Patient, The Hallmark




And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
- Hebrews 6:15

"After he had patiently endured" this referring to Abraham, we know that Isaac did not happened immediately, not a year after the promise, not two or five, not ten or twenty, but twenty-five (25) solid years. To many this is just a story, but it is not.

Everything stated in the Holy Bible is true and they are for our example, 1 Corinthians 10:11.
Today, with the rise of technology and fast food companies, people think there is no need to wait that long for anything anymore, if God is not responding fast enough... just Google it and seek alternatives.
This has led to many self afflicted calamities, situations and challenges that many are confronted with today. Abraham and Sarah tried to help themselves out, the result was Ishmael, the world have not recovered from that error yet. So imagine what seeking alternatives outside God can cause for the generations unborn.

It pays to wait on Him, He alone knows the end from the beginning.
When many do not get the promise they were promised, then they turned from following after righteousness, in Jeremiah 18:9-10 the Bible speaking said,
"And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;
If it do evil in my sight, THAT IT OBEY NOT MY VOICE, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them." this also refers to individuals.

From the above scripture we see that though God has promised us, we must remain in righteousness, "IF" we intend to enjoy the manifestations thereof. Many run with promises, lived like the devil and wonder why nothing happened; then they blame God for not keeping His WORD.
God is ever faithful, its you and I that need to examine ourselves "if" we were ever in faith on the subject matter, 2 Corinthians 13:5.

Ones we are in faith with Him, God’s word will always come through, and you shall laugh (have your Isaac) at last.

The peace of God be with you, in Jesus name!

Jesus is Lord!

SETTLED SOUL

  Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2 The state of one's mind [ soul ] determines his/her place in destiny. In life people are forced to bow to pair pressure or any other kind of pressure when they don't have a stable mind, or let's say the person have identity issue.  When Satan tempted Christ Jesus on His way from the wilderness after forty days prayer and fasting, what was the first question he asked Him? "if thou be the Son of God" if Jesus had had identity issue, he would have fallen for temptation in the view to show off, as a result lost His place and purpose. Knowing fully well that God had said, "... Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." Lk. 3:22. Before embarking on the wilderness expenditure.  When you know who you are in the Word of God and are established in it; you wouldn't bow to the pressure of the world, because you see things differently....

PROSPER

 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2. The mind consist of one's will, intellect and emotions; which is the soul of man. At salvation the spirit of man; which is also referred to as the heart gets quickened or made alive (But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible,... ) 1 Peter 3:4  The heart is saved, the soul is not. You [we] have a duty to save our soul; and it has to be done through studying the word and meditating upon the word, that's when the transformation of mind/soul begins. Romans 12:2  "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your MIND, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." As you spend more time in the Word of God; like a mirror you beginning to see your true identity from it. This is the reason we are admonished to study the Word of God. Satan knows this, so he tries...

BE WISE.

  Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is. Ephesians 5:17 God, at different times and in so many ways have tried and still trying to let us know what His will for us is (He never gives up on us) . Same way the devil is endeavouring to distract us from God's purpose for our life through various medium. There is a saying, when purpose of a thing is not known, the abuse of the thing is certain. Using a toddler for an example. He/she have no clue what a remote control to a television is, if they found one. They can drop it a bowl of water if available, and still feels happy about it; simply because they have no idea what it is meant for. But as they grow up their perspective change. Same way, God want us to grow to understand our purpose and His plans for our lives. Unfortunately, Satan have ways of distracting people from the medium made available by God for man to identify or discover his purpose on earth. In other to keep people (grown-ups) in per...
