Because You Kept the Word of My Patience
If there was ever a time for the Church to do this it is now. To continue to persevere in spite of suffering, some will not persevere and be lost. Christians must go on to maturity and sanctification! The road is long and it takes time. All need to go on with endurance until the race is completed. Revelation and vision are important to complete the journey. Even the strongest Christians can become discouraged at times, but we must not become anxious or bitter when things do not change right away. Sometimes we think God has forgotten about us, but wait in expectant faith. Wait on His help and trust in Him. We must turn to the Lord first when we need help and we must hold on to the vision that God has given us. God gives us all we need to endure! We must take God’s way; Christ did this and was made perfect through sufferings. We are saved by grace, but we must endure suffering, we cannot take a shortcut, we must learn obedience through perseverance. When one trusts in Christ by faith they receive the Holy Spirit and each one who perseveres will receive the Crown of Life. This takes patience, which is produced through faith. Those who overcome are those who wait faithfully and patiently upon God, receive the nature of Christ, and keep His commands. The Holy Spirit confirms the truth within. We must bow and stay bowed before God. A person must be born again before they see the Spirit of God in them and before they see the Kingdom of God. Jesus is the only way; we must obey Him and keep His Word. The Holy Spirit only enters by faith. Are you keeping Christ’s command to persevere?
