SELF DISCIPLINE
By
self discipline, I mean being able to control the way you behave or respond to
a given situation and make yourself dot things that you believe you should do
without being compelled. It is the capital price that must be paid to
obtain the price (greatness) it is doing what is demanded and not what is convenient,
it is the key to success, the gateway to distinction, the guarantee for dignity
and the key to relevance. When you are not disciplined, you can as well forget
about success. As a student, you should be able to go extra mils by studying
hard while others are fast asleep. As a worker or a business man, you should be
diligent, dedicated and be punctual at the place of your work and be ready to
put in extra time and efforts, if necessary. As a minister of the gospel, you
must discipline yourself not o live to the way others do. You must be
disciplined enough to put in extra effort in fasting, prayer and in studying of
the word. You must go at least a step higher than the laities. Remember
success in life and ministry do not come by chance, neither is it meant for the
wreck less; otherwise Samson, Esau and Judas Iscariot won’t have missed
it. Put on the virtue of self discipline.
Divine Opening “ Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut; ” - - - Isaiah 45:1 Hallelujah! God has graciously brought us to the second month of this year. As the Lord themed this year as our year of Divine Beautification so also is this month themed as our month of Divine Openings. You may be thinking how will come bring to past His promises but remember that God can do anything at any time He wishes to. He can use anyone to bring to pass this Divine Opening. From the passage, He used Cyrus to subdue nations and Jehovah using any person to do His will is not an issue. I pray that in any area of your life that you are experiencing difficult and closed doors, Jehovah will cause the doors to be open unto you. No more will you experience difficulty and shortages. The doors of your supply are open...
