Prudence
Practical wisdom, that helps you make wise decision. Any time, you make less mistakes. Success can be defined in other way as the ability to minimize your errors.

2. Courage
Courage is the ability and the will to do what is right or necessary even when you are faced adversity. It is the will and ability to stand up for what is right in spite of opposition. The contrary wind drives your roots deeper. What do we need today? Men and women of courage to preach the gospel. Not what is right in the eyes of men but in the eyes of God, doing what the Spirit of God says, what the Word of God says. Its affirming your faith in Christ no matter who your adversaries are. Because thats what Jesus did, thats what the prophets of the Old did, thats what the apostles did.They stood for what is right in spite of opposition. They werent afraid of the kings and werent afraid to die. The terrorrists that we are talking about today that are terrorising the civilized world know what it is to have the sentence of death upon their life. That kind of courage to give life, to strengthen others, to bring light to others, to lift others is what the prophets of the Old had: Thats what Moses had, thats what Samuel

had, and thats what Elijah had, thats what Jesus had and thats what the apostles had. Thats the Spirit that makes you do anything for the Gospel of Jesus Christ, thats the only reason you can give anything for Christ. Because you call you nothing but possessor of all things. The power is not in shout nor in anything else but in the Spirit. If youe knees will bend in prayer you would see the glory of God. Yes you can make a fire. Let me tell you about that kind of prayer: When the fire starts, there is urgency, your words become fast, your spirit becomes quick, the fire devours. Your tongue moves fast that you can naturally control. You may find yourself speaking in tongues so fast; words are poured out like water. You woukld find yourself roaring. Your life should be a fire braze. There are things you hear and you just tell yourself you are going to make a fire. Listen there is nothing that you cannot change, absolutely nothing, if you make up your mind. It will only take a decision to do it.

3. Temperance or self-control
It is the ability and the will to control your impulses to delay immediate gratification for a long term game. Temperance is the ability to saynot now! To stay awake until you get the job done. Fasting is stay awake while you are hungry.Learning to control your senses, your flesh.

You are feeling to sleep and you say to your bodynot now! If your body cannot be subject to you, you are still the slave. But thats beeing in the army of Christ is all about, the thoughness. You will have to train your body, to break it like a horse. Not it telling you what to do. You are going to learn to stay awake when you should be sleeping, you are going to learn to stay without food when you shoul be eating. You have to subdue your body. There are those who watch football until 3 am and the next day the game is replayed on the screen you watch it againevery move moves you.
