Through Faith and Patience
Today's Scripture “...imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised.” (Hebrews 6:12, NIV) Today's Word from Joel and Victoria 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! A Prayer for Today Father, today I declare that I trust You. I trust Your faithfulness. I trust Your goodness. I know that You are working things out in my favor and in Your timing. I declare that through faith and patience I will inherit every promise You have for me in Jesus’ name. Amen!

"Thy Will be done!" It takes a lot of patience to wait and put our wants and desires aside, waiting for things to happen, as they should, rather than how I would have then be or try to make them happen.
When I look outside of myself of myself, I lose that faith and patience, and through my God, I am whole and complete.
