Daniel was a man of character and David,a man of secret character before he was announced.Daniel's virtue brought him to a place where he was able to serve kings and offer solutions.When you are a man of good character,what people think and say will not bother you any more. You just do something because it is the right thing to do. Character is who you are when no one is watching.Character is what you do and how you respond to the challenges of life,especially in an unpleasant event.Character is developed in your closet through pain and revealed in the open.If you cheat on yourself during the training process,it will show when the pressure comes on you in the open.There are three key sources of pressure.1 Pressure from from people who like you,admire you,and have certain expectations of you..Pressure from money.3.Moral pressure as a result of the desire for sexual pleasure.Daniel PURPOSED in his heart that he would not defile himself.(Dan 1:8).David was busy killing the near and lion before he killed Goliath.If his secret lifestyle was fear and weakness,he would have been disgraced at the valley of Ella where he killed Goliath.So it is your character that will escort you to your throne of destiny.In the long run,what you are in the secret will determine who you become in the public.Yes anybody can win through Charisma but to keep winning takes character.Character development begins by doing what is right through the Word of God,the source of all knowledge.
