
Our service must be with good character, unless we do not want the reward.
Romans 12:6-8(NLT)
In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out with as much faith as God has given you.
If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, teach well.
If your gift is to encourage others, be encouraging. If it is giving, give generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly.
It is the flesh that resisted us from serving with the character of the Spirit. We can never get enough reminder of our nature:
Ephesians 5:9-10
(For the fruit of the Spirit [is] in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
Galatians 5:22
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
We would not be found wanting. Our service will be fruitful.
We are blessed.
