For You Have Need Of Patience

DAY 3 OF 3

Hope Maketh Not Ashamed.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭5:5‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Let the hope of God fill your heart. Let God shed His love within the borders of your heart. Choose to hope in Him. Choose to wait on Him. 

“And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭5:5‬ ‭NLT‬‬. His Hope will not lead to disappointment. 

Choose to love God beyond the “stuff” that you’re waiting on. Choose to honor God beyond the platform. Choose to surrender to God in every area of your life. You may have been hoping for a promise to come to pass. You may have been hoping for a vision to come to fruition. You may have been hoping for something in your life to manifest. Choose to shift your attention and redirect your focus —choose to trust God. 

God is greater than the promotion. God is greater than the increase. God is greater than the “thing” or promise that you’re longing for. Choose to trust in God. Trust in the God who is Lord of the harvest. Trust in the One who redeems time. Trust in the God who controls time. Trust in the Lord. Let God lead your heart. Let God redirect your heart. He will never leave you nor forsake you. 

Let God freely flow and function in every area of your life. Choose to trust in Him. He will not make you ashamed. Honor God and don’t idolize the platform. Choose to trust in God and not in the strength of your riches, influence or character. Choose to rely upon God and He will lead and direct your path. 

Trust God. Trust His timing. His timing is perfect. You are in need of patience. “But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.” James‬ ‭1:4‬ ‭KJV‬‬. Patience matures you. Patience develops you. Let God sharpen you. Let God remove the things that are not like Him. Let God prune your heart. Let God mature your heart. James‬ ‭4:3‬ ‭KJV‬‬ declares, “Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.”

Maybe God was preparing you. Maybe God was strengthening you. Maybe God was preparing the platform. Maybe God was preparing the promise. Choose to surrender to His way of doing things. Truly, His way is perfect. His timing is perfect.Choose to trust God. Have patience. Wait on God.
