If you "let patience complete her work in you, you will be mature and fulfilled, and want for nothing," James 1:4 KJV and here's why. Time and patience are always at odds, if you are a time conscious person then, patience will be much harder to acquire. Patience moves you outside of the human time frame, and into My time. In order for you to fulfill your purpose there are multitudes of events and changes that must take place. The alignment of your character with Mine is a requirement for every kingdom person.
Patience is needed for you to experience the potters wheel, in order to be
shaped and molded and fashioned in your inner man, by My Holy Spirit. How many
years and events does it take to knock all the stubbornness out of you? Or To
get you to give up your agenda, and conform to Mine? Or To stop sinning? Or To
rejoice when others are blessed? Or To forgive 70 x 7? How long does it take for
you to keep your mouth shut when every thing in you wants to say it! It take
patience to see your old Man die and your new man take over. "This does not mean
you are to be lazy, but diligent followers of them who through faith and
patience inherit the promises." Hebrews 6:12 KJV Patience is active faith that
can be seen clearly by the worry wart, and many times causes conflict between
the two.
True patients moves you deep into the throne room where you know that all
things are well in control, and fitting with My master plan. It is a place where
you are able to see the end from the beginning, and you are already at rest with
end result long before it happens. "For you are saved by hope: but hope that is
seen is not hope: for if you can see it, why would you need to hope for it? [25]
But if you hope for that which you do not see in the natural, then with patience
you wait for it ." Romans 8:24-25 KJV That patience then become a central part
of faith! For example patiently waiting in faith, never doubting, for a loved
ones salvation. When patience has completed her perfect work, your son,
daughter, spouse, will be saved.
Patience is a central ingredient of love because, "Love endures long and is
patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not
boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily." 1 Corinthians 13:4
AMP The full work of patience, is patience in all and with all. In all
situations, and with all people, with yourself, and with Me. When you are living
in full patience you will want for nothing because you will living the true
kingdom life, while still walking on earth. Time will have been defeated and you
will have entered into My rest. "There remaineth therefore a rest to the people
of God. [10] For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his
own works, as God did from his. [11] So starting today, trust Me like never
before, and labour, to enter into that rest, by fighting impatience, lest you
fall like the millions of fearful impatience ones in unbelief." Hebrews 4:9-11
KJV
"Do
not, therefore become impatience, and fling away your fearless confidence, for
it carries a great and glorious compensation of reward. [36] For you have need
of steadfast patience and endurance, so that you may perform and fully
accomplish My will, and thus receive and carry away and enjoy to the full of
what I promised. [37] For in a little while (a very little while), I will come
and I will not delay." Hebrews 10:35-37
