THE IMPORTANCE OF CORRECTION

Hebrews 12:6 (NIV)  Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but whoever hates correction is stupid.   The most demonic person you will ever meet is someone who hates instruction! The scripture above says God disciplines the ones He loves. You are in a very dangerous and unstable position if your pastor, apostle, prophet, or anyone you respect within the faith is afraid to correct you. Correction allows you to view life's difficulties through the lens of someone who may know more about the Word concerning your situation. God has placed leaders in their positions for the sole purpose of helping you! Refuse to let pride prevent you from recognising your own faults or areas for improvement. Instead of getting offended, learn to welcome correction and see your walk with God improve tremendously! PROPHETIC DECLARATION I welcome correction! Pastors and Leaders are put in their positions for my benefit. I shall not take offense when a leader offers to help me where they think I may be going wrong. I embrace wisdom and guidance, knowing it leads to growth and maturity. Through correction, I am strengthened, refined, and aligned with God's perfect will. I declare that every correction I receive propels me to higher levels of excellence and deeper intimacy with God. Hallelujah! FURTHER STUDY  Proverbs 12:1
