My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord; neither be weary of his correction: For whom the Lord loves he corrects; even as a father the son in whom he delights (Liproverbia 3:11-12)
If you accept the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, and become tsoaloa hape by the Holy Spirit, you will become a son of God. You will be loved by your Father, and therefore your Father will also correct and chastise you. The Holy Spirit is your Teacher; He shall teach you into all truth, and correct you.
When you nchafatsa kelello ea hao with the Word of God, and apply His words in your life, then you shall be confronted with things, like your way of thinking, behaviour, maikutlo, maikutlo, actions, deeds etc., that you and the world consider normal, but are not normal according to God and His Word. Therefore they don’t belong in the life of a born again believer.
When you are confronted, there are two things you can do. You can accept His correction, obey Him, repent and remove it out of your life. Or you can ignore His correction, pretend that you didn’t hear Him and continue with your life. If you chose the latter one, then it won’t be long before your spirit will cease, and that your flesh shall dominate your life.
The chastening of the Morena
The Lord corrects and chastises you, because He loves you. He knows what’s right for you, and therefore He shall teach and guide you. If the Lord wouldn’t care about you, He wouldn’t correct you. Ka hona, don’t harden your heart, but have a willing heart. Allow the correction and chastening of the Lord, so that you will grow up and mature. You shall not only be a popo e ncha, but you shall also walk as the new creation, that God intended you to be.
