The word “tithe” literally means tenth or 10%. Tithing, or giving ten percent of your income, isn’t merely giving something to God. It’s giving back what was his to begin with. All that we have, or hope to have, comes from him. The Bible says that tithing is a reminder that God is the supplier of everything. It teaches us to always put God first in our lives.

WHEN IS WAITING PATIENTLY AN ACT OF FAITH?
“Be patient, my friends, until the Lord comes back. Remember how patient farmers are as they wait for their valuable crops to mature and ripen. They also wait patiently for the spring and fall rains to do their work. You too must be patient! Don’t give up, because the Lord could arrive at any time! And don’t complain – especially against each other – or God will judge you!
Remember that the real Judge is standing at the door! Another example of patience in the face of suffering is God’s prophets who spoke God’s truth in hard times. Today, we honor them for their patient endurance when they suffered unjustly. Then remember the example of Job. Job continued to patiently trust God while enduring great pain. But we know how God fulfilled his purpose for Job and that his
plan for Job ended in good because the Lord always treats us with tender compassion and merciful kindness.” James 5:7-11
WHEN IS WAITING PATIENTLY AN ACT OF FAITH?
1. WHEN CIRCUMSTANCES ARE UNCONTROLLABLE
“Be patient, my friends, until the Lord comes back. Remember how patient farmers are as they wait for their valuable crops to mature and ripen. They also wait patiently for the spring and fall rains to do their work. You too must be patient! Don’t give up, because the Lord could arrive at any time!”
James 5:7-8
2. WHEN THE TRUTH IS UNPOPULAR
“Another example of patience in the face of suffering is God’s prophets who spoke God’s truth in hard times. Today, we honor them for their patient endurance when they suffered
unjustly.” James 5:10-11a
“Don't grumble about each other, my brothers and sisters, or God will judge you. Remember, the great Judge is coming. He is standing at the door!”
James 5:9 (NLT)
3. WHEN PAIN IS UNBEARABLE & UNEXPLAINABLE
“Then remember the example of Job. Job continued to patiently trust God while enduring great pain. But we know how God fulfilled his purpose for Job and that his plan for Job ended in good because the Lord always treats us with tender compassion and merciful kindness.” James 5:11
“Let us not get tired of doing what is right, for after a while we will reap a harvest of blessing IF we don't get discouraged and give up.” Galatians 6:9 (LB)
WHAT SHOULD I REMEMBER WHILE I’M WAITING?
1. REMEMBER GOD IS IN CONTROL!
“Be patient, my friends, until the Lord comes back.” James 5:7
“Be patient and stand firm, because the Lord's coming is near.” James 5:8
“Don’t complain...the Judge is ready to come!” James 5:9
2. REMEMBER GOD REWARDS PATIENCE
“We consider blessed those who have persevered.” James 5:11 (NIV)
3. REMEMBER THIS IS NOT THE END OF THE STORY!
“We know how God fulfilled his purpose for Job and that his plan for Job ended in good because the Lord always treats us with tender compassion and merciful kindness.” James 5:11b
“‘I know what I am planning for you’ says the Lord. ‘I have goodplans for you, not plans to hurt you. I’ll give you hope and a good future!’”
Jeremiah 29:11 (NCV)
HOW DO I TRUST GOD DURING A DELAY?
1.LIKE FARMERS, WAIT EXPECTANTLY!
“...I wait expectantly, trusting God to help, for He has promised.”
Psalm 130:5 (LB)
2. LIKE THE PROPHETS, WAIT WITHOUT COMPLAINING!
“It is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.” Lamentations 3:26
3. LIKE JOB, WAIT CONFIDENTLY!
“If a man dies, can he come back to life? I will wait for better times; I will wait till this time of trouble is ended.” Job 14:14 (TEV)
“Those who wait on the Lord will find new strength. They will fly high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint!” Isaiah 40:31 (NLT)
