A man with no correction; has a pretty good chance of ending up in the Department of Corrections.
Job 5:17, Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty:
God has so instituted the family that each person has their important role. While Mom does do much of the correcting, Dad has long been held as the disciplinarian in the home. According to the Word of God, Dad has been placed as the head of the home and such should be that disciplinarian.
I remember— little Jay gets home from school with his report card. Mom said, “A “F” in English Jay, You wait until Dad gets home.” he’s going to tan you hide! I wished I had a quarter for every time I heard that! You know what? That correction was good in my life. It probably kept me out of jail! I believe, it is one of the things we are missing in today’s society. Correction, accountability, and responsibility are just a few things we need to return to in our world today!
One day we will stand before a thrice Holy God and give an account what we have done with this life. What have we done with His Word? What have we done with the Truth? What have we done with the Gospel? Heed to this correction in your life today because it is good!
