Patience is the strongest kind of faith in the Christian life. Put your faith in God and His Word. “Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God” (Rom 10:17). Patience is developed by means of your spiritual life. God will put you through chaotic times to teach you to use His problem-solving devices. Patience is an amazingly powerful character asset that frees you from emotional sins that will override your thinking. “Be joyful in hope and patient in affliction” (Rom 12:12). Patience is required in suffering and adversity so we don’t get ahead of God, so we wait on His solutions. “Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him.” (Ps 37:7). One of the reasons God allows adversity in our life is so that through our use of patience we can glorify Him by using the faith-rest drill. “There is no temptation overtaken you except what is common to mankind and God is faithful. He will not let you be tested beyond what you can bear, but when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so you can endure it” (1 Cor 10:13). Impatience is an acquired flaw.
