TOPIC: CRITERIA FOR HIS CALLING: By Discipline (19)
MEMORY VERSE:
Exodus 23:25.
“25. And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.
BIBLE READING:
Daniel 1:8, 11-12
“8. But Daniel was determined not to defile himself by eating the food and wine given to them by the king. He asked the chief of staff for permission not to eat these unacceptable foods.
11. Daniel spoke with the attendant who had been appointed by the chief of staff to look after Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.
12 “Please test us for ten days on a diet of vegetables and water,” Daniel said.”
The mercy of God shall locate and transform your life this week in Jesus wonderful name, Amen.
To move forward in our study we shall focus on Discipline as another criteria for God’s call. A Disciplined person is a person prepared for God’s call. Every assignment of God entails discipline, an undisciplined person will never attract His attention. No matter the gift you possess without discipline success can’t be achieved so therefore, God searches out for discipline souls to extend His calls to.
Daniel and his four friends were slaves in Babylon. They would have seen the place as a place of enjoyment and pleasure but we learnt they disciplined their selves from eating the kings meal and opted for vegetables and water. Not a wonder when they came out ten times better than their equals after ten days. If they were better just ten days, how would they have been after one month, a year and for many days in the land of Babylon? Discipline in our words, thought, attitude, money and habits is a criteria God searches for in a vessel. May I ask if you are discipline enough to move with God’s call? Discipline is one key that God is interested in His servant. When you have this lifestyle God can’t look away from you.
Good Day and God bless you.
