Faith and patience
"That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises" (Hebrews 6:12 KJV). There are many times, along with many hours, that many of us spend in prayer. Then comes the time when we can get hindered by unanswered prayers, which causes us to stop praying for that specific thing or someone. Sometimes we do not see immediate change to the problem or to our loved one's life that we have been praying about. So, we quit asking God in prayer. Pray is a spiritual battle, and having a prayer life is a spiritual discipline. Many times we have to fight ourselves in order to pray. A lot of times many don't even breakthrough themselves in prayer. So, we have countries and possibly thousands of churches that have given up on prayer. If we are not asking, how do we expect to receive? We need patience, Godly patience. Then, we have the devil who tries to hinder us, deprive us, and conquer us in our prayers, hoping it would lead us up to total loss of faith. Seeking the Lord is not to be taken lightly. God has given us His very Word. We will receive an inheritance, which is His promise if we continue to endure. God does not ignore our labor. He sees everything you and I do for His will. He asked that we continue diligently and seek Him out. "... for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him" (Hebrews 11:6 KJV). God bless you. Amen
