1. Know God’s commands. A growing knowledge of God’s word is necessary to see clearly what God desires for us to do.

2. Look to God for power. The Christian’s life is supernatural and is impossible to live on our own. When we step out in faith to obey God’s commands, he honors our obedience by empowering us to carry out these commands.

3. Develop the right attitudes. Our attitudes can either help or hinder us in developing a disciplined life. To have the right mind set is a key in becoming disciplined.

4. We should delight to do God’s will.

a. “I delight to do thy will, Oh my God; thy law is within my heart.” Psalm 40:8

5. We should do God’s will carefully.

a. The LORD your God commands you this day to follow these decrees and laws; carefully observe them with all your heart and with all your soul. Deut. 26:16

6. We should be sincere in our obedience.

a. But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop. Luke 8:15

7. The truly effective disciple will have a consistent devotional life.

8. A second area for disciplined obedience is prayer. God has established prayer to enable us to respond to him and communicate with him.

9. Evangelism is another area that requires discipline.

Prayer.
