​God's Chastening of His Children

• Hebrews 12:5-6 - And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. 

• I Corinthians 11:32 - But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. 

• Psalm 94:12 - Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law...

• Job 5:17-18 - Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty: For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.
