Hebrews 12:11 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.
Wrong decisions results consequences. It’s painful and difficult to comprehend. And we blame God. While we were in the pleasure of doing what we want (knowing the fact that we are sinning), we forget Him. And when difficult time comes. We only remember God in two ways: 1-We blame God. We asked too many questions. Why me? (And well, why not?) 2-We seek God only for help. God doesn’t deserve those kinds of attention we are giving Him. He is more than that. He deserves to be praise. To give glory, honor and power in His name whether we are in high or low of our lives. This is the thing, God applies discipline to His Children that He loves. He allows situations seemingly impossible to end. But God is the most loving God ever, whenever you run back to Him, HE will not only forgive you but definitely He will open doors for you to solve whatever problems you are facing of. He doesn’t enjoy seeing His children suffers, but He needs to discipline His people so that they would learn. Discipline is not a revenge neither anguish of God, discipline is the way to reveal that HE is so serious to correct your life. It same applies to our earthly parents. Our Parents discipline us because they wanted us to learn from the mistakes we’ve done not to do it again. And if we fail, again, we face same pain and hurts over and over and over again. Do not run away to God’s discipline, face it with humility and courageous heart. Seek God’s wisdom. And once you’ve totally learned from it, you will harvest the rewards on its due time. God’s timing is always perfect. Trust Him.
Discipline helps you to grow in all areas of your life:
Mentally- The Holy Spirit will give you sound mind, you may easily understand things. Just live in forward and you will understand backwards. Your decision making will be different. You won’t be emotional base, you will be a Bible base instead. This how awesome our living God is, He created the brain on top, higher on your heart because He knows how deceitful our emotion is. You will learn how to see things with perspective. You will weigh things and most importantly, God’s word will be in command.
Physically- You will learn eventually to give favor in your physical body/health. You will notice that you are pushing yourself to do physically activities and start treating yourself right by removing and avoiding poisonous stuffs to intake.
Emotionally- You will understand how the Holy Spirit will control your emotions. The patience and understand will be extended more than what you have before. You will be more considerate and less judgmental. You will feel compassionate love to the person who done wrong things against you and hate the Sin that person is doing.
Spiritually- You will be literally DEPENDENT to God. You will trust Him, believe in Him and your Faith is growing as day goes by. In every action, you want to make it sure God’s approval. You are praying and aiming to give glory to His name. God’s plan is always the best and if we only just surrender to Him without questions being asks, just literally giving it away to the Lord, He will do the necessary and will give the Victory for the Glory of His Name alone. This way, no one can boast and be proud.
