Patience

Hello everyone,

How are you doing on this day? I hope well and bubbling in the Lord. We thank God for the hope we have in Him… and how we can with patience wait for it. Romans 8v25 tells us that:

Primary Text

“But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.” Romans 8v25 (KJV)

“But if we hope for what is still unseen by us, we wait for it with patience and composure.” Romans 8v25 (AMP)

“But if we look forward to something we don’t yet have, we must wait patiently and confidently.)” Romans 8v25 (NLT)

We are hoping for something that we haven’t seen yet… but we have the Word of God, which gives us hope. John 14v1-3 (NLT) says “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in Me. There is more than enough room in My Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with Me where I am.” Through the Spirit of God we can continue to abound, overflow and bubble over with hope. We know too that God cannot lie, and what He says He will do, He will do. Like Abraham who patiently waited for the promise of God, let us also patiently wait for the Lord. The Lord Jesus has gone to prepare a place for us in His Father’s house, that where He is, we also may be. Even concerning other things we wait on the Lord for here on earth, let us continue to hold onto His promises, for He is faithful who promised. Psalm 27v14 (TLB) says “Don’t be impatient. Wait for the Lord, and He will come and save you! Be brave, stouthearted, and courageous. Yes, wait and He will help you.”

Prayer

Father, we thank You so much for Your Word. We pray that Thou O God of our hope will fill us with all joy and peace in believing, through the experience of our faith, that by the power of the Holy Spirit, we may abound and be overflowing and bubbling over with hope in Jesus name, amen.
