TODAY’S SCRIPTURE: Psalm 49-51
TEXT: And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness. – 2 Peter 1:5-6.
MESSAGE: Patience is a necessary virtue if we must actualize God’s purpose for our lives; but sad to say several believers have not come to understand the importance of patience in their walk with God.
Many think patience is a wasting time, a time of delay or means slow accomplishment so they end up complaining in that period, thereby giving the devil room to afflict them. Due to ignorance of the virtue of patience, several training period of God to mature His people have been translated to wasting time or affliction because the people lack an understanding of divine timing.
The bible says in Hebrews 6:12; “That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises”. There is a divine timing for everything in life. “To everything in life, there is a time and season Eccl. 3:1. Babes in the kingdom may not understand this, but Sons do. If the children of Israel understood timing the thirty years of affliction would have been avoided.
They would have only exercised patience 400 years which is divine timing and kicked the enemy out after that.
PRAYER: My Father! My Father! As I begin to pray now, give me an understanding of divine timing, so that patience can have its work in me, in Jesus name.
