Conduct: the Offspring of Character 1 Peter 5:8, " Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion for someone to devour. " " It is true that prayer governs conduct, and conduct shapes character. Conduct is what we do. Character is what we are. Conduct is the outward life. Character is the unseen life, hidden within, yet is evidenced by what is seen. Conduct is external, seen from without. Character is internal, operating within. In the economy of grace, conduct is the offspring of character. Character is the state of the heart and conduct is its outward expression. Prayer is related to all the gifts of grace. Prayer helps to establish character and to shape conduct. And both depend on prayer for their successful continuance. " " Father, I know that the successful continuance of how I act and who I am depend on prayer. Please guide me in Your truth today. Amen. "
