God trains, guides, and directs us even when we don’t realize it.
Building self-discipline is what gives us the ability to bridge the gap between aspiration and victory.
Asking God for self-discipline won’t amount to much if your motive is not to love others.
To experience a transformation in our lives we must embrace spiritual training and discipline.
God is always moving on behalf of the good. One thing he is always trying to do is make up for where we are lacking, and in this way he wants to be the parent we’ve always needed and desired.
Discipline is the ability to have enough self-control to be trained, molded and taught in order to achieve something you desire or need. What area of your life do you want to see change? How can God helping you be more disciplined help you achieve that change?
Focus is giving a lot of attention, time, energy, etc. to one particular person, group, or activity. It’s having the ability to do one thing at a time, well done.
When we experience testing, pain and failure in our lives, it is easy to give into fear and doubt. “Flipping the Switch” is about learning to let God use our personal passion, ambition, dreams, pain, and setbacks for his greater purpose of saving lives.
God loves us and he guides us through discipline and training, just like a father who cares deeply for his children. How and where is God guiding your life?
Have you ever tried to change something, but given up after a few days?
God exerts and expresses an unwavering perseverance when he sees our good days having gone bad. He doesn’t stop loving us when we fail, sin, or give up.
This is a lesson for all of us about running and quitting. Before we “give up the ghost,” maybe we should check with God to find out if he has a plan.
