Discipline is not for selfish interest or to avoid punishment but discipline is to be Godly, it makes way for a good present life and a better future, there is need for this now, this is @PASTOR001 ones again with a pure gospel of God who's servant I am listen and be safe and bless in Jesus name.
This aticle is for a total charge of mind towards the reality of the word of God I want us to look at some ways we can descipline our self and become more like him who have called us in perfect love.
HOW TO DESCIPLINE YOURSELF FOR GODLINESS.
Focus everything about your life on Jesus (Heb 12:2) says looking unto Jesus the author and the finisher of our faith who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross despising the shame and has sat down at the right hand of the thrown of God.
Associate with other desciplined Godly people who can teach you by their example of good life in Christ.
Do not allow people's criticism, personal faillures and problems to affect your emotions, (Lk 12:47) the Bible says to him much is given much is also expected
God uses diversity, so don't think you have to follow someone else, for the way he uses others is not the way he will use you, therefore follow the way he is leading you so you can get to your destination (Philippians 2:13).
Do not allow setback deter you from accomplishing God's will, God needs our faith and obedience as your best choice (Eph 1:17-18).
Program your thinking to love, serve and maximize your contribution to the priorities of the Christian Life yes (1Cor 9:27). Paul said I descipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest when I have preach to others I myself should become disqualified.
Be content with what the Lord gives you and Bloom where where you are planted, whatever God has given you that is what he will bless you with.
Note that your life and circumstances will never be bad or good as you like. That is nature for you, the way you are thinking it will it might not be so at that time, things can change but just relax and trust God.(Room 8:28-29).
Be teachable through all the experiences, relationships and life endeavors (Ephesians 4:15). That is if you pass through a situation and is not easy, then when getting to such a situation again you know how to avoid it clearly. Or that you tried some things today and didn't get it does not mean you should not try again only Len from that faillure.
Do not be overpowered by temptation and distractions, you know the day say you will descipline yourself maybe by fasting and praying, that is the day you will wake up with hungry don't let that distract you not over power you.
Deny nature somethings, nature is to pursue self and self protection be willing to go outside your comfort zone for once, be able to subdue the flesh and it's lost.
Discipline your mind, you must set your mind on things above and be willing to labour for the popose of Godliness, there is no way you will not labour for what you want.
Creat a new habit, we need to train ourselves on new habits, discipline changes who you are to a new person, and at every point in time we must change for good (Room 14:20-21). Self discipline stenghthens believers when they are faced with temptation and the reward for self discipline is a crown and a price, May the Almighty God bless his word in our life in Jesus name, this is @PASTOR001 one s again sharering the reality of life, don't forget to.
Thank you for reading and doing just that you are bless already.
