GENUINE CHARISMA AND CHARACTER: MADE POSSIBLE BY THE HOLY SPIRIT IN REDEMPTION!
Being CHARISMATIC is a gracious tool in life and godliness for any, especially for the born-again believer of God in Christ Jesus. But one’s CHARACTER is the only sustainability in life and godliness to continuously enjoy MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION as such.
It then means CHARISMA is of no PURPOSE, if one is found wanting in CHARACTER. It makes the whole PURPOSE of being MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION caricatured and laughable. For CHARACTER speaks of ATTITUDE, BEHAVIOUR, INTEGRITY and HONESTY, JUSTICE, TRUSTWORTHY and TRUTH and such like in the Holy Spirit.
In life, most people are most likely to be carried away by CHARISMA, which unfortunately is not sustainable in cause of time without character. Hence this WISDOM NUGGETS is needful for guidance as I hereby state:
“The CHARISMA – capacity, talents and the good of riches, friends, certificates, politics, enterprise and more, may TAKE you to the TOP, but only INTEGRITY, ATTITUDE, BEHAVIOUR and such like, the essence of CHARACTER, will sustain you there with honor and dignity”.
However, to operate graciously and gracefully in life and godliness – CHARISMA and CHARACTER – are ESSENTIALS to doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY, in order to ensure a MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION; and the NEED to continuously walk in and by the HOLY SPIRIT is imperative, to APPROPRIATE and ENACT these virtues of CHARISMA and CHARACTER on daily basis.
The knowing and understanding of these essential virtues indicate these scriptural contexts:
*** CHARISMA (capacity, productivity, and talents) is an act of the GIFTS by the Holy Spirit, written in 1 Corinthians 12:9-12; 1 John 2:20, 27.
*** CHARACTER (attitude, behavior, integrity, honesty, and truth) is an act of the FRUIT of the Holy Spirit as written in Galatians 5:22-23; Matthew 7:15-20; John 15:1-16.
The Holy Spirit is the personality that ENABLE God’s GRACE to activate a genuine CHARISMA and CHARACTER. Therefore, to ensure a genuine CHARISMA and CHARACTER in life and godliness, you need to be BUILT UP by the Holy Spirit by the WORD of God as in the Holy Writ.
Thriving in God’s BLESSEDNESS through balancing the essence of CHARISMA And CHARACTER makes doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus a complete Gospel.
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
