DISCIPLINE & CHASTISEMENT – ARE GOD’S LOVE PACT
DISCIPLINE & CHASTISEMENT – ARE GOD’S LOVE PACT – FOR HIS REDEEMED CHILDREN: BEING DISCIPLINE THROUGH GOD’S MIRROR OF LOVE WORTH IT – DON’T RUN AWAY!
“Better is an OPEN REPRIMAND [of LOVING CORRECTION] than LOVE that is HIDDEN [CONCEALED]. 6 Faithful are the WOUNDS of a friend [who CORRECTS out of LOVE and CONCERN], but the KISSES of an ENEMY are DECEITFUL [because they SERVE his hidden agenda]” Proverbs 27:5-6/Amplified.
I want to believe that you know that God has your best interests in heart’s at – any day, any where and any time. And that God LOVES you unconditionally too and irrespective. And so, are good and godly people towards you in every respective in Christ Jesus stead. And we ARE only being DISCIPLINED and CHASTISED and REPRIMANDED and REBUKED by God in Christ Jesus stead, ONLY on matters that are unscriptural, and of naughtiness, and of foolish behavioural manners contrary to the context of His will for us as His dear children, in order to bring about the good and goodness out of us.
And our ability to ENDURE God’s DISCIPLINES and CHASTISEMENTS when it SHOWS up – it’s for our OWN good and eternal VIRTUE in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. God’s discipline [chastisement] is one aspects of the Christian faith in Christ Jesus, that many so-called Believer’s doesn’t want to reckon with; and especially when matters of LOVE pops up about them. And, when God have to use their heartfelt loving friends or colleagues or parents or any avenues deemed fit by Him to help them stand upright and strengthen up for their own good and goodness – they can’t and won’t fathom it until they found themselves in a messy place – because of their leaning on the deception and deceitfulness of the enemy and cohorts that only appeals to their sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation.
“And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: My son, do not DESPISE the CHASTENING of the Lord, Nor be DISCOURAGED when you are REBUKED by Him; 6 For WHOM the Lord LOVES He CHASTENS, And SCOURGES every son whom He RECEIVES. 7 If you endure CHASTENING, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not CHASTEN?” Hebrews 12:5-7.
Living and walking in God’s love also connotes, endorses, embraces and embodies the act of being DISCIPLINE and CHASTISEMENTS. Meaning God will discipline any of His REDEEMED children whom He LOVES, in order to bring out His very best in them and to give them the living worth they crave. This is part of the LOVE PACT of God.
The reason being that the redemptive LIBERTY, that is, the FREEDOM in Christ Jesus is not an OCCASION for one to live and walk in the flesh or sin, instead, it’s to LIVE and WALK in GOD’S LOVE. Simply put, there’s nothing like or as ‘it doesn’t matter what I do, as long as God loves me’. NO, it DOES matter what you do privately and publicly, because those that God LOVES, He DISCIPLINE and CHASTISES them, except they choose to be bastards or illegitimate children, which you ARE not.
“If you endure CHASTENING, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not CHASTEN? 8 But if you are without CHASTENING, of which all have BECOME PARTAKERS, then you are ILLEGITIMATE and not sons” Hebrews 12:7-8.
It’s my earnest PRAYERS that you live within the LOVE of God in Christ Jesus stead; and for any reason that you detailed anyway, may you be able to take on the discipline of God without a fight, so that you can have the fulness of God that’s at work for your good in everyway. 1 John 1:5-10.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“For if we would JUDGE (EXAMINE) ourselves, we should not be JUDGED (EXAMINE). 32 But when we are JUDGED (EXAMINED), we are CHASTENED of the Lord, that we should not be CONDEMNED with the world” 1 Corinthians 11:31-32 (Emphasis Mine).
“For consider Him who ENDURED such HOSTILITY from sinners against Himself, lest you become WEARY and DISCOURAGED in your souls. 4 You have not yet resisted to bloodshed, striving against sin. 5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: My son, do not DESPISE the CHASTENING of the Lord, Nor be DISCOURAGED when you are REBUKED by Him; 6 For whom the Lord LOVES He CHASTENS, And SCOURGES every son whom He RECEIVES. 7 If you endure CHASTENING, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not CHASTEN? 8 But if you are without CHASTENING, of which all have BECOME PARTAKERS, then you are ILLEGITIMATE and not sons. 9 Furthermore, we have had HUMAN fathers who CORRECTED us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more READILY be in SUBJECTION to the Father of spirits and live? 10 For they indeed for a few days CHASTENED us as seemed best to them, but He for our PROFIT, that we may be PARTAKERS of His holiness. 11 Now no CHASTENING seems to be JOYFUL for the present, but PAINFUL; nevertheless, afterward it yields the PEACEABLE fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it” Hebrews 12:3-11.
“STAND FAST therefore in the LIBERTY wherewith Christ hath MADE US FREE, and be not ENTANGLED again with the YOKE OF BONDAGE . . . For, brethren, ye have been called unto LIBERTY; only use not liberty for an OCCASION to the flesh, but by LOVE serve one another. 14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour as thyself. 15 But if ye BITE and DEVOUR one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. 16 This I say then, WALK in the Spirit, and ye shall not FULFIL the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. 18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law” Galatians 5:1, 13-18.
“This is the message [of God’s promised revelation] which we have heard from Him and now announce to you, that God is Light [He is holy, His message is truthful, He is perfect in righteousness], and in Him there is no darkness at all [no sin, no wickedness, no imperfection]. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness [of sin], we lie and do not practice the truth; 7 but if we [really] walk in the Light [that is, live each and every day in conformity with the precepts of God], as He Himself is in the Light, we have [true, unbroken] fellowship with one another [He with us, and we with Him], and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin [by erasing the stain of sin, keeping us cleansed from sin in all its forms and manifestations]. 8 If we say we have no sin [refusing to admit that we are sinners], we delude ourselves and the truth is not in us. [His word does not live in our hearts.] 9 If we [freely] admit that we have sinned and confess our sins, He is faithful and just [true to His own nature and promises], and will forgive our sins and cleanse us continually from all unrighteousness [our wrongdoing, everything not in conformity with His will and purpose]. 10 If we say that we have not sinned [refusing to admit acts of sin], we make Him [out to be] a liar [by contradicting Him] and His word is not in us” 1 John 1:5-10 Amplified.

MONTH NOVEMBER 2024: ENTITLED – “LOVE: THE CONQUEST”
MONTH NOVEMBER 2024: ENTITLED – “LOVE: THE CONQUEST” – TO ENSURE OUR MORE THAN CONQUERORS POSITION OF GRACE!
It’s Month November 2024, and month to kickstart conquering by LOVE: THE CONQUEST, the enabling to help us to ensure all things becomes possible in grace, as we do life and godly living in Christ Jesus stead; and this becomes inevitable when you “. . . KNOW THE LOVE OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS . . .” [Ephesians 3:17-19]; and it’s for you to know more so and full well, that it’s only by the act of LOVE: The CONQUEST, that you can actualised the more than conquerors position of grace in our redemption, in all of life battles in the kingdom; hence I sincerely in grace, WELCOMED you to MONTH NOVEMBER 2024, the month of conquering and ensuring you are more than conquerors through God’s kind of love, as entitled: “LOVE: THE CONQUEST!” and as written:
“Who shall ever separate us from the LOVE of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36 Just as it is written and forever remains written, “For Your sake we are put to death all day long; We are regarded as sheep for the slaughter.” 37 Yet in all these things we are MORE THAN CONQUERORS and gain an overwhelming victory through Him who loved us [so much that He died for us]. 38 For I am convinced [and continue to be convinced—beyond any doubt] that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present and threatening, nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the [unlimited] LOVE of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” Romans 8:35-39/Amplified.
The term CONQUEST is a noun and thus denotes the act of conquering, acquiring or gaining control – which results means: to takeover, gain acquisition, have an invasion and such like into another territory which could be human or things. And could also mean attaining success by mastering something difficult. And conquering makes one then to become a CONQUEROR. Conquest implies and connotes also a successful act to takeover or have domination in any sphere of doing life and living godly in the grace; thus indicates that CONQUEST refers to the act of gaining control over a territory, people, or resources as may be applicable.
And for the Believer’s in Christ Jesus stead, we know that we are constantly engaging and contending in a SPIRITUAL AND FLESHY WARFARE [1 Timothy 1:18; 1 Corinthians 10:3-6; Galatians 5:16-25] in our sphere of ensuring to do life and live godly in the grace. And each elements of these battle’s, either in the flesh or spiritual, is about keeping to the status quo in the FIGHT OF OUR FAITH in God, in Christ Jesus stead [1 Timothy 6:12]. For the enemy and cohorts knows very well that if it can and able to break through our faith toward God in Christ Jesus, the rest about us will be neutralise with ease and defenceless. That’s why you can’t compromise your faith no matter what may. And our faith is inoperative, inactive and dysfunctional without love. For love is the lubricant upon which faith essence are made possible. [Galatians 5:6]. The enemy of faith is fear – and when love is your vehicle of CONQUEST, fear is dissimilated and vanquished, giving room for the good fight of faith that makes one a more than conquerors in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [1 John 4:17-18].
While indicating “LOVE: The CONQUEST”, it’s for the Believer’s in Christ Jesus, to use the vehicle of love to conquer their life battles and challenges and circumstances – especially in every matters of sense knowledge, which indicates the matters of the flesh – by what you see, hear, feel [touch], taste and smell that tends to ruin us as individuals, in family, in society, in the world and from being as a decent human being to others through sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. [2 Corinthians 5:7].
Being able to exercise and enact the act of the conquest in the kingdom, is only possible when we KNOW THE LOVE of God in Christ Jesus; the love that surpasses, transcends, and supercedes the human sense knowledge to make us a more than conquerors. [Ephesians 3:17-19; Romans 8:35-39].
For Love is a two-edged sword; and God is love:
* And one-sided act of the love depicts – The Father God of Love, who sent His only begotten Son Jesus Christ into the world for the cause to seek and to save us all from the sin bondage that we are held down by the enemy to do naturally, without being remorseful. And God in His love, by so doing, was and is using the act of love to sets us free in His Son Jesus Christ, who eventually fulfilled that cause of love to redeem us to Father God in himself and therein we find peace and tranquillity in our inner self. [John 3:16-18; Hebrews 4:12-13; Luke 19:10 (John 18:37; 1 John 3:8)].
* The second-sided act of God’s love which is unfortunate, is that some will go to condemnation [damnation] and also struggle in life by the act of the enemy and cohorts of our faith in Christ Jesus, for their rejection of the love that God gives to us all, as an opportunity for freedom from the enemy and cohorts and to conquer all battle in life, in His grace, by faith in love. There’s therefore the need to know that in the matters of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus and in the kingdom, that conquering is only through – “LOVE: THE CONQUEST!” as Father God expressed in Christ Jesus [John 3:16-18; John 5:28-30; Romans 13:1-2; 2 Peter 2:1-10].
When the spirit of conquest through love take holds of us in Christ, that’s when the mantle and essence of being a more than conqueror becomes a reality in Christ Jesus. Then we can be emboldened not to fear but to stand tall in the faith, our shoulders high, our head up and on the high heels of the faith that gives the victory and makes us overcomers. [Romans 8:37 (32-39); 1 John 4:16-18; 2 Timothy 1:7; 1 John 5:3-5].
And when we make God’s love our conquest tool in the fight of faith, our purpose of God in Christ Jesus stead is enacted, and God in His grace, will then reveal and unveil the mystery of His will that’s particular to you unhindered [Romans 8:28; Ephesians 1:19-12; 1 Corinthians 2:8-10].
God’s kind of love is the conquest to deal with hatred, unforgiven spirit, resentfulness, bitterness, wrath, rancour and such like, if you want to both hear [listen] and answer your PRAYERS [Psalms 65:2; Mark 11:24-26; Romans 12:9-21; 1 Corinthians 13; Psalms 65:2; Matthews 6:38-48].
So, in this month November, as God helps me to unveils the mystery of love in our dealings of life matters – in relationships [Ephesians 5:21-33], in family [Ephesians 6:1-4; Colossians 3:18-21], in leadership and work spaces [Ephesians 6:5-9; Colossians 3:22-4:1], in the Ministry of the Gospel [Ephesians 4:11-16; Philippians 1:15-18; 1 Corinthians 13:1-13], in dealing with strangers and neighbours [Luke 10:25-37]; in dealings with our so-called enemies and cohorts [Proverbs 25:21-22; Romans 12:19-21; Matthew 5:43-48], and other such like as per our relationship with God [Romans 8:28; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10] – be prepared to know that the way through to life and godliness in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
I pray that you may know the love of God in Christ Jesus stead, that’s given and bestowed upon us and to help us by the Holy Spirit of promise [Romans 5:5], to enable us do life with God and man, and to become all we ought to be in purpose and be fulfilled meaningfully in the grace ensuring – LOVE: THE CONQUEST!
Blessed regards.

“. . . 35 Who shall separate us from the LOVE of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the LOVE of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” Romans 8:32-39.

AFD NOVEMBER EDITION
WELCOME TO MONTH NOVEMBER 2024: THE MONTH ENTITLED – “LOVE: THE CONQUEST” – IN DOING LIFE AND LIVING GODLY CHRIST JESUS STEAD!
You are specifically and specially WELCOME TO MONTH NOVEMBER, it’s your Month of conquering and ensuring you are “more than conquerors” through love as it’s entitled: LOVE: THE CONQUEST! For conquering by LOVE: THE CONQUEST, makes doing life and living godly to become possible when you have come to . . . know the LOVE of God in Christ Jesus . . . as it’s written:
“. . . 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts [human spirit] by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 19 and to KNOW THE LOVE OF CHRIST, which passess [supercedes, transcends] knowledge [human sense], that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God . . .” Ephesians 3:14-21/Emphasis Mine.
It’s time to take on the challenges of life from all angles using the “LOVE: THE CONQUEST” medicine to make it possible. For its only by conquering through “LOVE: The CONQUEST”, you can actualised a “more than conquerors” in redemption in all life battles as written:
“. . . 35 Who shall separate us from THE LOVE OF CHRIST? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are MORE THAN CONQUERORS through him that loved us. 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from THE LOVE OF GOD, which is IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD” Romans 8:32-39
However, before exploring the Month theme – “LOVE: THE CONQUEST”, as you follow along through the months writs and post that you will be seeing and reading, let’s consider the terms of Month November in essence.
The month of NOVEMBER as any other DAWN months in the Julian and Gregorian calendar year, is crucial and important in the cause of the numbering of our days under the Sun, in order to fulfil PURPOSE by God, in Christ Jesus stead – [Colossians 4:17; Romans 8:28; Ephesians 1:11]. And it thus re-echoes and reminds me as in other DAWN months, of some important matters and thoughts in the year as described in the settings being laid down below; and also, with the knowing that it’s God who makes things to be, in each passing days, weeks and months, and He is the one who crowns the year with His GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE, in all that pertains to doing LIFE and living GODLY by God in Christ Jesus stead as it’s written:
“This is THE DAY [WEEK, MONTH, YEAR] which the Lord hath MADE; we will REJOICE and be GLAD in it” Psalms 118:24/Emphasis Mine.
“Thou CROWNEST THE YEAR with thy GOODNESS; and thy paths DROP FATNESS (ABUNDANCE). 12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side. 13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing” Psalms 65:11-13/Emphasis Mine.
Therefore, my acronyms to month November, can be summed in these context:
FIRSTLY, that the month NOVEMBER is the eleventh and penultimate month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian Calendars, the fourth and last of four months to have a length of 30 days and the fifth and last of five months to have a length of fewer than 31 days. And it is the last month of fall in the Northern Hemisphere of the world while in the southern half, it is the last month of spring in count.
SECONDLY, that the month of NOVEMBER is the third of the four months with the “BER” endings – SeptemBER, OctoBER, NovemBER, and DecemBER. This signifies the eleventh hour month to the closing month of the year to usher in another DAWN year; and for me as an example, it helps me as matter of principle in diligence, prudence and productivity toward ensuring a meaningful and purposeful fulfilment in the closure of the dawn year by the eleventh hour month; and to evaluate what the year has been and what I need to make up that’s lacking within and without, in order to end up strong, stronger and strongly in the current dawn year; and to take stock of the outstanding testimonies in God’s graciousness, gracefulness and blessedness toward me in family, ministry and all I care about which includes you that’s reading this writ right now, in the course of doing life and living godly, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
And THIRDLY, the Month NOVEMBER been the ELEVEN month of the year, it engages my thoughts toward engaging with benefits of the TEAM spirit, when you consider the ELEVEN PERSONS in the making of a FOOTBALL TEAM. Thus, indicating the needs to work together in with others, in a common purpose with a team spirit in order to achieve a common results as a team. This is important, irrespective of the quality of the personality of the individual player’s terms that is involved. The aim is to see the need to achieve results together and collectively as a team rather than as an individual lone person with innumerable opportunity of engaging with others.
Therefore, get set to conquering all matters of life challenges to ensure and be assured through month November theme entitled – “LOVE: THE CONQUEST”.
Blessed regards!

DON’T JUST GIVE UP BASED ON YOUR HEALTH DETAILS
DON’T JUST GIVE UP BASED ON YOUR HEALTH DETAILS: PRAYERS CHANGES THINGS – YOU CAN LIVE AGAIN!
“Beloved, I wish ABOVE ALL THINGS that thou mayest PROSPER and BE IN HEALTH, even as thy SOUL PROSPERETH” 3 John 1:2.
“Beloved, I pray that in every way you may SUCCEED and PROSPER and be in GOOD HEALTH [PHYSICALLY], just as [I know] your soul PROSPERS [SPIRITUALLY]” 3 John 1:2/AMP
Don’t let your worlds come down before you when it’s within you to make the difference and change your dearly need. You can create the desired atmosphere you wants to see and enjoy in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, through making your own PRAYER WALL relevant with you toward God and toward Christ, by the Holy Spirit on the Word of God, and by Faith in the grace, as in your rights and privileges in REDEMPTION, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
“Therefore, since we have been JUSTIFIED [that is, acquitted of sin, declared blameless before God] BY FAITH, [let us grasp the fact that] we have PEACE with God [and the joy of RECONCILIATION with Him] through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed). 2 Through Him we also have ACCESS BY FAITH into this [remarkable state of] GRACE in which we [firmly and safely and securely] STAND. Let us rejoice in our hope and the confident assurance of [experiencing and enjoying] the glory of [our great] God [the manifestation of His excellence and power]” Romans 5:1-2/AMP.
It’s time to TURN OFF any form or platform of DISTRACTIONS, then raise your PRAYER WALL and TURN YOUR FACE TOWARD God and TOWARD Christ Jesus, in your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus, for an ANSWER to your QUEST.
“And how I kept back nothing that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publicly, and from house to house, 21 TESTIFYING both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance TOWARD God, and faith TOWARD our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21.
If Hezekiah could change the COURSE of his HEALTH sentence history that was certified unto death, and that of his City curse and REVERSE the eclipse of Sun that was once held back by Joshua, through PRAYER WALL, in turning off from human limitations and distraction, and turning toward God for an ANSWER, you can [Joshua 10:12-14]. I say you can because I know He’s the same God yesterday, today and tomorrow. Amen. [Hebrews 13:8]. HE NEVER FAILS ME YET GOD, is who, whom, how, when, where and what I call Him. I have SEEN and EXPERIENCED and keep EXPERIENCING Him again and again, and He does things and keep doing awesome things now and always. Your case can’t make a difference to Him at all for Him to resolve it speedily if you let Him. And He will ANSWER you indeed. Amen.
“And said, If thou wilt DILIGENTLY hearken to the VOICE of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is RIGHT in his sight, and wilt give EAR to his commandments, and KEEP all his statutes, I will put NONE OF THESE DISEASES upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: FOR I AM THE LORD THAT HEALETH THEE” Exodus 15:26.
“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. 26 There shall NOTHING CAST THEIR YOUNG, NOR BE BARREN, in thy land: the NUMBER OF THY DAYS I WILL FULFIL” Exodus 23:25-26.
Give it a go today – even now. Don’t give up. Don’t faint. Don’t go weary. Don’t submit to that deadly medical report. Take it up with God in Christ Jesus stead on your PRAYER WALL as Hezekiah did in his DISTRESS and FAILING CIRCUMSTANCE.
You can MAKE your difference, by the HOW TO DO IT as Hezekiah did – making and using your own – PRAYER WALL.
May God’s enabling grace and BLESSEDNESS abound with you accordingly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“In those days was Hezekiah SICK UNTO DEATH. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came unto him, and said unto him, THUS SAITH THE LORD, SET THINE HOUSE IN ORDER: FOR THOU SHALT DIE, AND NOT LIVE. 2 Then Hezekiah TURNED HIS FACE TOWARD THE WALL, and PRAYED unto the Lord, 3 and said, REMEMBER now, O Lord, I beseech thee, how I have WALKED before thee IN TRUTH and with a PERFECT HEART, and have DONE THAT WHICH IS GOOD IN THY SIGHT. And Hezekiah WEPT SORE. 4 Then came the word of the Lord to Isaiah, saying, 5 Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, I HAVE HEARD THY PRAYER, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will ADD unto thy DAYS fifteen years. 6 And I will DELIVER thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria: and I will DEFEND this city. 7 And this shall be a SIGN unto thee from the Lord, that the Lord will do this thing that he hath spoken; 8 behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down” Isaiah 38:1-8 [Parallel Scriptures: (2 Kings 20:1-11; 2 Chronicles 32:24-30)].
“Then spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord DELIVERED up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, STAND THOU STILL upon Gibeon; AND THOU, MOON, in the valley of Ajalon. 13 And THE SUN STOOD STILL, and THE MOON STAYED, until the people had AVENGED themselves upon their ENEMIES. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day. 14 And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the Lord fought for Israel” Joshua 10:12-14.

DISCIPLINE & CHASTISEMENT – ARE GOD’S LOVE PACT
DISCIPLINE & CHASTISEMENT – ARE GOD’S LOVE PACT – FOR HIS REDEEMED CHILDREN: BEING DISCIPLINE THROUGH GOD’S MIRROR OF LOVE WORTH IT – DON’T RUN AWAY!
I want to believe that you know that God has your best interests in heart’s at – any day, any where and any time. And that God LOVES You too irrespective. And to being disciplined and chastised for any unscriptural naughtiness and behavioural manners as His children makes the good and goodness of you. And your ability to ENDURE His DISCIPLINES and CHASTISEMENTS when it SHOWS up – it’s for your OWN good and eternal virtue. That’s one aspects many doesn’t want to reckon with, when matters of love pops up about them.
“And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: My son, do not DESPISE the CHASTENING of the Lord, Nor be DISCOURAGED when you are REBUKED by Him; 6 For WHOM the Lord LOVES He CHASTENS, And SCOURGES every son whom He RECEIVES. 7 If you endure CHASTENING, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not CHASTEN?” Hebrews 12:5-7.
Living and walking in God’s love also connotes, endorses, embraces and embodies the act of being DISCIPLINE and CHASTISEMENTS. Meaning God will discipline any of His REDEEMED children whom He LOVES, in order to bring out His very best in them and to give them the living worth they crave. This is part of the LOVE PACT of God.
The reason being that the redemptive LIBERTY, that is, the FREEDOM in Christ Jesus is not an OCCASION for one to live and walk in the flesh or sin, instead, it’s to LIVE and WALK in GOD’S LOVE. Simply put, there’s nothing like or as ‘it doesn’t matter what I do, as long as God loves me’. NO, it DOES matter what you do privately and publicly, because those that God LOVES, He DISCIPLINE and CHASTISES them, except they choose to be bastards or illegitimate children, which you ARE not.
“If you endure CHASTENING, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not CHASTEN? 8 But if you are without CHASTENING, of which all have BECOME PARTAKERS, then you are ILLEGITIMATE and not sons” Hebrews 12:7-8.
It’s my earnest PRAYERS that you live within the LOVE of God in Christ Jesus stead; and for any reason that you detailed anyway, may you be able to take on the discipline of God without a fight, so that you can have the fulness of God that’s at work for your good in everyway. 1 John 1:5-10.

“For consider Him who ENDURED such HOSTILITY from sinners against Himself, lest you become WEARY and DISCOURAGED in your souls. 4 You have not yet resisted to bloodshed, striving against sin. 5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: My son, do not DESPISE the CHASTENING of the Lord, Nor be DISCOURAGED when you are REBUKED by Him; 6 For whom the Lord LOVES He CHASTENS, And SCOURGES every son whom He RECEIVES. 7 If you endure CHASTENING, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not CHASTEN? 8 But if you are without CHASTENING, of which all have BECOME PARTAKERS, then you are ILLEGITIMATE and not sons. 9 Furthermore, we have had HUMAN fathers who CORRECTED us, and we paid them respect.

“This is the message [of God’s promised revelation] which we have heard from Him and now announce to you, that God is Light [He is holy, His message is truthful, He is perfect in righteousness], and in Him there is no darkness at all [no sin, no wickedness, no imperfection]. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness [of sin], we lie and do not practice the truth; 7 but if we [really] walk in the Light [that is, live each and every day in conformity with the precepts of God], as He Himself is in the Light, we have [true, unbroken] fellowship with one another [He with us, and we with Him], and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin [by erasing the stain of sin, keeping us cleansed from sin in all its forms and manifestations]. 8 If we say we have no sin [refusing to admit that we are sinners], we delude ourselves and the truth is not in us. [His word does not live in our hearts.] 9 If we [freely] admit that we have sinned and confess our sins, He is faithful and just [true to His own nature and promises], and will forgive our sins and cleanse us continually from all unrighteousness [our wrongdoing, everything not in conformity with His will and purpose]. 10 If we say that we have not sinned [refusing to admit acts of sin], we make Him [out to be] a liar [by contradicting Him] and His word is not in us” 1 John 1:5-10 Amplified.
