Patience Is Bitter, But It’s Fruit Is Sweet
Text for Today: Philip. 4:4-9 “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.” (vs.6).
Learning patience can be a difficult experience, considering what we go through daily, but once conquered, you will find life is easier. You must learn to be patient, because sometimes, you have to go through the worst to get the best.
Patience is the calm acceptance that things can happen in a different order than the one you have in your mind. One moment of patience may ward off great disaster, while one moment of impatience may ruin a whole life. Whoever cannot wait for his appointed time may waste away.
It takes God to release what you have asked for, not you looking for short-cuts to speed it up. I want you to know that short-cuts, are capable of cutting one’s destiny short.
Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success. As a child of God, it takes patience to prove your trust in God.
The devil will try to dissuade you with negative thoughts and different options just to derail you from the plan of God. Whenever he brings those evil thoughts, just remind him of the promises of God concerning you.
He has taken this virtue away from some people thereby robbing them of their miracles. Don’t be in a haste, if not, you may make avoidable mistakes that you will later regret.
The thought of God towards you is for good and not of evil, to give you hope and an enviable destiny. You must patiently wait for that expected end which God has promised to give you.
Patience is a slow process, but quitting wont speed it up, rather a double loss. Be wise!
You are a Champion!
