In our culture today,
people are used to getting things right away. We’ve been programmed for
immediacy. People don’t like to wait. But the scripture says, “It’s through
faith and patience that we inherit God’s promises.” Sometimes, it’s easy
for people to have faith. We declare, “God, I believe I’m going to
accomplish my dreams. God, I believe I’m going to overcome this obstacle.”
But, it gets harder when we have to walk in patience. When you pray, can
you say, “God, I not only believe for big things, but I trust Your timing.
God, I’m not going to get discouraged if it doesn’t happen immediately. I’m
not going to give up because it’s taken a week, a month or five years. I
know the set time is already in my future, so I’m going to wait with faith
and patience because I know that it’s on the way.”
Remember, through faith and
patience we inherit His promises. Trust His Word, trust His timing and
trust that your answer is on its way!
