Topic: Discipline – A Raw Material For Destiny Fulfillment [Seeds Of Destiny 11 October 2019 Devotional]
Those who make global mark pay global price; nothing can be global without global inputs.
SCRIPTURE: Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. Hebrews 12:11
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Those who make global mark pay global price; nothing can be global without global inputs.
According to God’s servant, Bishop David Oyedepo, discipline is doing what is required in order to achieve what is desired. It is enduring the challenges in the immediate so as to create the platform for satisfaction in the ultimate.
The truth is, discipline is the foundation for the future. The future of David would have perished but not for his lifestyle of discipline. David practically became the King of Israel on the wings of discipline. (1 Samuel 18:18). While the rest of his brothers and peer group were squandering their lives at home in idleness, David was right in the bush alone tending the flocks of his father (1 Samuel 16:11). No wonder, the oil of kingship could not drop on the heads of his brothers. But when David arrived, the oil landed on him and he was anointed king over his elder brothers and the entire nation of Israel by the Prophet Samuel.
The meaning is, discipline will always rule over indolence any day.
Beloved, discipline is a maker of people; if you must be great in life, you must be disciplined. Those who make global mark pay global price; nothing can be global without global inputs. There is no destiny for the undisciplined, there is no future for the indolent and there can be no prospect for the casual. The choice for discipline is the choice to maximally fulfill destiny.
REMEMBER THIS: Those who make global mark pay global price; nothing can be global without global inputs.
ASSIGNMENT:
- Consciously determine to be disciplined in all you do.
- Consider the choice of paying the price for greatness if you want to be great in life.
PRAYER: O Lord, deliver me from the spirit of indiscipline. I receive Your grace to embrace responsibility no matter the cost. Help me to fulfill my destiny on time Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
