God calls discipline a word of encouragement! Discipline comes - TopicsExpress



          

God calls discipline a word of encouragement! Discipline comes from his LOVE! He is working for GOOD in our lives when he chastens us! Listen to Hebrews 12:5-12: And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement that addresses you as a father addresses his son? It says, My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline, and do not lose heart when he rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son. If you are not disciplined - and everyone undergoes discipline - then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all. God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.
