Be Happy, God Corrects.

Text: Job 5:17-18 (KJV)

Behold, happy is the man who God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty: for hemaketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.

As human, we all make mistakes from time to time, but the good part is that we have a God who can correct our errors and can rectify our shortcomings. What we have to learn is not to despise God’s discipline of correction; it might seem hard, but it ends with happiness. We must remember that the word of God is entirely for edifying, so get DAILY TABLET of the Bible. 2 Timothy 3:16- All scriptures is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.So, be excited when God steps in to correct you.  He can scold us with one hand and correct us with another hand; this is just because He loves us. So, I urge us to be happy when we receive those tips He drops on our way because He is a good God.  God does not want anyone to perish, instead, He gives us opportunity to change. Proverbs 29:17- Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.Therefore, pay close attention to God's corrections because he is extraordinarily patient. I pray we shall all be that yielded vessel in the hand of God and will not overlook those words of corrections for the words we receive from him are to amend and profit us.

Do not faint or get depressed when you do not like the corrections, because they are for our training and encouragement. We should be open to embrace Him because He does more than what any loving father can do for his children. He can rebuke us out of His love and still accept us even today. We should not be resistant to correction because that might be the way out of destruction and frustration. All God's instructions are for our benefits and not His, so always welcome them. Remember, the one He loves, He chastises. Proverbs 3:12- For whom the Lord loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth. May God help us to keep to his instructions at all time in Jesus name.

PRAYER POINT:

1.      Father, help me to keep following your corrections no matter how far I have gone on the wrong way, in Jesus name.

ACTION QUOTE:  Friends, be sensitive because God can use a human figure to correct you today
