God’s Chastening
My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD, Nor detest His correction; For whom the LORD loves He corrects, Just as a father the son
in whom he delights.
Proverbs 3:11-12
We are in the Old Testament, and the children of Israel are making an 11-day journey in 40 years. Why 40 years? It is because God wants to take an inventory of their lives. He wants to take an inventory of every person’s life.
Once God takes an inventory of my life, He either keeps me or chastens me. God chastens me because He loves me and He wants to use my life. If I do not learn, He removes me.
Not only does God chasten me, but He has written the Old Testament and the New Testament as examples for me. These are the things God does in order to bring my life into alignment with His will.
We need to learn from God’s chastisement and from the examples in the Bible.
It is like the class I am teaching, when I give a test and the students do not pass it. I am not going to give them diplomas until they pass the test.
That is what God does. Every time you fail, you have to retake the test. Pass the test, so you can be used greatly by God.
We are always in the forge or on the anvil; by trials
God is shaping us for higher things.
-Henry Ward Beecher-
