Do you feel like you are always being corrected and rebuked for every little thing you do? Are you annoyed as to why the Holy Spirit is always judging your motives and conduct rather than heaping praise on you? Psalm.73:13-17.

Well today the Holy Spirit gave me an encouraging word for you. Be assured that you are being corrected first because God loves you and doesn’t want you to fail. Just think about that reality. Hebrews.12:6-8.

The Lord has committed Himself to you triumphing in life and for that reason will not leave you to your own devices which will bring you failure. The Holy Spirit reminded me that the people He God leaves to their own devices are those that fall into perdition.

This is because they have received a hardened heart and are unable to repent and find deliverance. This is why we need to rejoice and be glad that the Lord is on our back always correcting our conduct. Hebrews.12:7 & 8.

The Holy Spirit went on further to explain that corrections also deal with us being empowered to navigate things more accurately from a wider spectrum of truth beyond our mindsets. This impetus from the Lord reflects in us seeing things from God’s viewpoint versus our limitations on matters which have much more far reaching consequences. Revelation.4:6 & 8.

It is only through Godly correction and rebuke that we can experience the operation of wisdom working for our benefit which enables us to make the right decisions which are vital for achieving Godly outcomes in our life’s.

The Holy Spirit then reminded me of those He never corrected in the bible and what their end was? I certainly don’t want to think about those peoples’ end because it is too painful. Judas is a clear example. Jesus said it would have been better for him never to have been born than to end up as he did. Acts.1:16-20.

This is the reality about those the Lord allowed to have their own way free of correction and of course the result of their ways which is untimely death.

We need the Holy Spirit pointed out to me to value most highly the correction and rebuke of the Lord because it ensures we remain in His ways and means we will walk in His paths of pleasantness and peace at all times.

Jesus He pointed out commanded us to follow Him not dictate to Him. Matthew.4:19. His record of leading people to success and victory is immutable so we can confidently follow His voice being fully assured that we will reach the side of victory and triumph. 1 Peter.5:10 & 11.

So today begin to develop a love and passion for the correction and rebuke of the Lord. Cherish it and just watch and see how you will be navigated out of paths of death, places of continual hassle and shame to paths of success, victory and great rejoicing.

Lay hold of the fact that His love for you transcends your love and care for yourself. Romans.8:37. Always remember that His love will keep you connected with His plan, purpose, design and intent for your life which will never change.

Rise up in the grace these words provide you and go out and have a conquering, victorious day in Jesus Name. Amen.
