In today’s society, many believe that commitment is bondage. Commitment, dedication and discipline are not bondage; they are a vital part of the Christian life. We boast of freedom when, in truth, we refuse to respond favorably to disciplines of life. We have “good intentions,” but not much discipline. Ouch, this lifestyle of discipline is painful!


Although we must be disciplined in our natural walk, so must we be disciplined in the walk of faith. Faith cannot be a feeling, nor an experience, and not even a movement. Faith must be a lifestyle. To follow A LIFESTYLE OF DISCIPLINE on a regular basis requires a great deal of motivation. Others will never be able to consistently motivate us to a life of faith.


Today, make the spiritual choice, A LIFESTYLE OF DISCIPLINE. Refuse to be moved by what is seen or heard, nor be influenced by the masses not living by the Word, and will of God. Commitment is not bondage; it is a choice to live by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God. An abundant harvest will manifest by living “A
LIFESTYLE OF DISCIPLINE!"
