2 Peter 1:5-6 ~ Now for this very reason also, applying all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence, and in your moral excellence, knowledge, and in your knowledge, self-control … NASU

“strength” “to grip” “expresses the power or lordship” “power over, mastering, controlling, curbing, restraining” “right”

2 Peter 1:6 ~ to knowledge self-control Acts 24:25 ~ Now as he reasoned about righteousness, self-control, and the judgment to come, Felix was afraid and answered, "Go away for now; when I have a convenient time I will call for you." Gal 5:22-23 ~ But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control

Temper: Eph. 4:26 Laziness: Eph. 4:28 Words: Eph. 4:29 Appetites: 1 Thess. 4:3-5 1 Tim. 6:9 Prov. 23:21 Prov 25:28 ~ Whoever has no rule over his own spirit Is like a city broken down, without walls. (INVADERS)

Psalm 1:1 Matthew 16:24 1 Corinthians 6:12 2 Corinthians 10:5 Prov 25:28 ~ Whoever has no rule over his own spirit Is like a city broken down, without walls.

SELF-CONTROL IS BOTH A NECESSARY PURSUIT AND A PRODUCT. 1 Cor 9:24-27 ~ Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win. Everyone who competes in the games exercises self-control in all things. They then do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. Therefore I run in such a way, as not without aim; I box in such a way, as not beating the air; but I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified. NASU

SELF-CONTROL IS BOTH A NECESSARY PURSUIT AND A PRODUCT. “Fruit of the Spirit” > Gal. 5:22,23 Convict > John 16:8 Born > John 3:5; 1 Peter 1:23 Led > Gal. 5:16-18 Set their Minds > Rom. 8:5; Rom. 12:2 BONUS: “Self-control produces more self-control” God’s control!

We desire it … We know it … What will we do, now?
