Today I would like to talk about a tough topic when it comes to a persons walk with God: waiting. There are moments in my life where I cannot move any further in a matter. Even if I could intervene, it would be the wrong course of action.<\/p>\n

Let us read a passage:<\/p>\n

Romans 5:1-5<\/strong><\/p>\n

[1<\/strong>]Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
\n[2<\/strong>] By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
\n[3<\/strong>] And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
\n[4<\/strong>] And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
\n[5<\/strong>] 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.<\/p>\n

There are three key points that I would like to make here.<\/p>\n

First of all, I cannot be justified by faith unless I actually use it. Why would it be spoken in the word of God that you have access to something if you did not need to know that you had to go and access it?<\/p>\n

Secondly, Faith without works in my life is dead; I can’t sit back and just wait for it all to happen for me. I have to be faithful through my experiences and believe that God is going to help me with the long-term things as I obey him through the short term! I stand in my faith not literally, but through endurance of grace I make it through! I also rejoice! I can come to God’s house and praise the Lord! I can come and not be fearful of what anyone would direct otherwise! God would never have you be in a place where you could not step out through obedience to grow!<\/p>\n

Finally, remember that which is in you and around you! The love of God (as given by the Holy Ghost) is always in you, always ready for you to be able to step out and make a difference each day. You might be in a place where that is frowned upon, but just hang in there! God will make a way for your ministry to grow! Remember who it is that you worship, and who it is that you serve! If it is anything other than God, than you cannot survive long-term! Tribulation was never meant to be endured without God!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
