Hebrews 10:36
Hebrews 10:36
For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
Patience is a vital aspect of the Christian life, especially when we are awaiting the fulfillment of God’s promises. This verse reminds us that patience is not a passive waiting but a necessary trait as we continue to do God’s will. Through patience, we demonstrate our trust in God’s timing and our faith in His promises. We are called to remain steadfast in obedience, even when the fulfillment of promises seems distant or uncertain. Trusting God means recognizing that He knows the best time for us to receive what He has promised. Patience, therefore, is not just about waiting but about remaining faithful and diligent in the process. Worship, in this sense, becomes an expression of trust, where we choose to wait with expectancy, knowing that God will fulfill His promises in due season. Through patience, we align ourselves with God’s will and are rewarded with His faithfulness.
2 Timothy 4:7
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
Matthew 10:22
And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
Romans 5:3
And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
James 5:11
Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
