THE VIRTUE OF ENDURANCE


"Behold we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the Patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord, that the Lord is very pitiful.(James 5:11)

Patience is one virtue that has long been deleted from the memory of many people including believers.
Men and women are impatient at home with their husbands, children, workers, brothers, sisters, drivers and pastors etc. They are impatient with everyone. They cannot endure any adverse conditions, whatever they need must be instantly provided. We are in the age of "instants". Instant indomie, instant coffee, instant starch and so on and so forth. They are even impatient and angry with the Almighty God if He wastes time in answering their prayers. Some even pack their Bibles and turn to a negative lifestyle if God does not answer their prayers. They think they can boss God around.

Are you such a person? Are you impatient? Only those who wait upon God shall renew their strength. Understand that some prayer answers may be automatic, some may require a process. Some healings require a process of progression.

If you do not take your time to wait, you will spoil your miracle God is incubating for you. Are you spoiling your miracles as a result of impatience? Many are so impatient that when provoked, they can say anything. Please count ten before you speak if not, you may speak regrettable words. I cannot imagine someone who cannot be impatient with a Governor being the end of the service.

Some are running away from putting their seed upon the altar. God will reward you according to what you sow. Growth from God is gradual. Why must you walk out of God's presence, what if He walks out of you in your time of need? The way you regard God is the way He will treat you, He will also make you His number one if you make Him your number one. Why are you always complaining? Be patient. Talking too much leads to anointing leakage: pray more, be patient and God will answer you.

                                                       PRAYER
Father help me develop the virtue of patience in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

He Wants You Vibrant And Strong

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth (3 John 1:2). One of the ways to improve your health is making sure you have good enough rest for your physical body, and good sleep has a role to play in this. It’s recommended to sleep for a certain number of hours every day. Although some people say, "There’re days that I sleep throughout; and then other days, I just stayed awake." That isn’t a normal lifestyle. If you’re that way, always cutting back on sleep, then you’ve got to reorder your lifestyle. You’re not supposed to go on for several days without sleep, hoping to make up by sleeping eventually for twenty-four hours. That’s not going to work. Over time, chronic insomnia could drastically affect your health. God made day and night on purpose. Night has a cooling effect on the natural body. The biological effect of night is to cause you to sleep, to create the instincts of sleep, yet some people will still
