Faith is persistence. When people embark on a race and soon give up that is the extent that their faith can carry them. In God you cannot do without faith. Your destiny must not be thrown into a trash can. That is why you cannot afford to just give up this race of life. You must win. Sometimes God is not moved by how long but how firm you have decided to stand to the end.
Just as we read about Abraham, God’s word refers to him as a man who through faith and patience inherited the promise. Though it was taking time but he did not allow the situation to affect his faith. He knew that in a twinkling of an eye, God is able to fulfill His promises. He also knew God was only testing his ability to persist (Deuteronomy 8:2, 3, 13).
Decide to provoke God’s hand by your persistence. Make your conclusion based on the faithfulness of God. Staggered not (Romans 4:20). Patiently wait and your case will become a miracle. Men shall share your testimony everywhere and every one that hears it shall laugh with you (Genesis 21:6). Peace.
PRAYER: Lord, strengthen me to keep my faith to the end.
“IT IS ONLY THOSE WHO CAN PERSIST THAT WILL PREVAIL”
