Why does God want patience worked in our spirit?

 Can we administer patience to another believer?

No we cannot!

Patience is part of the fruit of the Spirit, worked into us by the Holy Spirit. 

We can however, remind others when patience is  needed.

James 1:4

My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.

But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete lacking nothing.


If I am understanding James, we choose to LET patience have its perfect work.  Something that we can allow to happen. Get self out of the way.

We must choose patience in order to grow in Christ Jesus our Lord. 

Do you want to mature? then allow patience to have its perfect work in your walk in the Lord.

Beloved, there is a work of the Holy Spirit going on in us daily.   He is working the very character of Jesus in us.  Little by little, as we grow we learn more and more.


People that are impulsive, jump ahead followed by their emotions, and they will pay for it down the road.

Impulsive people are ruled by the flesh and their emotions taking control.  This is not good. Because these believers are pushed to make quick wrong decisions. Satan pushes the Holy Spirit gently leads.

Flashing thoughts need to be submitted to the Holy Spirit. 

Is it self or the devil pushing you to make a wrong move, one that will cost you down the road?

Beloved, learn to take time and pray about any situation you are facing. Learn to wait for your answer from the Lord.  There will be peace that follows.

James 1:5-8

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given him.

But let him ask in faith, with no doubting for he who doubts is like a wave of he sea driven and tossed by the wind.

For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

Wisdom from God will remind you to be patient, wait to hear from God after you pray. 

God's wisdom will always teach you to be patient. Relax and praise the Lord while you wait.


Remember the story of Joseph, He had to wait for God's timing, after his trial, then he was promoted and used of God.

Beloved, LET the Holy Spirit work patience in you so your actions and faith will glorify God and you will become more effective in God's kingdom and according to God's word, you will lack nothing.


God bless your day

Jesus loves you

Love in Jesus

Joy

DOES IT MATTER WHO PREACHES THE GOSPEL, AS LONG AS THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED?

 G O S P E L= GOD'S OWN SON PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE. This is the true gospel,  the good news!! What are we to conclude about this matter? Paul makes it clear, that whoever preaches Christ and the gospel, it doesn't matter, as long as the Gospel gets preached. Philippians 1:15-16 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill.  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains, but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Gospel. What then? Only that in everyway, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes and will rejoice. Beloved, there are all kinds of preachers out there, but their motives are not our business. Those that are preaching for all the wrong reasons, could later repent, and start preaching for the right reasons.  We have seen this through the years. We are to listen for the truth of God's word. I h...

SCIENCE AND THE BIBLE.

Science proves that God's word has it right for sustaining our life. Science says, that we need   four basic elements to sustain life and survive. We need air, water, food, and light. We have it all in Jesus, if we have received Him as our Lord. Science is right. It has proven God's word is true. Acts 17:25 (Paul was speaking about the Unknown God to the men in Athens) Nor is He worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, Since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. We need air in order to breathe. When we receive Jesus we have His breath, breathing through our lungs. When we breathe, we speak the name of God. Just speaking His name, we inhale YAH and exhale WEH.   YHWH means breath of life. Our Jewish brothers and sisters know the name of God means breath of God. This is an interesting fact that we believers need to know. We also need light. John 8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, "I am the light of the world; He who follows Me shall not walk...

JESUS IS NOT A GLORIFIED BUTLER, HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

SOME BELIEVERS THINK THAT JESUS IS A GLORIFIED BUTLER.  Whatever they ask for they will have, whether it is right or wrong. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!  YOU ARE NOT TO COMMAND HIM,  YOU ARE TO ASK HIM, HONOR HIM, AND RESPECT HIM AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.  I have heard some believers young in their faith and understanding, say that they have prayed for such a thing and God will give it to them. They are trusting in their faith, not their faith in God. (Works of the flesh, which is witchcraft) Witchcraft is attempting to manipulate your environment or circumstances. (SELF) Works of the flesh. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. (1Samuel 15:23) Galatians 5;19-20 NOW THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions , jealousies, outburst of wrath , selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, and revelries, ...
