WHOLESOMENESS OF CHARACTER

Ones again it is a great pleasure to write for you so that as you read you will learn and apply to your understanding what God is saying for the now.So today we will be looking at the wholesomeness of character and why it is very important in the life of a child of God to possess this traces in character that will lead him or her to represent God in the right sense of the word. so before we go further let us look at the word wholesomeness and what it means.wholesomeness means: good for one's health or well-being: such as a promoting mental or moral health or well-being. so now you have an idea of what it is, let's look at it from bibilical point of view or perpective. Hebrew 8 vs 10 This is the covenant I will establish with the people of Israel after that time, declares the Lord. I will put my laws in their minds and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. An wholesomeness of character starts with the spirit of God in you; the truth is there is nothing you can do, to help yourself without the spirit of God in you. The laws of God are to be obeyed and not only that it has to take charge of your heart when this happens, it spills out in you having an healthy character most christains of today can not have an wholesomeness character for one simple reason they enjoy the world. James 4 vs 4 Amplified Bible:You adulteresses [disloyal sinners—flirting with the world and breaking your vow to God]! Do you not know that being the world’s friend [that is, loving the things of the world] is being God’s enemy? So whoever chooses to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. What are the attributes of the world ?one of it, is an unwholesome character, doing things that God has clearly stated that people should not do, going against Gods will and purpose, to be friends with the world will mess up your stand with God and eventually you will become an enemy of God. Ephesians 4 vs29-30 (29). Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. (30) And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. When the heart is not right, the character of that person becomes unwholesome and ones this happens the way he talks too changes this not only hurt the people around you, it also grievs the Holy Spirit, you see, God wants us to show a very healthy character always in every aspect of our lives you can not seperate your every day character from the world, because character is one of the most hardest things to hide and an unhealty character will always expose you. Some great men and women who stood their ground and never changed their character despite the odds against them, a person with an wholesome character will not change when troubles come. Jospeh struggled at home and in Egypt but that never changed his character. Genesis 45 vs 7-8 "God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance. So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God." Ruth had tragedy and several misfortunes. As a widow and an outsider in her community, Ruth could have easily abandoned her mother-in-law Naomi and continued her life elsewhere. But Ruth's faithfulness to God and Naomi was more important. Her loyalty served as her foundation for navigating the challenges of daily life. "But Ruth replied, 'Don't urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go, I will go, and where you stay, I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God.'" Ruth was a woman who had an wholesome character troubles don't change a person who's heart has been given to God,and his laws is writing in the table of that heart, their character becomes wholesome and when this happens it pleases the heart of God, build your character and make it wholesome that's what God is looking for, that's the kind of people God wants to use. People who changes character as a result of one thing or the other from Good to Bad can not go far with God and they can't be used to effect a change in the set up of God as we are in the time of the end. Win souls with your wholesomeness of character and the heavens will rejoice over you. LET YOUR CHARACTER BUILD A LASTING IMPRESSION OF GOODNESS ON PEOPLEAND THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE PRAISED.
