Called to dignity and moral excellence

“According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:”                      
2 Peter 1:3(KJV)


The glory in our opening scripture refers to 'dignity' and the word virtue refers to 'moral excellence.' That means that God has called each of us to a life of dignity and moral excellence. In other words people should look at your life and find no flaws because you have been given the ability to live a flawless life.

The ability to live a life that is scandal free has already been given to you as a child of God. You have the ability to live such a life that when people look at your life, there is no money anywhere that you have stolen neither is there any woman anywhere that you are hiding, your life is completely free from all scandal. The Bible says that you have been given such an ability. Believe it and walk in it.

Please make this confession if you truly believe; say, “my life is scandal free.” I want you to mean this confession you just made and live your life accordingly because you have the ability. You have been given all things that pertain to life and godliness and you have been called to dignity and moral excellence.

Make no excuse for sin because you have been given everything you need to live a life of dignity and moral excellence. So if you are living in sin, you are living beneath your potential, if you are living in sickness or fear, you are living beneath your potential because as He is so are we in this world (I John 4:17).

CONFESSION
In the Name of Jesus I declare that as He is so am I in this world. I have the ability to live a life of dignity and moral excellence. I renounce every form of compromise even as I manifest the character of Christ in me to live above sin, sickness, fear and every oppression of the devil. Amen.

2 Peter 1:5-10

DOING THE WORD
… fill your minds with those things that are good and that deserve praise: things that are true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and honorable. (Philippians 4:8)
