* This verse doesn’t just apply to parents training kids through discipline.

* It also applies to baby Christians.

* They are “children” in their faith, and discipline is what will help them grow and mature in Christ.

* Discipline is doing what you don’t want to do to accomplish what you want to accomplish.

* It starts with conviction, then COMMITMENT (this involves discipline), then courage.

* Many people fail today because they experience conviction but never wrap commitments around it to lead to courage (standing strong in their faith).

* Discipline is the act of your soul (mind, will, emotions) submitting to your spirit.

* When you do this it will drive folly far from you!
