Title: Develop Self-Control

Scriptures: Proverbs 25:28

God’s Message/Promise/Commands:

Amazing day with Jesus! Proverbs 25:28 says...A person without self-control is like a house with its doors and windows knocked out.

A person without self-control invites the thief to come to his house and rob it, isn't that purely ignorant?  But that's what God tells us.  Without self-control, we allow sin or any other negative destruction to come and destroy our place.  This means, the thief/destroyer can take away not just the material things but also your joy, peace and happiness. And for that reason, although it is hard, we ought to learn self-control.  We need to discipline ourselves to build our walls up and protect what is ours from the enemy who comes to take away and destroy whatever is good.  Start by building a habit of good practices such as praying daily and reading God's words.  These 2 actions may be simple yet there's a huge struggle in just committing to doing it consistently.  So practice self-control each day and build a life of discipline.

Happy Tuesday!

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, thank You for a wonderful message today.  Help me Lord to develop self-control in my life that the enemy may not be able to rob me from whatever is good in my life that You gave me.  Lord give me wisdom to always learn and choose discipline rather than carefree or without it.  Protect my life Lord and help me to build my wall up by practicing self-control at all times.  In Jesus’ Name, Amen!
