Yesterday, we know that the LAST command of our beloved Jesus to us was to make disciples and hence that should be our FIRST concern. In fact, Apostle Paul had this to say in 1 Corinthians 9:16, "yes, woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!" He further went on to say in verses 26 and 27 that "Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty. Thus I fight: not as one who beats the air. But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified." I think it is a very good piece of advice from Apostle Paul. As we labour in the Lord, let us not forget to discipline ourselves. The word "discipline" connotes an effort on our part not to let our guard down and not to be carefree but be careful to continue our usual spiritual habits of reading His Word, praying and spending time with God, else we ourselves may not be qualified. https://twitter.com/EstherOngHC
