Tag: God chastens those whom He loves

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-7-15

Proverbs 3:11-12 (NKJV) 11 My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord, nor detest His correction; 12 For whom the Lord loves He corrects, just as a father the son in whom he delights.

Sometimes we get acting up a little and need an attitude adjustment.

We all have days or times when we’re just not thinking right and we need to be shown by the Holy Spirit where we’re going wrong.

It’s not that God is mad at us or wants to hurt us. But because He loves us, He also corrects us from time to time. It’s good for us!

It’s not always pleasant when it happens, but if we heed His correction and follow His leading, we will be so much better off in the long run.

Just as we need to chasten and scold our own kids once in a while, so does God need to watch over us and chasten us when we need it.

So if we have an attitude problem, let’s listen to God’s promptings and follow His leading and get it fixed up.

It may hurt a little in the short run, but in the long run we will be a much stronger believer and live a life of victory in Jesus 🙂
