Again a Call for Endurance

Scripture: Revelations 14: [12] This calls for patient endurance on the part of the saints who obey God’s commandments and remain faithful to Jesus.

Observation: Just the chapter before God calls for patient endurance from His saints a virtue I lack. Patience is one of the things that seem hard for me, always wanting things done right away in my timing. I give up so easily but I’m called to endure and keep God’s commandments and to be faithful to Jesus. And how am I to be faithful to my Lord by standing up for Him in this world when others deny Him, to endure any persecution without giving up my hope in Christ.

Application: I know God’s commandments He has written them down and made them clear, so there is no reason not to obey. Each day I need to make a commitment to be faithful to my Lord so that others around me know where I stand and may see Jesus through me. I need to be patient I have a whole eternity to be with Him.

Prayer: Dear Lord give me wisdom and strength to be the man you desire me to be. Give me peace and patience to endure this life until it is time to come home and be with you.
