Freedom Needs Discipline

You can be free and still be undisciplined.

Scripture Anchor

“All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient…”  1 Corinthians 6:12 KJV

One of the misunderstandings about freedom is that because we can do something, we should. Paul knew better. 

Maturity asks another question: 

● Is this profitable?

● Does it strengthen me?

● Does it agree with who I am becoming?

● Does it help or hinder what God has entrusted to me?

There are things you may have every right to do that wisdom will tell you to leave alone. That is not bondage. It is maturity.

Remember: Freedom gives you choices, but Wisdom governs what you choose.

Warfare Prayer

Father, thank You for the liberty we have in Christ and for the wisdom that teaches us how to use it.

We reject impulsiveness, excess, and appetites that seek to govern us.

We declare that nothing outside Your will will master us.

Our choices are disciplined, our desires are submitted, and our liberty will honor You.

In the matchless name of Jesus Christ, Amein.

Shalom,
Hephzibah Christly
