When we rest in God, as we discussed last week, patience becomes a necessary virtue. This is because God’s times are not our times, and His ways are not our ways. God’s measure of time is also not like ours, and His seasons are different from ours (Isaiah 55:8-9).
We have to be patiently expectant as we wait for God’s promises to manifest! We have to wait in faith!
Are you going through hard times, even though you trust in God?
Are you doing all the right things; praying, believing, and living holy?
Does it seem as if help is not forthcoming? Are you nearing despair?
If your answer to any of these questions is ‘Yes’, then the Lord has a Word for you this week:
Rejoice through your difficulties; for patience is wrought through tough times (James 1:2-3)
Keep on praying to God in faith, and let your good works and holy living mirror your faith (1 Thess. 5:17; James 2:17)
Your help and breakthrough is near; do not lose hope because of this brief difficult season (Psalms 30:5 & 11; Isaiah 59:1).
God has spoken some wonderful words about those who fear and obey Him; He has promised divine health, hope, joy, peace, and prosperity. To receive all these, we have to stay the course as we expect His blessings.
Do not give up now; the heroes of faith before you never gave up, even when the odds seemed so heavily stacked against them. Jesus always shows up on time, so remain patiently expectant!

Lesson of the Week

1. God loves and desires to bless you (Jeremiah 31:3-4).
2. God will do what He promised (Isaiah 55:11-12).
The Creator of the Universe loved us so much He sent His only Son to die for us, more so when we did not yet know Him. He then promised us blessings on earth and in heaven, if we stay true to Him! We did not earn this love; it was freely given so none of us could ever boast.
He who created the worlds by the power of His Word has once again sent that Word out, promising extraordinary blessings and grace upon us; we just have to believe without wavering.
No matter what our situation, we are to pray to Jesus about it, remain positive and patiently expectant, and watch Him do what He does best: “Make Things Happen”.
Do not lose hope; keep your eyes constantly on Jesus, and STAY THE COURSE! 
The Lord God, who created all things loves you and desires to give you the best; receive these blessings graciously and give Him and His Christ all the Glory.
Blessings from Him who desires to give you all things!
Have an enduring week, and keep the faith.
