For the time being no discipline brings joy, but seems sad and painful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness [right standing with God and a lifestyle and attitude that seeks conformity to God’s will and purpose].
HEBREWS 12:11 AMP
Praise and Glory be unto God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.
Thank you Lord Jesus for victory on the cross, you endured it so that we can enjoy eternal life. The process of going through discipline is a tough one and not pleasant to anyone.
It is very easy or natural to react negatively towards discipline when it is being meted out. The rewards are however great. May we be humble to go through discipline where required.
Enduring discipline brings us a lifestyle and attitude that conforms to God’s will and purposes.
May we reap the fruits of Righteousness that comes from subjecting ourselves to the discipline of God’s Word. May our lifestyles conform to the Word of God, may the discipline of God’s Word make us more productive and a better people to impact our world. Amen.
