The text highlights...

For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.

Hosea 5:13-15 (KJV) When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah saw his wound, then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet could he not heal you, nor cure you of your wound. 14 For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him. 15 I will go and return to my place, till they...

Ephesians 4 calls Christians to maintain the unity of the Spirit with humility, patience, and love. Dave Jenkins explains why that unity rests on the truth of the gospel, how to distinguish essential doctrines from secondary disagreements and matters of Christian liberty, and how to pursue peace without compromising Scripture.

David closes Psalm 27 with a call to wait on the Lord while enemies and unanswered cries are still part of his prayer.

This week on Wheat Among the Tares, we highlight the life and testimony of George Muller, the founder of a series of orphanages in Bristol, England in the 1800's. The uniqueness of this ministry was (and is) how God made manifest, through prayer and patience, his answers in meeting the needs of so many orphans through the years, and proving through this man and ministry that the Lord hears and ans...

MAIN POINT: Do not fear, for I am with you. I will bless you Genesis 26:24

This message continues the exposition of Romans 9:22-23, showing that God's patience with vessels of wrath prepared for destruction has a greater purpose: to make known the riches of His glory to vessels of mercy, whom He has prepared beforehand for glory.

The saints in Revelation 7 were greatly troubled by their suffering. They give us lessons to learn that we can apply to our troubles in this our age.
