"That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises."Hebrews 6:12
The promise is still in effect! With all the drama of life, the mountains, the valley's, the dry places and the flooded places we sometimes find ourselves in a place of discontentment. There we are asking God, when is this going to end? You feel weighted down with all the issues of life, the test, the trials, the spiritual warfare!
I know, I know, I've been through it and periodically go through it, it is the testing of our faith. James said it best, "My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 3)Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience." James1:2-3
God is working patience, strength and filling us with more of His Spirit so that He gets us closer to the promise. We must persevere so that we become perfect lacking nothing, taking a page from the saints mentioned in Hebrews 11 and those eluded to in Hebrews 6, through all your difficulties God is getting the mess out and filling you with more of his goodness, taking your weaknesses and giving you His strength so that you can patiently endure and see the manifestation of the promise in your life!
Hold on my sister, The Promise is still in effect!
