The capacity to accept or tolerate delays, problems or suffering without becoming frustrated or anxious. The key words here being accept and tolerate. Life is full of challenges and obstacles that are bound to delay us in our journey to where we want to go. What we must remember is that a delay is temporary not permanent. A delay is an opportunity to re-evaluate ourselves and analyse where we are and what we still require to get to our intended destination. There are places you are destined to go, dreams with your names on it and areas in the atmosphere that you have been called to go and receive but the only way you can receive it is by displaying patience. Patience is a virtue that we must accept, understand and master so that we do not become disheartened when things do not go the way we had planned. Instead let us be sure that the plan that God has for us is bigger than any plan we may have for ourselves. As he told us in the word that he has a plan to prosper us. To give us a future and hope. You may feel as if you are doing everything in your power to make a difference and to take you closer to your hearts desire and because of this you start to think that it’s not working because you can’t see any changes. Blessed are those who believe although they have not seen. Romans 8:25 reads “But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience”. The dreams that you can’t go a day without thinking about can become your reality because you have already been highly favoured but do not turn around at the point of your breakthrough because you lack patience. Tolerating hardship and affliction can only prepare you to be able to handle the magnitude of the blessings that will locate you through supplication and faith.
There is nothing in this life worth having that will come easy. We have to be built into a special character that can withstand the test of time to endure affliction and surely be ready for the promise that has our name on it. We can’t wake up with patience. It doesn’t work like that. When asking for patience we will be given opportunities to show how patient we can be. This may come through frustrating work colleagues, sitting in traffic, setbacks in businesses & pure difficulty in day to day life. But this does not mean that we have been forsaken. It simply means that as we display the gift of patience and the spirit of faith, our story is bound to change as long as you truly believe. Faith the same size as a mustard seed is all that you need for wonders to take place in your life. Seed, patience, harvest. Through planting the seeds of faith in our life we allow our roots to be uplifted and grow into our special harvest. As the seed grows from the very beginning, it is only you that knows the work that is taking place below the surface. People can only see what you show them above the surface. Take pride in your patience and know that you will flourish once your faith has been tested and your endurance is fully developed leading you to be perfect in understanding needing nothing. You are PLANTED not BURIED. Under does not mean it’s over. As pressure creates diamonds. Change your hearts perspective and do not quit. Do not feel entitled but be diligent in your efforts for your purity will not go unnoticed.
No matter what your talent may be, if it is not time for you to have your breakthrough it is simply not your time. As hard as that may be to process, we cannot see what God has in line for us but we can be sure that it will most definitely give us peace of heart and peace of mind. Are you willing to wait on the promise of God or are you after instant gratification that cannot be sustained ? Your impulsiveness to experience short term pleasure and satisfaction right now as opposed to a promise that could last a lifetime is what will ultimately create a longer delay. God has a strategy to give you what is yours. When you try to create your own solution you will only sabotage the blessing that already has your title on it. There is someone reading this that has been working non stop towards a promise that they desire with every fibre of their body. I’m telling you that the only thing you require for your promise to become your reality is PATIENCE. The only thing you need to receive your hearts desire is PATIENCE. You do not want to get to a place in life where your character can not maintain what it is you thought you were ready for. Are you willing to pay the price of time for your dreams ? Patience is free. All you have to do is practice. The manner in which you wait will ultimately determine how long you wait. Positivity and confidence in waiting will lead to your glory as you know you are waiting for the promise that can not be compared to a man made blessing as it has been ordained by the Almighty.
Exodus 14:14 reads “The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent”. Many of us are fighting battles that are not our battle to fight. God is in control at all times. Never forget. As we humble ourselves we will surely be exalted. Mastering faith and patience is a process. It will not come overnight. It will require practice and time. Let us find joy in the process as we wait confidently knowing that we will be satisfied in the end. God will provide. The business that will provide for your children’s children. The job that will give you peace. The career that will display your talents to the world. The family that your heart has been craving. He will do exceedingly and abundantly more than you can imagine. Do you trust him ? Are you willing to wait ? In everything we do may the Lord go before us and may we never lack in wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Through this strange period of time that we are currently in may our loved ones be kept safe and may God continue to guide every single one of us. It’s not by luck or coincidence that you are here today but simply by his grace. Use the time wisely to plan your next steps for whenever peace is restored. Trust the process. You won’t regret it
Stay Safe
Thanks For Your Time
