Title: The Cure Comes Through Discipline

Scriptures: Proverbs 22:15

God’s Message/Promise/Commands:

Amazing day with Jesus!  Proverbs 22:15 is our word for today.  It says, "Young people are prone to foolishness and fads; the cure comes through tough-minded discipline." Wow!  What a strong and powerful wise words from our God today.  It is true, when we are young, we are so easily swayed and influenced by things, including what is "in" or trending today.  Even to this day, some of us still get caught up with the fad or what they say the "revolutionary fad" of today, the popular "aldub" kalyeserye.  People stop what they do to watch and focused their eyes on TV.  It is amazing how we can be so drawn to something as how this aldub phenomenon has drawn many people today.  Yet, the cure to whatever foolishness we make is tough-minded discipline.  I kept wondering why people can spend 2-3hours watching the aldub kalyeserye when they can't even open their Bibles for 30mins.  And the answer is here, because it will require tough-minded discipline.  It is our cure to our impulsive actions and foolish reactions, discipline!  So yes, it takes much effort to just open your Bible and read the word of God because only those that holds a tough-minded discipline in their lives can resist the fad and focus on the truth.

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, help me build and cultivate a tough-minded discipline in my life.  I want to be able to resist the fads or whatever foolishness I have in me so I get to live a life with discipline and in Your righteousness.  Give me the power and control Lord, better yet, take the control and lead me so I may be able to resist whatever temporary trend there is and be one with You at all times.  In Jesus' Name, Amen!

Memory Verse for Today:

Proverbs 22:15 (The Message Version)
