God does not sanctify us through the tools of the rod and the rod alone. He sanctifies us through both suffering and blessing. God is a good father. He builds us up through the rod, through the pen, and through the blessing.

00:00:00.000 All right, listen guys, I get it. Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry
00:00:04.620 because you're spending your cash and your lives on raising young children in the fear and
00:00:09.500 admonition of the Lord. Praise God for you and that endeavor. However, algorithms are a thing.
00:00:16.220 Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing. And one major way that you can help to expand the reach and
00:00:22.520 effectiveness of this ministry that doesn't cost you a dime is by spending just a few moments
00:00:28.060 leaving us a five-star review.
00:00:31.180 Also, perhaps even more effective than that,
00:00:33.980 you can share our podcast with a friend.
00:00:36.400 We hope you'll take the time to do so.
00:00:38.300 Thank you so much.
00:00:39.580 God bless.
00:00:41.680 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone,
00:00:44.500 but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:47.460 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:52.360 God builds others up in his sovereignty with his scalpel.
00:00:58.060 With the tool of suffering.
00:01:01.540 But if we think for a moment that the only tool that God has at his disposal for our sanctification, our building up, is suffering.
00:01:12.300 Then we have actually a perverse and warped view of our Heavenly Father.
00:01:17.700 God actually builds us up, not exclusively by suffering, but through both suffering and blessing.
00:01:30.320 It's not just God is sanctifying me when I suffer, and he has in some sense abandoned me when I prosper.
00:01:39.660 That is not biblical theology.
00:01:41.860 god as a good father just as you do with your children he builds us up through the rod
00:01:52.140 and with the blessing suffering and blessing and so too if we are to build others up
00:02:04.320 and the way that God sanctifies the way that God builds us up we too in the realm of our speech
00:02:12.100 will not only utilize correction and come to Jesus conversations where we point out fault
00:02:21.780 we will also praise affirm appreciate those areas in which someone is by God's grace thriving
00:02:34.320 and growing, succeeding. We'll use both. Thanks so much for listening, but real quick, before you go,
00:02:41.720 do us a small favor, take a moment, and leave us a five-star review if you enjoyed the show.
00:02:46.980 This is undoubtedly the best way that you can help us get this biblically faithful content
00:02:52.220 to as many people as possible. Thanks so much.
