Day 6: The Father’s Loving Discipline

When the Lord disciplines us, He reveals His displeasure with an area in our life. This is not the same thing as God’s displeasure with us as a person. Some mistake divine correction for divine rejection. God hates the sin yet delights in the one He disciplines.

Meditative Scriptures

  1. Heb. 12:6
  2. Rev. 3:19-21
  3. Rom. 1:24
  4. 1 Cor. 11:32
  5. Rom. 2:4
  6. Rev. 2:21-22
  7. Pro. 19:18
  8. Song 3:2-3

Application

  1. Describe the difference between a holy God’s discipline versus a broken human dad. Describe any false perspectives of our heavenly Father that need to be repented of.
  2. Explain the eternal consequence if God never disciplined you.
  3. Give an example of how someone who had Jesus as their First Love would respond to Jesus disciplining them.
  4. What are the differences between God’s final judgement and His discipline? What are the similarities?
