Persevering in Faith | Jason Staggers

We tend to have in our minds the best-case scenario of how life is going to play out. But many of God’s greatest promises are only fulfilled after we’ve patiently waited, persevered in faith, and refused to give up.  Hebrews 6:10–15 (ESV) 10 For God is not unjust so as to overlook your work and the love that you have shown for his name in serving the saints, as you still do. 11 And we desire each one of you to show the same earnestness to have the full assurance of hope until the end, 12 so that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises. 13 For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he had no one greater by whom to swear, he swore by himself, 14 saying, “Surely I will bless you and multiply you.” 15 And thus Abraham, having patiently waited, obtained the promise.
