24/7 DOXA Content, 28th May-OVERCOMING IMPATIENCE
_____________________________________
FOCAL TEXT: Hebrews 10 vs 36
►► “For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.”~KJV | ____________________________________
FAVOURED greetings, Cherished one. One great virtue that moves with faith is patience. It was through faith and patience that the elders obtained the promises (Hebrews 6:12). We’re living in fast paced world where people operate on quick schemes; Many want everything fast and quick. *And the devil has designed so many “get rich or make it schemes” just to serve as baits to those who refuse to be patient in life.* In life, you need to understand the work of patience in contributing to success.
The word “patience” is translated as “endurance”. And it means steadfast remaining under for support. It also refers to the ability to walk in sustaining perseverance. *Patience is what tells you not to give up or in. Yes, it is ability to hold on and not lose your confidence in God and His ability.* It is the ability to endure or wait on the promises of God in faith and hope without wavering or doubting. Patience is the ability to stay and still trust in God despite the challenges. It is when you don’t scheme out your own plans to contradict God’s.
James says _”Knowing this, that the trying of your faith works patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that you may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing (James 1:3-4)._ Therefore, you have to overcome impatience; the desire to be restless and intolerant to delays and disappointments. Impatience is sometimes driven by unhealthy competition with others, the stage they are and what they have. Impatience is what made Sarah give Hagar to Abraham; which led to the birth of Ishmael. *You must be patient and trust in the word of God. Stay resolute and be unmoved.* For if you do not give up, in due season, you will reap the rewards of your patience. The rich grace of our Lord Jesus Christ abounds towards you always.
