Strategizes Self-Discipline

ATTRIBUTE FOUR: A man welcomes and embraces self-discipline. He will use self-discipline as a means of accomplishing God’s purposes in his life, understanding that the flesh prefers indifference over discipline. The goal is to keep the prize in sight while becoming more obedient to the Spirit and less obedient to our flesh. The end goal is always to fulfill the purposes of God. In the private place of a man’s life he exhibits this in prayer, study, reflection, confession, service, worship, and fasting as the chief disciplines.
