Kumuyi Task Youths, Students On Discipline, Transformation

Pastor WF Kumuyi

The general superintendent (GS) of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry and Deeper Life Bible Church (worldwide), Pastor William F. Kumuyi, has called on youths and students across the country to live a life of discipline.

Kumuyi, who stated this in Abuja at the weekend during his visit to students of the Deeper Life High School, said the transformation of the students is the end result of the whole process of going through the four walls of school.

According to him, “Discipline is the pivot of the life of a student” adding that, no matter how studious you are if you don’t have discipline, nothing will come out and you are not going to achieve anything in life. But with discipline you will get to the top of the mountain.

The renowned man of God who was in Abuja since on Thursday, for series of programmes in the church – Workers Strategy Congress for the middle-Belt, FCT Great Miracle Revival Service and his regular Monday Bible Study –  described the acronym meaning of a student as being studious, teachable, unique, disciplines, enlightened, noteworthy and transformed.

The pastor of the largest single congregation church in Africa, told the students that big things start in small ways and admonished them know that God is preparing them for great future and a place in the leadership of the country.

Spelling the word student with seven letter words, he said, it represents completeness and being a student make the student complete. He said, “Those young people that never go to school, they will never be complete. You cannot be anything significant in life without being a student.

He said, “Discipline is the scale that strikes a balance, it is the fulcrum and the pivot of the student life. No matter how studious you are if you don’t have discipline, nothing will come out and without discipline one is not going to make anything in life.”

“I am disciplined, I know that the class is to state at this time, I don’t need anybody to remind me, I don’t need anybody to come to the hotel to shout me out. Discipline comes from the inside and so when some others who are not disciplined are doing something that is not in my subject are, I look the other way.

“Immorality, does not relate to my subject area, boy friend, girl friend, exam malpractice are not in my subject areas. But when it comes to being upright, righteous and living the life that is pleasing to God, that is when I talk. And when the teacher is taking, the student won’t be talking at the same time, because I am a disciplined student.”

On the transformation of the student, Pastor Kumuyi said, “How do people come into the school as a rough and raw material and become transformed as a medical doctor, engineer and leader in the society. That is the end result of the whole process.

“If you are studious, teachable, unique, disciplined, enlightened and noteworthy, and you are not transformed, it means you wasted your life in school as a student.”
