How to be a Disciplined Christian
How to be a Disciplined Christian
How to be Disciplined as a christian.
2 Sam 11 David should have been at war, too much time means undisciplined.
We’re not discipline because we have too much time on our hands
1. Pursue things (Marriage, Work, Serving, Exercise) that take away your time.
1. Proverbs 18 : 22
2. Col 3 : 23-24
3. John 15 : 9-17
4. 1 Tim 4 : 8

I completely disagree to pursue marriage just to get disciplined since Paul said to us in 1st chorintians that marriage brings trouble and he warns us from it (its still up to you if you really want to marry) but what your saying is pursue marriage while struggling with lust?? aren’t that quite controversial? you would likely to sin with them since you’re struggling.
I once heard the saying: The devil temps every man but an idol man temps the devil
Powerful!
pray st Gertrude prayer for atleast 10 times a day. Small contributions can be done. Don’t waste such opportunities. They will help you in your despair. There is no certain sins that lead you to hell. Any sin could could lead you to hell. You should be completely sin free to get in heaven. It’s not possible for human. But god can. Mathew 19:25-26 "Who then can be saved?" Jesus responds, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."So believe in jesus and accept him as your saviour."accept you can’t live a holy life yourself. And surrender yourself to jesus. And ask Holy Spirit that i desire to live a holy life and I know I can’t do it alone. So please help and guide me… You can see running away from sin is much more easier. Thank me later… ❤ jesus loves you. He died for your sins in cross
Pray and seek God for the things we are supposed to pursue. We are all not called to pursue the same things. Singleness is just as good as marriage. It’s about what God has for you. Same with kids. Be fruitful and multiply is not about kids because we are all not meant to have kids. We are all called to make disciples by living through the Holy Spirit (fruitful) and multiply His Kingdom. Don’t lead with expectations but with obedience. Lastly, he didn’t hit on it but spiritual exercise looks like denying your flesh daily, praying, and reading the word of God. We have to be intentional with these efforts because its what’s builds our faith
What if you are not ready for marriage?
Hi guys, I’m 28 years old but I have lost all the drive to work hard. I understand what he says about having a godly work ethic but I find it hard as a Christian. What should I do?
Brother, I love the testimony with your friend – put in the work now before you have the responsibilities of a family, so that you can build that discipline and build the right future by God.
Too much time in our hands is definitely the factor that leads to loss. Lost many jobs, opportunities, and relationships because of the things i did with the time i had in my hands. addictions, laziness, and complacency were all the fruit of the sins i committed everyday. even when i started going to the gym things looked alright for a minute.
Man this helped me with my summer boredom. THANK YOU!!!!!!
I’m trying to figure this out, brother. If you could help me out, that would be great. While watching this video, I struggled with self-discipline. As I watched and heard you preach and give tips, I heard a whisper saying "Rico" in the background. I was shocked and thought I was losing my mind because I was in my room and no one was with me. Could you please explain if someone is whispering in your video? My nickname is "Rico" and I was just wondering if you can tell me, please, is someone whispering in the background? 9:36
Wow this has a big impact on me!
Thanks
Time is not the issue. Most people have not enough time. Not following his purpose made David sin
Another so called believer that I have to unsucribe from. Mann. We don’t have nobody to look to for preaching truth. Believe om me as the scripture said, not as you perceive. Do not add or take away. GET OFF THE CAMERA………Be angry but do not sin. Ephesians 4:26. Get off. YES I follow Gino jennings. Get bible or get out of here SATAN…..
Amen
thank you very much! As a student in middle years I’ve really learned a lot just from listening to this. I request though that you’d pray for me, for my journey with Christ, because I am unsure I can do it alone. Pray for me, please and thank you overall for this video, even if u don’t see this. Hopefully I can also be a lot more disciplined.
Discipline is something you can learn to love ❤️
How do I know what work to pursue? How do I know what my gifts/talents are that God wants me to use to work? I’m stuck :/ (I am an 18 year old undergrad)
Praise the Lord!
He provides, they are His children!
Thank you brother. First time watching you and I’m subscribing. God bless you!
this video popped up tonight at the right time. great reminder. love the vids! As young man (21) striving for a godly life this helps.
timely
As a sophmore in high school, becoming a junior, I guess I could say that I’m unsure of my position right now. Everyday, I pray to God but it’s like I follow it but then the next moment I fail. I keep on giving into my feelings when scripture says not to. It’s not as hard as other people’s situations but in my case, it’s really hard because I don’t want to live in guilt and I want to pursue Christ with all my heart and all my soul so please pray for me so I can do that.
I had an ill health which put me in a huge debt, My brother and sister, i tell you this day to never give up on God and he will send you a helping hand. I was doing my bibble study online and came across an organization called Helen Zvart Froyan that helped put me out of this situation. I give all glory to God the most high for restoring my joy and putting laughter on my face once again. May his name be praised……..
1)Uriah wasn’t David’s best friend show me the scripture that states that? 2nd if you struggle with lust having a wife or seeking one out only intensifies the desire to sin personally seeking God’s presence is the best thing you can do! Paul teaches us to run from lust in 2 Timothy 2:22 to all the younger generations watching this video grab your Bible and study to show yourself approved don’t just listen to podcasts and videos you want to hear Gods Voice read the Bible aloud
Thanks for posting. God bless.
Amen brother. Thank you for the Video. God bless you. ❤
I agree until you speak about marriage. First off this is 2025. Secondly that’s great it worked for you but last I checked adam was sleep when God put eve in his presence. Third, God didn’t tell Adam to marry her, that was Adam that said this is flesh of my flesh. It’s Not for every man to be married otherwise it wouldn’t speak of elijah jeremiah and john the baptist. Genesis and kings talks about Enuchs. DO NOT, I’ll say it again DO NOT get men who were called to invite something in their life that God didn’t tell them to. Speak for yourself but stick to what scripture says or get off of the camera. This is what I dislike about youtubers honestly. He had me attention till you speak outside of scripture…..
Im 33 I feel lost I was raised in church I know the ways of him but I’m so far from him I am going to try to change
I saved this video once because I thought it was good. I messed around and watched it back with my wife. Sir. She heard you say just gone head and have that baby and God will provide the funds. Sir. What are you doing to me? I’m gonna need you to send us some money to make up for it
What if God don’t wanna give me a wife?
thank you♥
We have too much time on our hands… that is so true.
What stood out to me is that one thing that you should do to be spiritually disciplined is to work!!! If you work (for the Lord), your using your time effectively!!!
Thanks for the message!!!
Amen. Some thing that stood out to me was work. Work and pursuit of something is so key, and this has made me have a shift and now I will be looking for a good job where I can learn skills also as a 17 year old aspiring currency trader who is no longer at college and has a lot of time on his hands. God bless you Alex and everyone watching. Amen
I’m so sorry but I think it’s so irresponsible to tell people that it doesn’t matter if they don’t have a house nor money, they should still have children. Children are not toys nor “gifts” that you give to yourself, they are another human life and a responsibility. Having kids is a decision that you must take fully conscious of everything that involves having them. Not only the beautiful part but also the hard things that come with it. And money is one of them.
I firmly believe God provides but one thing is to believe that and one completely different is based such important decisions on the idea of “we don’t have a house nor money but yeah, let’s have children”. Such a bad message to send to your audience.
I loved how you correlated that David was supposed to be at war in the Spring with how we are supposed to work very hard while there are not a ton of responsibilities—to use the time that God has given well and to His glory in all seasons of our life. I am walking away today with so much clarity in how I need to move forward disciplined in His Spirit, which affects all aspects of my life.
AMEN 🙂
How dare you diss 1 punch man
Very Good!
Wow always ignored your videos i dont know hwy. Was looking for something to listen to while working and decided to finally watch yours. Thanks bro God bless you and your family.
Bro Alex, I have prayed for marriage to no avail. At the point where I am today, I feel God has turned his back on me with regards to marriage. I told myself I won’t pray for it anymore cos I feel tired. As a woman, I’m 40 and the situation makes me feel so bad deep in me.
Please pray for me to stay strong and focus on God. And not to stray away from his presence.
Thanks for always encouraging us with the word. Thanks
Still waiting for the video on what it looks like to pursue a godly woman @amenalex
Great Job!
