The Bible tells us many things about discipline that we absolutely must apply to our personal lives. When we live a disciplined life we restrain ourselves from doing bad things and are able to obey God’s commandments.
God told us not to despise his words because when we disobey God’s word the wrath of God comes upon our lives. On the other hand, the Bible tells us that he who loves discipline loves knowledge but he who hates correction is a fool.
May we prioritize discipline in our personal lives that help us stay on God’s path. When we live discipline life, we can give up our bad habits which is what God wants. As Christians, we must live a harmonious life that helps us connect with God.
