Here are just a few verses on discipline. Remember discipline is for correction and is given in love, and is not out of anger.
Prov 17:26
26 Also, to punish the righteous is not good,
Nor to strike princes for their uprightness.
NKJV
Prov 19:18
18 Chasten your son while there is hope,
And do not set your heart on his destruction.
NKJV
Prov 15:10
10 Harsh discipline is for him who forsakes the way,
And he who hates correction will die.
NKJV
Prov 13:24
24 He who spares his rod hates his son,
But he who loves him disciplines him promptly.
NKJV
Prov 22:15
15 Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child;
The rod of correction will drive it far from him.
NKJV
Prov 23:13-14
13 Do not withhold correction from a child,
For if you beat him with a rod, he will not die.
14 You shall beat him with a rod,
And deliver his soul from hell.
NKJV
Prov 29:15
15 The rod and rebuke give wisdom,
But a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.
NKJV
Prov 3:11-12
11 My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD,
Nor detest His correction;
12 For whom the LORD loves He corrects,
Just as a father the son in whom he delights.
NKJV
Prov 10:17
17 He who keeps instruction is in the way of life,
But he who refuses correction goes astray.
NKJV
Prov 12:1
Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge,
But he who hates correction is stupid.
NKJV
Prov 15:5-6
5 A fool despises his father's instruction,
But he who receives correction is prudent.
NKJV
P.S. My Dad just did a sermon on the Lord's discipline, which was my inspiration for this. Enjoy! (heehee)
