But God\u2019s discipline is always good for us, so that we might share in his holiness. No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening \u2014 it\u2019s painful! But afterward there will be a peaceful harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way. Hebrews 12:10-11 There\u2019s a big difference between punishment and discipline. Punishment is intended to be punitive, to make the person pay for wrong. All who are in Christ need never fear that their suffering is a result of being punished for sin.<\/p>\n

How do we know that? Because Christ has already been punished for our sin, so we don\u2019t have to be. But discipline is different. Discipline is purposeful. Discipline is something a loving father does. The writer of Hebrews tells us, \u201cthe Lorn disciplines those he loves\u201d and, \u201cNo discipline is enjoyable while it is happening \u2014 it\u2019s painful\u201d (Hebrews 12:6, 11).<\/p>\n

\u201c… endure this divine discipline,\u201d the writer encourages. \u201cGod’s discipline is always good for us\u201d (Hebrews 12:7, 10). God is the perfect parent. His discipline is never too harsh or inappropriate. We do not always know how best to discipline our children, but God does. He always knows and does what is right.<\/p>\n

Obviously, experiencing discipline doesn\u2019t feel good at the time. It feels like hardship and loss and pain. But we can endure his discipline in our lives because while it\u2019s painful, we’re confident it\u2019s purposeful. God\u2019s purpose in disciplining us is that we might \u201cshare in his holiness.\u201d God wants his children to bear the family resemblance.<\/p>\n

He wants us to live in a way that demonstrates that we share the passions and priorities of our Father. When we are willing to be trained by his discipline \u2014 to be molded and shaped by it \u2014 something beautiful happens. Something blossoms in our lives \u2014 a peaceful harvest of right living. Prayer Heavenly Father, we never grow beyond our need for your loving discipline.<\/p>\n

So, keep loving by disciplining in the way that only you can. But please, be gentle. Give the grace to endure your divine discipline and give the joy of experiencing a peaceful harvest of right living as increasingly shares in your holiness. \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014. Im praying Hebrews 12 for you today, asking your heavenly Father to be gentle with you as he works in and through the suffering in your life to discipline you toward increasingly sharing in his holiness.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I lie awake through the night watches, I earnestly pray for friends who are suffering greatly. I ask God to stretch their tolerance for pain, stoke the smoking embers of their hopes, and to build in them a rugged, more sturdy faith. And now, I have this excellent guide, I\u2019m Praying for You, to assist me with my intercessions.<\/p>\n

I couldn’t be more thrilled, for my good friend Nancy Guthrie has filled this remarkable work with powerful scriptures and personal wisdom, all of it so timely and practical. After living long with pain and quadriplegia, I know firsthand the enormous impact prayer has on one\u2019s ability to persevere through heart-wrenching suffering \u2014 so get out your prayer list, open the pages of Nancy\u2019s book, and pour the authority of Scripture over the wounds and weary hearts of those for whom you intercede!<\/p>\n

They will never be the same … and neither will you.\u201d Joni Eareckson Tada, founder, Joni and Friends International Disability Center \u201cThis is a beautiful Scripture-grounded and Jesus-centered guide for praying for those who are hurting. Nancy Guthrie is gold and so is this book!\u201d Randy Alcorn, author; founder and director, Eternal Perspective Ministries \u201cThis unique book is a precious gift for God\u2019s people. In these short, devotional chapters, Nancy Guthrie teaches us to pray more effectively \u2014 more specifically and more biblically \u2014 for those around us who are going through trials and suffering.<\/p>\n

Unlike any book on prayer that I\u2019ve ever seen, this is not a book that you simply read … this is a book that you use. And I will use it often!\u201d Scott Anderson, President & CEO, Desiring God \u201cThis book is a brilliant idea. It will help many of us pray for, and encourage, our brothers and sisters who are suffering. I thank God for it.\u201d Christopher Ash, Writer-in-Residence, Tyndale House, Cambridge \u201cThe prayers of God\u2019s people have always been a precious and priceless gift to me, but never more than during my husband\u2019s recent journey with cancer.<\/p>\n

This wonderful, practical resource from Nancy Guthrie will help you give the gift of encouragement by praying biblically-grounded prayers for friends who are going through the fire and by sharing how you are praying for them that day.\u201d Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth, author, Revive Our Hearts founder, and Bible teacher \u201cIn I\u2019m Praying for You, Guthrie has written the most practical, scripture- infused guide to prayer that I have ever seen.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
