The Qualities Of God
God wants to make us into his character, but we have to be diligent about them.
Faith
Moral excellence
Knowledge
Self-control
Perseverance
Godliness
Brotherly kindness
Love
These are the qualities God wants to add to your life. But you also have to be diligent to keep growing in these character qualities.
It is a sweet dance. God leads, you follow. You aren’t just a rag doll being tossed around. You won’t get these by accident.
God’s power is at play. His power is available to you, but you also have to tap into it.
The internal fruit is what God is more concerned about. These are what makes you productive in his kingdom. And to forget these is to be near sighted and forgetful of God’s forgiveness and cleansing.
This is hard to read. I’ve become nearsighted. I lack self-control. Recently God’s put a deeper desire for his character to be growing inside me. I’m becoming more diligent to grow these qualities.
To have the biggest ministry we can and miss these qualities is to miss God.
