Fruitages of Self Control
Knowing the fruitages of self-control can assist you with cultivating your power to take control
of your life. Self-control is a derivative of the spirits of joy, love, long-suffering, peace, faith,
goodness, and kindness. For these traits “no law,” can prevail, which means you have
ultimate self-control.
In modern times, self-control must be established by developing self-discipline. By
considering examples, one can note how self-control will assist you with maintaining a better
life. Job for example, the bible character maintained his self-control despite his family
members and friends encouraged him to do what was bad, yet he upheld self-control,
prevailing, and each test he endured and ultimately reaped grand rewards.
One of the greatest ways to cultivate self-control is developing a healthy fear of God Himself.
Thereafter you must work to cultivate the spirits of joy, love, peace, goodness, kindness, faith
and long-suffering.
Let us try to build these characteristics today:
Joy – Joy is one of the fruitages of the spirit that brings one, happiness. To develop this
source of pleasure however, one must cultivate love. Love is the ultimate trait you must
develop to welcome self-control. However, since love has been tarnished, we must learn that
true love is love, which is unconditional. This is not an agape love, as we know it today.
Defining Love:
Love is a feeling of affections for the fellowman or neighbor and self. We have the ability to
love our enemy, yet hate their ways. Understanding that hating what is bad is essential for
developing love, which moves you to self-control. Thus, we must self-analyze to determine if
any hate is in our blood. If we have hate in our blood, thus one must move to eliminate and
abandon these negative energies to develop love and self-control.
Love is friendship, which means that one must devote to love his neighbor as self, and to
have a passion to show tenderness and compassion, yet become assertive and affirmative
when faced with challenges that go against love.
Partialities or prejudices are prohibited with unconditional love. If you have prejudice thinking
then you have hate, which means that your love is superficial. By recognizing and developing
fear of the true God, you will understand that in Timothy, God clearly states that He is not
partial. Therefore, as humans we do not have the right to judge anyone for any purpose.
Thus, we must self-analyze to discover any partiality we may house in our mind. You can
maneuver and control these thinking patterns by using logic and reason. Logic and reason will
move you to open your mind to truths.
To develop love, one must hate what is bad. The scriptures in Proverbs 8; 13 clearly tells us
to hate what is bad. Not one scripture in the bible tells us to hate a person, but to love our
enemy. Loving your enemy does not mean that you have to affiliate with them, rather that
you recognize that these people are blinded by darkness and cannot see what they do to
others.
Badness comes in many forms, which appear tempting, pleasurable, or enticing. By keeping
alert, you will know badness when it presents self. Observing and acknowledging what is bad
will assist you with making sound decisions, which ultimately provides you self-control.
We encourage you to learn more of the fruitages of love to develop your self-control. When
you work toward love, thus the remaining fruits of self-control will become easier to
accomplish. You will find joy, long-suffering, peace, faith, goodness, and kindness a rewarding
task, rather than a punishment. Refer to your bible to learn more about the fruitages of self-
control.
