The Mercy of Discipline

The Mercy of Discipline

Read Isaiah 19:22
Today’s Truth

Look at these back to back words...“Striking and healing.” God striking Egypt. He also heals Egypt, which causes Egypt to return to the Lord. And God hears their pleas for mercy and heals them.

Discussion Questions
  1. How has God disciplined you in such a way that your pain caused you to run back to him?
  2. How has God listened to your pleas of grace and mercy?
  3. How has God demonstrated his healing in your life? What does God’s healing look like in your life?
Life Application

We need God to discipline us in love for Him to show us when we are wandering from Him, running from Him, for Him to show us the consequences of sin, to show us the affects of sin in our lives in ways that are not pleasant. Like, striking, nobody wants to be struck in that sense, but God in His mercy does that so that we might be healed, so that we might repent, so that we might return to Him.
