YOU MUST BE TEACHABLE AND CORRECTABLE



Proverbs 12:1 (NKJV) Says; “Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge, but he who hates correction is stupid.”


The Bible makes it clear that loving instruction and correction is a mark of wisdom. If you want knowledge, you must accept guidance and be willing to be corrected. To hate correction is to remain foolish and unwise. Why? Because no one is perfect, and no one knows everything. Growth comes when you are willing to listen, learn, and adjust your ways. A person who rejects correction blocks the path of wisdom and locks the doors of progress.


Learning and correction are parts of the process of growing into perfection. You don’t know everything, and that means you will make mistakes. But mistakes don’t make you a bad person, they make you human. The word “human being” itself shows we are in the process of becoming. We are not yet complete or perfect.


If you want to excel, grow, and become better than who you are now, you must be teachable and willing to accept correction. Many people fail in life not because they are weak, but because they think they know everything. That mentality destroys destinies. Pride closes doors while humility opens them.


Some of you were good and teachable, but because of small achievements, you now act like Major Generals of everything. You no longer allow anyone to correct you, you don't take any advice. Even if you are the boss, remember—you don’t know everything. Learning never ends. Every day is a classroom, and life is the teacher.


Here is a secret many people ask: How do I know a correct man or woman to marry? The answer is simple, choose someone teachable and correctable. A spouse who refuses correction will make life difficult. But a humble and teachable partner brings peace, growth, and success to the family.


So, how do you become teachable and correctable? The answer is one word: "Humility". Pray for a humble heart. A humble heart accepts correction, learns daily, and grows into greatness.


Prayer: Lord, give me a humble heart that is teachable, correctable, and ready to grow.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

DO NOT COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS

  "I know what it is to be poor or to have plenty, and I have lived under all kinds of conditions. I know what it means to be full or to be hungry, to have too much or too little. Philippians 4:12 CEV" God’s purpose for humankind is for everyone to succeed, but each person has their own season. Just as each flower blooms in its own time, each of us has a time set by God. When that season comes, God will make you prosper. Until then, keep praying and working hard, trusting in His timing. When you look at your peers, former classmates, family members, or others in your age group and see their success, it’s easy to start comparing. Maybe a friend just built a new house or got a high-paying job, or perhaps someone you know is getting married. If you feel like you’ve achieved more, you may feel good about yourself. But if you feel like you’re still “behind,” it’s easy to feel discouraged and inadequate. This is where your perspective can become distorted. Some people think they ar...
