Welcome to Daily Growth Point, I’m Pastor John Bingham.

If you have had a good father, then you understand that there were times when he had to provide a loving discipline. A good father understands the goal of discipline is to direct the heart of the child to love the Lord with all their strength.

The Bible teaches us that we have a heavenly Father that loves us with a perfect love. It is a love that is unselfish and even in times of discipline is for our good. Hebrews says, “For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth…”

The Bible teaches us that as a Christian, our sin doesn’t destroy the relationship we have with God, We will always be His child. But Sin does hurt our fellowship.

Even in our sin, we find that God loves us and will bring a chastening to restore the fellowship that has been broken by sin, which reminds us that we belong to Him.
