Solomon said in the book of Proverbs, 'He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city." (Proverbs 16:32)

Self-discipline “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.” Galatians 5:22-23 "Add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self- control...." (II Peter 1:5-6).

"Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it. And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate (exercises self-control) in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown, but we for an imperishable crown. Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty.

Thus I fight: not as one who beats the air. But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified." (I Corinthians 9:24-27).

"Only the disciplined ever get really good at anything." Max Anders

Disciplined Moral Character "For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable in all things.“ (I Timothy 4:8)

Discipline our Appetites "Have you found honey? Eat only as much as you need, lest you be filled with it and vomit." (Proverbs 25:16).

"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body,“ (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).

Discipline Your Speech "If anyone among you thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this one's religion is useless." (James 1:26).

Discipline in Arranging Our Priorities "Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." (Matthew 6:33).
