Definitely reading my Bible I'm procrastinating most of the times....and then i feel bad. i know if i spend time in God's word there will be more blessings in my life 💖✝️
Am a 10-year-old who thinks I can start worshipping the Lord at a young age, Since am going into High school very soon I think it's going be hard to balance God and be more disciplined with Him so I decided to start reading my Bible and when I started reading I learned more things so Thank you very much for making this video😁💖🌺
Wow 10 years old and following Christ. First of all, give yourself a huge pat on the back. You are inspiring. What a beautiful soul you have. We need more children like this. Keep following him.
Amen!! 🙏 Remember to always pray to Lord Jesus Christ, God The Father, and Holy Spirit for advice/guidance and to talk!! Amen!! 🙏❤️ Good job for getting through the tough moments, I am sure The Lord Your God is proud that you pushed through the difficulty and stayed strong for Him!! 🙏💕 Praise The Lord Your God!! Amen!! 🙏☺️
my Grandpa is a very discipline person. he's a moslem and pray at 04.30 every morning. yes every morning, never skip it. he's 92 years old now, he is a professor medical doctor. he eats healthy, take his vitamins, he loves gardening, he never stops learning. he's blessings for our family. Please pray that Jesus saves him.🥰🙏🏼
Such a blessing ❤️. I want to age where my grandchildren and all my beloved will be saying this about me. I'll ask God to make me more disciplined and consistent ❤️
I'm a teenager and it is REALLY hard for me to read the Bible when as you said, " there are other things I could be doing." This helped me so much! Thank you 😊 God bless.
But also remember you not reading your Bible everyday doesn't define you ,what defines you is your faith .i read my Bible once or twice a day or sometimes i don't read my Bible and i get voices in my head telling me "You don't love God or you forgot God" but again i remember I'm defined by my faith and not my works or my observation of the law
As a pretty much fourteen year old struggling with home life and solitude, this was an important video for me to watch. I can't go out for prayer walks due to my home life and where I am however I *can* wake up early and go sit in the garden and pray and I think that's enough for me. I'm so glad I was saved, man. Praise the Lord
I've also been stuck at home from my online homeschool, and my family doesn't quite see solitude like I do, so I definetely can relate with you. I'll keep doing my best to seek comfort in the Lord. May he continue to guide us both ❤
Scripture says the fruit of the spirit is self control. As followers of Christ, if we walk with the Spirit and overcome our fleshly desires, one of the results is being disciplined. Pray for strength and courage to overcome 💗 you got this!
I get up early every morning for my quiet time with the Lord’s word. I’m currently following a read the Bible in a year plan and I have to say, it has helped me tremendously.
I hope this helps someone struggling… I’m 64 and I wake-up about 5am but my body and mind are tired. Over the past 20 years my health has declined and now instead of reading scripture, I listen to Grace for Purpose or Grace Wins morning prayer. My mind is on our Lord and it blesses me knowing God sees our struggles and knows our heart and will always make a way for us. Discipline your mind and body while you are young and God will reward you. 🙏🏼 Thank you Ashley for your uplifting channel.
I am 19 and recently rejoined my Church but feel so ashamed that I'm not sticking to my daily Catechism study. This was very insightful for that and more! thank you and God Bless
I was raised in an atheist household. 6 years ago i gave my life to the lord and was baptized in the Lutheran Church. I dont know what a good routine with the lord looks like as my parents never taught me these things or lead by any example. Your videos are teaching me how to be a woman of god and I look up to you as an example. Thank you and god bless
You need a grocery cart. It will save you so much time & effort. Put all grocery bags in the cart. Roll into elevator. Put up groceries. Bam you’r done! My first time tuning in. You are SO wise for your age. You are a blessing!
Thanks Ashley, I'm a 70 Y/O woman. I have some discipline, and placing God first thing every day is crucial for me. ☺️ However after listening to your message inspired me even more. At this age, I still want to thrive and succeed, but most of all, to please My Lord and walk His roads. But many times, I "gave" myself permission to be lazy because I'm older. Your message reminded me that as long I fulfill my priorities, it's ok to do nothing sometimes....as long I walk with Jesus✨️🙏✨️
I'm so guilty if trying to tackle too many things at once. I get frustrated, I fail and get down and give up and laze about the house. But God has really been working with me these past few months and I've been slowly adding in habits instead of trying to cram a ton of them into a single day and it has been incredible. I've been learning so much about patience with God and with myself. Thank you for this video!
This is the first video that I've seen from your channel. The Lord put this in my feed to really change my life. I have become so lazy in a lot of the important things except working. I didn't even go to church today because of my laziness. I know God is telling me He is here to help, just by this video popping up. Thank you! 😊 🙏🏼
Sorry long comment! I have to wake up at 4:30 am 😢 Monday to Friday for my secular job I’m a First Lady Pastors wife and is at my best interest to seek the lord early But have to be in the road at 5am to be at work at 6pm to come out at 3pm, drive a hour 1/2 getting home at 4:20 running to get dinner at the table by 6pm then get ready and on the road by 6:20 for service at 7pm to come home 9:30pm to do the same next day. So with that being said goals and routines are going to depend on lifestyle, mines is super busy and crazy there’s million things in between this that I didn’t mention, the best time for me, is in the way to work to listen to the word or a teaching and pray on the road and wen I get home between 4:20-5:30 I’ll pray some more Is hard but God gives us strength, Pray for pastors this is not easy , and is so real Especially wen they have secular jobs and also running a church 🙏🙏🙏 and then Saturday and Sunday I can’t even contemplate to get up At 4 or 5 so working on it maybe like you said. Something more realistic like 6 or 7 am ❤
"Your feelings are not a good indicator of what you should be doing." -- woo! I can take this and apply this to so many areas of my life. This is the first video I have ever seen of yours and I've subscribed!
This is the most helpful and realistic video I've seen in a long time. Without the Lord we are lost in all areas of life. He is our source of discipline.
Hey Ashley! I’m a 15 year old girl and I’ve been reading my bible every day, about to hit 2 weeks straight! I tried waking up at 5:30 this morning to read my bible before looking at my phone, and it was SO HARD, but I did it, and it was AWESOME
I’ve needed this for a while. I usually pray a 1 minute basic prayer in the morning then go to my phone. I’m pretty lazy, and I’m so grateful I saw this. I know I needed to change it. I ordered the Bible that has the certain passages per day because I feel like my relationship with him is falling. I never knew what to read. I tried opening to a random page and 30 seconds later I go on my phone. I never feel like it but yet I’m here sad over loosing my relationship with him. So I’m gonna need a little work!!
I understand I’m scared I will fall away from him but he will never let go of us it’s so beautiful spending time with him you can find him when you are simply laughing and get reminded that he created laughter so you get happier , find him in the little things !
I woke up at 12:30pm yesterday. I was so tired of this so I prayed for self discipline, and today when I set my alarm for 7am, here I am awake and cooking breakfast. Then this video popped up on UA-cam 😯
I also have the habit of reading the bible daily, and when i dont feel like it and think" why should i do it today.... like, leave it for tomorrow" i think about how muxh time i spend on my other things and that i can read my bible.... it really is life changing
One thing I can say is that tip 2 is right. If you feel tired in the morning, by the time you get into your own schedule all of your tiredness will go away. So you have to move forward and do the things you want to do.
This video felt so different than usual discipline videos... in an amazing way! I love that you started with grace, literally made me cry a little. So often we "bully" ourselves into discipline. Having grace with ourselves is huge! This video really blessed me. Thank you for making it and sharing your love of Jesus with the world!
Girls, look into cycle synching. Our bodies are different EVERY single day. Usually before your period you will need extra calories and feel a bit more tired. After that, your energy goes back up. The cycle synching method (Alissa Vitti is great) changed my live, I can eat all I want throughout the month anddo the right excersices, I don't feel bad when I sleep a bit extra because I am nourishing my body. Great video!
I didn’t come to UA-cam to even look for videos on self-discipline (I came to listen to a song 😂). Then for whatever reason (I think we know Who) I clicked on your video. I definitely needed this encouragement! Thank you! 💜✝️
I am so encouraged by your videos. Three weeks left for my accounting module exam. I am a full time working mom which gives me a lot of excuses. Thank you for teaching me to pray for self-discipline. Please pray for me.
I desire to be more discipline in praying more, studying the Word of God More! I was stagnant for a period, but I don’t want to be lazy anymore! I need God so much 😢
Thanks so much, Ashley! I really needed this! I’m 17 and I have always been super disciplined but lately I’ve needed some motivation to keep me going. This did it! Thanks again! Love from California!
Mallory J. *~Hot Tears of Jesus, YAHUSHUA in Heaven~* [ Apostle/prophet]: I attempted to answer, instead tongues tore out of me! But they were different, urgent tongues; hot tears fell on my face. Then the RUACH ha KODESH [Holy Spirit ] showed me [Jesus] YAHUSHUA. He was knelt on the ground. He is facing Gabriel and he has his face covered with his hands and he is weeping. Sobbing so hard. He spoke and I can hear these words. The sobs tore out of me as if it was HE weeping through me. The tears I let dry on my face, so hot they were. Knowing somehow these weren't fleshly tears but tears coming from YAHUSHUA. I can still feel them on my face as though they were dried there and stayed. These are the words the RUACH ha KODESH now puts back into my spirit for I am ordered to, "Tell them MY Child, tell them for ME." 1/24/98 given to this Child, Warrior, Bride of YAHUSHUA ha MASHIACH. * * * * * * * *Although I rejoice at coming to take MY Children out of this wicked* world, to carry MY Bride home in MY arms, I weep and I sob for I am torn in half. So many will be left, so many that call themselves MINE and yet MY Spirit is not in them. They will be left to suffer the wrath of Almighty God YAHUVEH! Tell them MY daughter, tell them for ME. Warn them. Many will listen and obey this prophecy. I weep for the churches that are overflowing and people stand in line to get in the churches. *Yet MY RUACH ha KODESH (Holy Spirit) is not in these churches.* These people call themselves mine, and they don't know ME. They are the church of the pretenders. Tell them MY child, tell them for ME. They will be left to suffer the wrath of Almighty God YAHUVEH if they don't REPENT! What a tragedy. Tell them MY child, tell them for ME [More]. ''Return to Me'' ~~> Return to Holiness, Return to serve ME.

1. Continue my Bible/quality time in the creative artsy way that’s been life changing. 2. Reading/study Mindset renewing books for self growth and good parenting. 3. Money Management study and application. 4. Practicing bettering my weaknesses in business and social communication skills. 5. Serving at church, and community faith building activities I believe I’m supposed to be doing consistently.
I almost didn't watch it because of the title. I have watched so many of this kind but now I am glad I watched the whole video and I feel it's exactly what I need. Why? It resonates with my beliefs. Thank you so much. Thanks for the free health habit tracker. God bless you!
❤️this is gonna help me so much I have been struggling to wake up and make my bed in the mornings, struggling to open my bible and read it! I need to do it to make myself feel accomplished and to draw closer to God!
I'm 43 and I'm learning so much in my Christian Walk. I listen to the Christian Talk Radio, The Word. The Bible is becoming so understanding and condensed that it's not complicating. FYI: I get up for work at 4:45a.m., and early for the weekends to make the most out of each day.
Three areas I want to grow in - - Workout for at least 20 minutes 5/7 days a week - Doing my Homework 30 minutes to an hour after getting home from school - Going to bed at 9P.M. and waking up at 6A.M.
Hey, Ashley I been struggling in my walk for so long. I been in this path for 7 years and I still come out short. I will love my walk to be so strong and for me fill full. I stop going to my church because I can't walk up at 8:30 am service, I use to go to 11:30 service but is to full and I started getting anxiety will at church with so many people around. to make it short I love listening to you and I hope I can remember in human and this walk is hard but GOD will walk with you and give you Grace will you walk with him. I want to start new and get better everyday. thank you
I absolutely loved this! I have been majorly struggling with discipline, and taking notes and discussing things on this video itself has allowed me to grow by 1% today. I pray to the Lord that he gives me discipline to open my Bible and intentionally listen to His word each day.
@@Sara91971 i mean...you did click on this video and replied to a comment. I pray you can encounter him in our life, Jesus loves you so much he was willing to die for yours sins so you may have eternal life
I just started reading the bible few days ago and presently I'm jobless due to my illness and anxiety disorder which doesn't allow me leave home, so I tend to wake up late then read my Bible, I believe only God can help me and turn things around for me...thank you for these videos,they are really helpful and God bless you
Jesus Christ loves you and knows you by your name. You're blessed and highly favored. You're a mighty woman of valor. May the LORD surprise you with healing and restoration in Jesus Christ's Name. May all the illegitimate squatters leave your body ,soul, mind and spirit in the mighty name of Yeshua Son of the living God. Arise, shine for thy light has come. Shalom
This is the first video I've seen by you, and it is definitely a timely message. I'm counting this a birthday present to me from the Lord! I so needed this today.
I found your channel in my worst situation. I think the first video I watched is the one about self-love. My heart is so broken and no family and friends can understand me in my situation, I know God is the only one who can heal me and He is guiding me in this healing process.
Thank you for this! As a single mother of a 2 year old and 17 year old…yep 14 years apart…it’s so hard to find time to spend with God and by myself if I’m not intentional forget it. Gotta have that grace for yourself!
Today is day 4 of waking up before work and getting on my exercise bike. I've been reading the Bible online at work. It helps boost me and I have more patience for my colleagues ❤
Great message. I love that you go over how our feelings are not what we should be letting direct us. I've been a Christian for over 10 years and I still don't feel like getting in the Word everyday but I do. I've exercised for just as long and I'm not always excited to get on that treadmill but guess what I do and BAM, I feel great afterwards. I love all the steps you shared.
I came across your video a couple days ago and marked it to watch later, but I guess the Lord had other plans because this vido kept showing up. Your first point about leaning into grace really stood out to me. And something we all need to do daily. Father Mike Schmitz said something in one of his sermons that really struck me which can be tied into discipline with reading the bible and spending time with the Lord. He said that every time you put off prayers, or reading the bible, or going to Mass; what you're really saying is no to the Lord. That whatever you are doing instead, you are telling God that it is more important than Him. Those words Father Mike said really struck home for me. I never want to say no to God. I never want to disappoint Him. So every time I feel like I don't want to read my bible, or I don't have the energy to prayer or do my daily devotional, I remember those words and ask myself, do I really want to show God that this thing I would rather do is more important then Him. Those words have helped me become more disciplined in my faith.
Thank you SO MUCH for this!!! Discipline is something I’ve been struggling with probably since the summer of 2021. I have motivation to work out and read the Bible, but not to pray and wake up early. It’s been so hard for me to wake up early recently and I’ve been sleeping through every single one of my alarms. But thank God there’s grace!!!
This video was super helpful thank you Ashley! You literally hit all of the goals I've been struggling to become more disciplined in: spending more time with God, working out and waking up early (and amongst other things lol). I've been struggling on how to make it all fit, especially in the mornings. But thank you for bringing the realistic pov to it, you can't do everything. Prioritizing is key! I want to wake up earlier so I can take more advantage of my days and ease more into my day and not feel rushed when I'm going to start work. Discipline was my word for 2023 and I'll definitely be carrying that into 2024.
Ashley , I just recently found your channel, however you have already helped me so much put God as my priority! Already you have inspired Me to KEEP GOING! I don’t always feel like putting God before my social media , or sleeping in. , or “me” time … yet you help remind me that TRULY I want Him more than those things! Other UA-camrs draw me toward myself and my own self discipline… but you help me run to the Father!!! Love you Ashley !! Thank you for helping me!
I’ve had aura migraines since 12 years old. Society has taught me to keep it on the down-low. The most debilitating part is not being able to see for awhile and it affecting my speech and clarity. I’m blessed to have discovered my triggers though and can avoid them without too much hastle. My triggers are fasting (even if I’m drinking plenty of water, stress, neck misalignment (so I do yoga to combat and professional massage when needed), too much sugar, and sometimes red wine. Hope this helps someone
i wish i could like this video more than once...because the Lord laid this on my heart last night and here you are explaining it so perfect to me and i didn't even go searching for it
What you shared in this video is so true. Most of the time, the things of the spirit don't come with ease. The enemy in a way knows the power in the things of the spirit, like praying, fasting, or getting up early to do the things that would help us get better in our spiritual life, so he puts up things that would stop us from doing them. My take out here is that we must be intentional, pray to God for help, and take action. Thank you so much, Ashley.
I must say I can relate to all that u hv said.I am in my discipline season I failed so many time I love the fact that u mentioned the Grace of God true his Grace is sufficient for all of us so even in my failed I still weak and try again I kept inviting God and reminding myself that I can still do it I am going strong now and it feels amazing reaching the goal they is soo much u mentioned honestly I felt like oh well I am not the only one going through this 🥰
God always finds a way to give me what I need to succeed when I need it. I’ve never seen one of your videos and this popped up on my feed. My prayer for the new year was for God to help me get back on track with life: my routines, my time management, my homeschooling routine EVERYTHING. I was going good for quite a bit however, I did what you said, “set 5 million alarms” so to speak. One big disruption later (I had to go to a wedding out of town that involved staying a night) and BOOM! What I was doing kinda fell apart and now I’m 💯 waking up at 8:30 and getting bummed! Thank you for having such wonderful God filled advice! And for reminding me of God’s grace and His desire for us to succeed in Him! My motivation for this year is Jeremiah 29:11 and your video fits right in! God bless!
This is helping me so much as a teen Christian! I really struggle with waking up and reading my bible, just spending more time with him in general! I have been wanting to start it, I will be like "Oh well I should start next week, or oh I'll start with the new month.' NO, I can start tomorrow! or even today! 🤍
So needed to hear this!! There is a culture where we need to "feel" our feelings all the time rather then speaking to our Father .we need to understand what he wants for our life
New subscriber here - this truly blessed me! Thank you for this. I'm going to read my Bible after this video is over and try to wake up earlier though I can't lie it's difficult with my mom duties (I have a toddler), homeownership duties, wife duties, working FT, etc. It's tough but I trust in the Lord to help me be more disciplined. 🙌🏾
This was soooooo good Ashley! Love this!!! God's timing put you in my path. I've been so lazy in my faith. And I'm trying to get back on it. Glad He is speaking through YOU!
Im thankful do God that I’ve found your video. I need to lean into grace because every time I fail on doing something like wake up early, I keep beating myself up because I failed again
Personally i dont understand how people can go throught life without Jesus his presence is something you will never have enough of the joy and peace you feel being with Jesus nothing or no one in this world can give it. I love me some Jesus he all that i have in this evil world and i am not letting go of him❤❤❤❤
I loved the message. Short and feasible. Thank you Ashley. This is God talking to me on the 1st of the month Feb . Pray that I be able to fulfil the desires of my heart, and come closer to Jesus.
That’s how I feel about going to the gym. Sometimes I’ll listen to my feelings about the gym and then I’ll skip out on the gym for a week or more. That’s something I’m really trying to work on
I was scrolling through UA-cam feed and your video popped up. The Lord is good like that ...I know I needed to hear this. Just the title caught my attention.
Such an awesome video! Thanks, Ashley! I'm watching this while on the treadmill right now! Getting better at doing the things I need to get done! You're awesome and God bless you! ❤️🙏
Thank you for making this.... Beautiful points to ponder. What strikes me most is leaning on grace and asking God for help. So far I have been struggling with just thinking it's me who needs to do it. Thank you for spelling out that clearly for us... I will put this little things starting with waking up
girl! how come you always show up when i'm in need of this type of advice? thank you so much for letting God use you this way to inspire others and help them improve. keep it up!
I would like more discipline with waking up early, making time for God, budgeting, working out, spending time with my son and the people I love and setting myself up for success. Lord I ask you come into my life and help give me daily guidance with taking care of these responsibilities. Love your daughter B!
watching your videos gives me so much joy! ❤it also always tends to fill my heart with a lot of hope, that God too wants to help me more. Thanks Ashley
1. Lean into Grace 2. Don't act by your feelings, feelings come and go, you need to act before feelings come. You will feel better 3. Ask God for help 4. Do it for _the_ you five years from now 5. Habit tracker helps 6. Set realistic goals, if you try everything at once you won't be able to do anything really. _Need to listen this again_ 💪🏻
I've been struggling a lot with managing well my time, reading the bible, praying basically my time management was the worst that I always find myself always late in everything and I would always go to sleep not content at all sooo feel so blessed to ❤ to see this video thank you so much Ash❤
what do you want to have more discipline in this season?! let me know in the comments 🥰
Definitely reading my Bible I'm procrastinating most of the times....and then i feel bad. i know if i spend time in God's word there will be more blessings in my life 💖✝️

I asked God to help me with these things AND self discipline...and bam! This video pops up in my feed! He is so faithful ❤
Amen 🙏🙏🙏
I hope this helps someone struggling… I’m 64 and I wake-up about 5am but my body and mind are tired. Over the past 20 years my health has declined and now instead of reading scripture, I listen to Grace for Purpose or Grace Wins morning prayer. My mind is on our Lord and it blesses me knowing God sees our struggles and knows our heart and will always make a way for us.
Discipline your mind and body while you are young and God will reward you. 🙏🏼
Thank you Ashley for your uplifting channel.
I need disciple in all parts of my life. Including reading my Bible, working out, waking up early, eating healthy etc.
Me too!!!!
I am 19 and recently rejoined my Church but feel so ashamed that I'm not sticking to my daily Catechism study. This was very insightful for that and more! thank you and God Bless
I want to have more discipline in waking up early and reading my bible consistently. ✨
AMEN!
i love this!
Receive this today! 🤍
Me too at 7am
Amen
I been wanting to get up at 5:30 and keep putting it off . And reading my Bible need to be one of my priorities.
I was raised in an atheist household. 6 years ago i gave my life to the lord and was baptized in the Lutheran Church. I dont know what a good routine with the lord looks like as my parents never taught me these things or lead by any example. Your videos are teaching me how to be a woman of god and I look up to you as an example. Thank you and god bless
You need a grocery cart. It will save you so much time & effort.

Thanks Ashley, I'm a 70 Y/O woman. I have some discipline, and placing God first thing every day is crucial for me. ☺️ However after listening to your message inspired me even more. At this age, I still want to thrive and succeed, but most of all, to please My Lord and walk His roads. But many times, I "gave" myself permission to be lazy because I'm older. Your message reminded me that as long I fulfill my priorities, it's ok to do nothing sometimes....as long I walk with Jesus✨️🙏✨️
I love this for you! 🙏🏾
My Mom is 73-I love this!
You are right Noemi! As long as we put God in first place all is gonna be okay.
@@IAmEricaNakita😊
I'm so guilty if trying to tackle too many things at once. I get frustrated, I fail and get down and give up and laze about the house. But God has really been working with me these past few months and I've been slowly adding in habits instead of trying to cram a ton of them into a single day and it has been incredible. I've been learning so much about patience with God and with myself. Thank you for this video!
This is the first video that I've seen from your channel. The Lord put this in my feed to really change my life. I have become so lazy in a lot of the important things except working. I didn't even go to church today because of my laziness. I know God is telling me He is here to help, just by this video popping up. Thank you! 😊 🙏🏼
I am in the same spot as you. I needed this to wake up from my laziness.
Me too!!!
same!
you are not alone. i am so glad you are here 🤍
@Ashley Hetherington Thank you! Have a blessed day, for you are a blessing to everyone
Sorry long comment!
I have to wake up at 4:30 am 😢 Monday to Friday for my secular job I’m a First Lady Pastors wife and is at my best interest to seek the lord early But have to be in the road at 5am to be at work at 6pm to come out at 3pm, drive a hour 1/2 getting home at 4:20 running to get dinner at the table by 6pm then get ready and on the road by 6:20 for service at 7pm to come home 9:30pm to do the same next day. So with that being said goals and routines are going to depend on lifestyle, mines is super busy and crazy there’s million things in between this that I didn’t mention, the best time for me, is in the way to work to listen to the word or a teaching and pray on the road and wen I get home between 4:20-5:30 I’ll pray some more
Is hard but God gives us strength, Pray for pastors this is not easy , and is so real Especially wen they have secular jobs and also running a church 🙏🙏🙏 and then Saturday and Sunday I can’t even contemplate to get up
At 4 or 5 so working on it maybe like you said. Something more realistic like 6 or 7 am ❤
"Your feelings are not a good indicator of what you should be doing." -- woo! I can take this and apply this to so many areas of my life. This is the first video I have ever seen of yours and I've subscribed!
This is the most helpful and realistic video I've seen in a long time. Without the Lord we are lost in all areas of life. He is our source of discipline.
@BlueCrush2 Your words are so true; I am writing them down. Thank you & God Bless!
So young, BUT SO WISE!! Thank you sweetie for this.. I'm 47 and I still struggle with discipline...
I don't have to feel like doing it, I just do it and then feel good later. Thank you Ashley
Hey Ashley! I’m a 15 year old girl and I’ve been reading my bible every day, about to hit 2 weeks straight! I tried waking up at 5:30 this morning to read my bible before looking at my phone, and it was SO HARD, but I did it, and it was AWESOME
I’ve needed this for a while. I usually pray a 1 minute basic prayer in the morning then go to my phone. I’m pretty lazy, and I’m so grateful I saw this. I know I needed to change it. I ordered the Bible that has the certain passages per day because I feel like my relationship with him is falling. I never knew what to read. I tried opening to a random page and 30 seconds later I go on my phone. I never feel like it but yet I’m here sad over loosing my relationship with him. So I’m gonna need a little work!!
Hey, how is your walk with Jesus going now?
I understand I’m scared I will fall away from him but he will never let go of us it’s so beautiful spending time with him you can find him when you are simply laughing and get reminded that he created laughter so you get happier , find him in the little things !
What's the update now?
You can’t “fall away from Him” He is with you always! I understand wanting to grow deeper in your relationship with Him though. Praying for you!
@@jenniferibarra7737 who Is the? The is who? They aren't the WHAT. :)
I woke up at 12:30pm yesterday. I was so tired of this so I prayed for self discipline, and today when I set my alarm for 7am, here I am awake and cooking breakfast. Then this video popped up on UA-cam 😯
I also have the habit of reading the bible daily, and when i dont feel like it and think" why should i do it today.... like, leave it for tomorrow" i think about how muxh time i spend on my other things and that i can read my bible.... it really is life changing
One thing I can say is that tip 2 is right. If you feel tired in the morning, by the time you get into your own schedule all of your tiredness will go away. So you have to move forward and do the things you want to do.
This video felt so different than usual discipline videos... in an amazing way! I love that you started with grace, literally made me cry a little. So often we "bully" ourselves into discipline. Having grace with ourselves is huge! This video really blessed me. Thank you for making it and sharing your love of Jesus with the world!
Girls, look into cycle synching. Our bodies are different EVERY single day. Usually before your period you will need extra calories and feel a bit more tired. After that, your energy goes back up. The cycle synching method (Alissa Vitti is great) changed my live, I can eat all I want throughout the month anddo the right excersices, I don't feel bad when I sleep a bit extra because I am nourishing my body. Great video!
I didn’t come to UA-cam to even look for videos on self-discipline (I came to listen to a song 😂). Then for whatever reason (I think we know Who) I clicked on your video. I definitely needed this encouragement! Thank you! 💜✝️
This world needs a TON OF DISCIPLINE!!!
AMEN!!!✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️
I am so encouraged by your videos. Three weeks left for my accounting module exam. I am a full time working mom which gives me a lot of excuses. Thank you for teaching me to pray for self-discipline. Please pray for me.
I desire to be more discipline in praying more, studying the Word of God More! I was stagnant for a period, but I don’t want to be lazy anymore! I need God so much 😢
Thanks so much, Ashley! I really needed this! I’m 17 and I have always been super disciplined but lately I’ve needed some motivation to keep me going. This did it! Thanks again! Love from California!
i am so so glad this helped 🤍
So glad this helped you! 🤍

*~Hot Tears of Jesus, YAHUSHUA in Heaven~*
[ Apostle/prophet]: I attempted to answer, instead tongues tore out of me! But they were different, urgent tongues; hot tears fell on my face. Then the RUACH ha KODESH [Holy Spirit ] showed me [Jesus] YAHUSHUA. He was knelt on the ground. He is facing Gabriel and he has his face covered with his hands and he is weeping. Sobbing so hard. He spoke and I can hear these words. The sobs tore out of me as if it was HE weeping through me. The tears I let dry on my face, so hot they were. Knowing somehow these weren't fleshly tears but tears coming from YAHUSHUA. I can still feel them on my face as though they were dried there and stayed.
These are the words the RUACH ha KODESH now puts back into my spirit for I am ordered to, "Tell them MY Child, tell them for ME." 1/24/98 given to this Child, Warrior, Bride of YAHUSHUA ha MASHIACH.
* * * * * * *
*Although I rejoice at coming to take MY Children out of this wicked* world, to carry MY Bride home in MY arms, I weep and I sob for I am torn in half. So many will be left, so many that call themselves MINE and yet MY Spirit is not in them. They will be left to suffer the wrath of Almighty God YAHUVEH! Tell them MY daughter, tell them for ME. Warn them. Many will listen and obey this prophecy. I weep for the churches that are overflowing and people stand in line to get in the churches.
*Yet MY RUACH ha KODESH (Holy Spirit) is not in these churches.*
These people call themselves mine, and they don't know ME. They are the church of the pretenders. Tell them MY child, tell them for ME. They will be left to suffer the wrath of Almighty God YAHUVEH if they don't REPENT! What a tragedy. Tell them MY child, tell them for ME [More].
''Return to Me'' ~~> Return to Holiness, Return to serve ME.
Bride toBe or Guests toBe, May you Continue ~~~~>

Heyy im 17 also and want t have that discipline wanna do it together girl ?
1. Continue my Bible/quality time in the creative artsy way that’s been life changing.
2. Reading/study Mindset renewing books for self growth and good parenting.
3. Money Management study and application.
4. Practicing bettering my weaknesses in business and social communication skills.
5. Serving at church, and community faith building activities I believe I’m supposed to be doing consistently.
Hey Ashley..U presented real facts that we Christians face..ur my motivation may the lord bless u abundantly nd use u for his glory❤
I hope there will be more Christian girls that show how to be in this world without being worldly. God bless you more
I almost didn't watch it because of the title. I have watched so many of this kind but now I am glad I watched the whole video and I feel it's exactly what I need. Why? It resonates with my beliefs. Thank you so much. Thanks for the free health habit tracker. God bless you!
This is such a wholesome video, Thanks Ashley! ❤
The timing of this is PERFECT for me as my word is DISCIPLINE for 2023! THank you Ashley!
Same tbh.not the same word but this timing was impeccable
@@bucketspree4952 whats your word for the year if you don't mind me asking Peyton?
I’m so happy that you said “don’t use your feelings” I’m happy with that because my feelings are getting in front of my dreams so I never do them.
❤️this is gonna help me so much I have been struggling to wake up and make my bed in the mornings, struggling to open my bible and read it! I need to do it to make myself feel accomplished and to draw closer to God!
I'm 43 and I'm learning so much in my Christian Walk. I listen to the Christian Talk Radio, The Word. The Bible is becoming so understanding and condensed that it's not complicating. FYI: I get up for work at 4:45a.m., and early for the weekends to make the most out of each day.
Three areas I want to grow in -
- Workout for at least 20 minutes 5/7 days a week
- Doing my Homework 30 minutes to an hour after getting home from school
- Going to bed at 9P.M. and waking up at 6A.M.
I'll want to waking up early every day and ready the bible daily, consistently, putting my mind and body in it
Hey, Ashley I been struggling in my walk for so long. I been in this path for 7 years and I still come out short. I will love my walk to be so strong and for me fill full. I stop going to my church because I can't walk up at 8:30 am service, I use to go to 11:30 service but is to full and I started getting anxiety will at church with so many people around. to make it short I love listening to you and I hope I can remember in human and this walk is hard but GOD will walk with you and give you Grace will you walk with him. I want to start new and get better everyday. thank you
you are so loved sister! 🤍
Self-discipline does not come from me it comes from God. Amen Needed that.
I absolutely loved this! I have been majorly struggling with discipline, and taking notes and discussing things on this video itself has allowed me to grow by 1% today. I pray to the Lord that he gives me discipline to open my Bible and intentionally listen to His word each day.
i am so so glad this video helped, Allison! He will help you. So excited for your journey with Him!
Thank u sis Ashley for u reminded me to be consistent
in my devotion early morning..
..by the grace of
God i'm 71yo.. God bless ur channel sis.
God doesn't exist
@@Sara91971 i mean...you did click on this video and replied to a comment. I pray you can encounter him in our life, Jesus loves you so much he was willing to die for yours sins so you may have eternal life
I just started reading the bible few days ago and presently I'm jobless due to my illness and anxiety disorder which doesn't allow me leave home, so I tend to wake up late then read my Bible, I believe only God can help me and turn things around for me...thank you for these videos,they are really helpful and God bless you
Jesus Christ loves you and knows you by your name. You're blessed and highly favored. You're a mighty woman of valor. May the LORD surprise you with healing and restoration in Jesus Christ's Name.
May all the illegitimate squatters leave your body ,soul, mind and spirit in the mighty name of Yeshua Son of the living God. Arise, shine for thy light has come.
Shalom
@@celak7482 Your healing and restoration draws near. Receive HIS Word by faith. Shalom
This is the first video I've seen by you, and it is definitely a timely message. I'm counting this a birthday present to me from the Lord! I so needed this today.
so thankful for your presence here in this community.
I found your channel in my worst situation. I think the first video I watched is the one about self-love. My heart is so broken and no family and friends can understand me in my situation, I know God is the only one who can heal me and He is guiding me in this healing process.
How you're doing now?
Hope you are ok. God bless you ❤
Thank you Ashley! It's great to listen about discipline from a Christian perspective 💖
“The best day to start is today” 😩 Yes ma’am
Thank you for this! As a single mother of a 2 year old and 17 year old…yep 14 years apart…it’s so hard to find time to spend with God and by myself if I’m not intentional forget it. Gotta have that grace for yourself!
Today is day 4 of waking up before work and getting on my exercise bike. I've been reading the Bible online at work. It helps boost me and I have more patience for my colleagues ❤
How are you able to wake up early?
I set 3 alarm ⏰ clocks. I go to bed earlier too 🙂
@@joybradford8206 thanks for your reply!
Great message. I love that you go over how our feelings are not what we should be letting direct us. I've been a Christian for over 10 years and I still don't feel like getting in the Word everyday but I do. I've exercised for just as long and I'm not always excited to get on that treadmill but guess what I do and BAM, I feel great afterwards. I love all the steps you shared.
I came across your video a couple days ago and marked it to watch later, but I guess the Lord had other plans because this vido kept showing up.
Your first point about leaning into grace really stood out to me. And something we all need to do daily.
Father Mike Schmitz said something in one of his sermons that really struck me which can be tied into discipline with reading the bible and spending time with the Lord. He said that every time you put off prayers, or reading the bible, or going to Mass; what you're really saying is no to the Lord. That whatever you are doing instead, you are telling God that it is more important than Him.
Those words Father Mike said really struck home for me. I never want to say no to God. I never want to disappoint Him. So every time I feel like I don't want to read my bible, or I don't have the energy to prayer or do my daily devotional, I remember those words and ask myself, do I really want to show God that this thing I would rather do is more important then Him. Those words have helped me become more disciplined in my faith.
Thank you SO MUCH for this!!! Discipline is something I’ve been struggling with probably since the summer of 2021. I have motivation to work out and read the Bible, but not to pray and wake up early. It’s been so hard for me to wake up early recently and I’ve been sleeping through every single one of my alarms. But thank God there’s grace!!!
So glad this encouraged you! 🤍
This video was super helpful thank you Ashley! You literally hit all of the goals I've been struggling to become more disciplined in: spending more time with God, working out and waking up early (and amongst other things lol). I've been struggling on how to make it all fit, especially in the mornings. But thank you for bringing the realistic pov to it, you can't do everything. Prioritizing is key! I want to wake up earlier so I can take more advantage of my days and ease more into my day and not feel rushed when I'm going to start work. Discipline was my word for 2023 and I'll definitely be carrying that into 2024.
Ashley , I just recently found your channel, however you have already helped me so much put God as my priority! Already you have inspired Me to KEEP GOING! I don’t always feel like putting God before my social media , or sleeping in. , or “me” time … yet you help remind me that TRULY I want Him more than those things! Other UA-camrs draw me toward myself and my own self discipline… but you help me run to the Father!!! Love you Ashley !! Thank you for helping me!
I’ve had aura migraines since 12 years old. Society has taught me to keep it on the down-low. The most debilitating part is not being able to see for awhile and it affecting my speech and clarity. I’m blessed to have discovered my triggers though and can avoid them without too much hastle. My triggers are fasting (even if I’m drinking plenty of water, stress, neck misalignment (so I do yoga to combat and professional massage when needed), too much sugar, and sometimes red wine. Hope this helps someone
i wish i could like this video more than once...because the Lord laid this on my heart last night and here you are explaining it so perfect to me and i didn't even go searching for it
Totally!!! Exactly what I needed and God provided through Ashley❤
What you shared in this video is so true.
Most of the time, the things of the spirit don't come with ease.
The enemy in a way knows the power in the things of the spirit, like praying, fasting, or getting up early to do the things that would help us get better in our spiritual life, so he puts up things that would stop us from doing them.
My take out here is that we must be intentional, pray to God for help, and take action.
Thank you so much, Ashley.
I must say I can relate to all that u hv said.I am in my discipline season I failed so many time I love the fact that u mentioned the Grace of God true his Grace is sufficient for all of us so even in my failed I still weak and try again I kept inviting God and reminding myself that I can still do it I am going strong now and it feels amazing reaching the goal they is soo much u mentioned honestly I felt like oh well I am not the only one going through this 🥰
I'm so thankful God led me to this message. This really helped me refocus on my priorities thank you!
God always finds a way to give me what I need to succeed when I need it. I’ve never seen one of your videos and this popped up on my feed. My prayer for the new year was for God to help me get back on track with life: my routines, my time management, my homeschooling routine EVERYTHING. I was going good for quite a bit however, I did what you said, “set 5 million alarms” so to speak. One big disruption later (I had to go to a wedding out of town that involved staying a night) and BOOM! What I was doing kinda fell apart and now I’m 💯 waking up at 8:30 and getting bummed! Thank you for having such wonderful God filled advice! And for reminding me of God’s grace and His desire for us to succeed in Him! My motivation for this year is Jeremiah 29:11 and your video fits right in! God bless!
This is helping me so much as a teen Christian! I really struggle with waking up and reading my bible, just spending more time with him in general! I have been wanting to start it, I will be like "Oh well I should start next week, or oh I'll start with the new month.' NO, I can start tomorrow! or even today! 🤍
Amen!
So needed to hear this!! There is a culture where we need to "feel" our feelings all the time rather then speaking to our Father .we need to understand what he wants for our life
New subscriber here - this truly blessed me! Thank you for this. I'm going to read my Bible after this video is over and try to wake up earlier though I can't lie it's difficult with my mom duties (I have a toddler), homeownership duties, wife duties, working FT, etc. It's tough but I trust in the Lord to help me be more disciplined. 🙌🏾
This was soooooo good Ashley! Love this!!! God's timing put you in my path. I've been so lazy in my faith. And I'm trying to get back on it. Glad He is speaking through YOU!
Im thankful do God that I’ve found your video. I need to lean into grace because every time I fail on doing something like wake up early, I keep beating myself up because I failed again
Personally i dont understand how people can go throught life without Jesus his presence is something you will never have enough of the joy and peace you feel being with Jesus nothing or no one in this world can give it. I love me some Jesus he all that i have in this evil world and i am not letting go of him❤❤❤❤
I loved the message. Short and feasible. Thank you Ashley. This is God talking to me on the 1st of the month Feb . Pray that I be able to fulfil the desires of my heart, and come closer to Jesus.
That’s how I feel about going to the gym. Sometimes I’ll listen to my feelings about the gym and then I’ll skip out on the gym for a week or more. That’s something I’m really trying to work on
Ohh, I really realize now, what did i do wrong.. Thank you, you helped me so much❤❤
so beyond thankful for how the Lord used this video to encourage you.
I was scrolling through UA-cam feed and your video popped up. The Lord is good like that ...I know I needed to hear this. Just the title caught my attention.
What a motivation. God help us to decipline ourselves with your help.
Thank you
Miss Ashley, thankyou for your wise words. I am 66 and I learned a valuable lesson here. Thank you. Blessing on you and yours.
“I know that you don’t love me because of my performance” … my soul shook 🥹♥️✝️
Such an awesome video! Thanks, Ashley! I'm watching this while on the treadmill right now! Getting better at doing the things I need to get done! You're awesome and God bless you! ❤️🙏
so proud of you 🥰
🤍
❤️
Thank you for making this.... Beautiful points to ponder. What strikes me most is leaning on grace and asking God for help. So far I have been struggling with just thinking it's me who needs to do it. Thank you for spelling out that clearly for us... I will put this little things starting with waking up
Love love love seeing a woman in this space, especially a Christian. Thank you!!!!
Thank you so much for this. I've been struggling to discipline myself
girl! how come you always show up when i'm in need of this type of advice? thank you so much for letting God use you this way to inspire others and help them improve. keep it up!
Girl you’re preaching !!! I really needed this !
I would like more discipline with waking up early, making time for God, budgeting, working out, spending time with my son and the people I love and setting myself up for success. Lord I ask you come into my life and help give me daily guidance with taking care of these responsibilities. Love your daughter B!
I feel this video came to me for a reason ❤ thank you for this content!
so so glad you found this video helpful!
1% compound effect, and not relying on your feelings are very good ideas. And praying before a workout! Thank you, Ashley.
watching your videos gives me so much joy! ❤it also always tends to fill my heart with a lot of hope, that God too wants to help me more. Thanks Ashley
Taking our feelings out. That's good. 😮
you're the best. I truly appreciate your kind words. I also just am thankful for YOU being here in this community.
You are so right, it is easy to quickly get out of the routine… great video Ashley! 👏🏼
so glad to have you here girl🤍
1. Lean into Grace
2. Don't act by your feelings, feelings come and go, you need to act before feelings come. You will feel better
3. Ask God for help
4. Do it for _the_ you five years from now
5. Habit tracker helps
6. Set realistic goals, if you try everything at once you won't be able to do anything really.
_Need to listen this again_ 💪🏻
Love this honesty and grace filled advice thank you ❤
you're so dearly loved. I am so thankful for you being here.
I've been struggling a lot with managing well my time, reading the bible, praying basically my time management was the worst that I always find myself always late in everything and I would always go to sleep not content at all sooo feel so blessed to ❤ to see this video thank you so much Ash❤
Wow! Literally just bumped into this and it's apt and timely. Just subscribed.
Thanks Ashley!
It’s crazy how god puts the right videos in front of you when you REALLY need it!
