READ: James 5:7-11
Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husband-man waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.
James 5:7
Today, there is a lot of talk about the Faith Movement. Faith is so important in serving God. Without faith you cannot achieve anything and you cannot accomplish much for God. Without faith there would be no miracles, there would be no preaching and there would be no power.
That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
Hebrews 6:12
Remember that faith works with patience and through patience. Faith without patience will not achieve much.
Impatient people will never live to see the great things that God has for them. As you mature in God, He will give you the grace to develop patience.
Knowing this that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
James 1:3-4
Every minister must learn to suppress his restlessness in life and ministry. Every minister must learn to suppress annoyance when confronted with delay.
God is doing great things and He will surely bring to pass all His promises in your life.
For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
2 Corinthians 1:20
Be faithful unto death! Close the door to satan! Protect yourself from anything that will remove you from this great ministry. Faithfulness is a good thing! Loyalty is a good thing!
