TOPIC: THE CHARACTER OF WINNERS: THE POWER OF SELF DISCIPLINE

SCRIPTURE: [27] But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway - 1 Corinthians 9:27

MEMORY VERSE: Proverbs 10:17

DIGGING DEEP: Self-discipline is the ability to control one's feelings and overcome one's weaknesses. Indiscipline is a life where a person lacks the will-power to do what he knows to be the correct thing.
One of the greatest enemies of progress and advancement is indiscipline. A break down in discipline is the collapse of destiny. Proverbs 25:28 says that "He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls."
Every Divine agenda for your life won't take root if you lack discipline. It won't grow when your will is not submitted under God's will. Self control always puts you in alignment with the will of God, hence the manifestation of God's thoughts and plans for you.
A life of indiscipline is a life under danger and high risk. Because nothing hunts down great destinies like indiscipline. The greatest trap of greatness is the lack of discipline. For instance for the lack of self discipline Esau lost his birth right. He choose the enjoyment of food over valueable and enviable position he had. It was from that day in the realm of the spirit that he handed over his rightful blessing to his younger brother. Valuable things are lost if a person is devoid of discipline.
If you cannot control your anger, your appetite for food, coveteousness, too much sleep or lust for the opposite sex, you cannot get to the height God destined for you.
The products of self discipline:
1. FOCUS
2. COMMITMENT
3. ZERO COMPROMISE
Winners are throughly disciplined people, they don't allow junks and don't enjoy what others enjoy. They train themselves to say no to things that are detrimental to their goal.
Finally beloved, anything that will be detrimental to you making heaven, detrimental to fulfilling your destiny put them aside today, say no to compromise and enjoy all the things God has for you.
I pray for you today, recieve grace to discipline self in Jesus' name.

PRAYER: O Lord help me to prevail against flesh and to overcome wrong attitudes that hunts my fulfilment of destiny in Jesus' name.
