Developing Self-Control: The Power of Discipline - Hiram Roche #186
About this episode
In this transformative episode of Focus on Greatness, Hiram Roche opens up about a powerful lesson revealed during his own wilderness season—the struggle with self-control. But this isn’t just about behavior correction. It’s about spiritual mastery.
Self-control is not about restriction—it’s about rulership. Not weakness, but wisdom. As we walk through biblical truths and practical steps, you'll discover how self-control is one of the most vital, yet often overlooked, fruits of the Spirit—especially for men called to lead in their homes, communities, and faith.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why your wilderness season is revealing what still needs to be ruled
- How Jesus modeled self-control when tempted
- What the Bible teaches about developing mastery over your thoughts, desires, and actions
- 5 practical ways to grow in Spirit-led discipline
- Key areas where men need self-control: speech, anger, lust, thoughts, finances, and more
