What Good Does Impatience Do?

What good does impatience do for us beside send us around the same mountain (as the children) time after time after time.

Like any other children, defying their parents, we as the children of YAH, get a little too big for our britches. That old ugly head of impatience creeps in and we want to do our own thing the way we want to: negating the responsibilities given to us by Yashuah, as children of the Most High. And then we have the nerves to expect to be blessed in abundance without any repercussion).

 We make the decision, in our tiny little mind, that  our level of learning is at its peak and we don’t need any more wisdom, knowledge or understanding through the teaching, guidance and or chastisement we continue to get, from the Holy Spirit, every day. And we developed this know it all attitude, when it comes to the WORD and decide to use bits and pieces of it to govern our life according to how we are feeling at the moment (well, you can’t do that). We must maintain a constant progression in our faith; believing that the WORD is true and that it requires no help from us (and our impatient remedies) but that we follow it for a rewarding life.(Deuteronomy 4:2 2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish (take away) ought (anything: the moral responsibility) from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.)  And there should be no other gospel. (Galatians 1:6-10 6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— 7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse! 10 Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.

One sure way of encouraging self patience is connecting to Yashuah and staying connected: READ THE WORD. There are many forms of translation, out there, to help us understand what is written, is being said ( I still prefer King James Version; it gives me a challenge) and what is expected of us; especially in these days and this time. Yet many of us have not read it for our self but have listen, intensely to what a pastor, preacher or minister has said and took it for the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. (I am not saying what they say is not truth, because if YAH is speaking through them, (know this by the Word, Bible) it is true) (Psalm 119:160 – Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever). But Yashuah said for all who want to know the truth to try Him and His WORD; believing His promises are true (Psalm 145:13-14 – 13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The LORD is faithful to all his promises and loving toward all he has made. 14 The LORD upholds all those who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down.) Be proactive in your own salvation. Don’t allow some one else to spoon feed you that which you should be seeking yourself and is capable of finding, because you don’t want to take the time to go after it ourselves: The Truth.  But, as stated, we become so impatient coupled with this know it all attitude; this, let me run my own life; I can handle it, it becomes a volatile part of our life that causes more problems (trials, troubles and tribulations) than need be.

The moral of this opinion, is for us not to be like the son, in the parable of the inheritance, in Luke 15. He was not patient enough to wait for his preparation (through the training and guidance of his father) to be completed. But he took all of his inheritance (that which he was going to get at his father’s death), went out in the world, unprepared, and squandered it through ignorance. So, you see one of our biggest problems, is impatience and we think we know it all. There is always someout there that knows a little bit more than you: And YHWH knows a lot more than all of us. It should be clear that when we are seeking answers, for our life, we must have patience and wait on YHWH, through Yashuah or suffer the consequences. God’s got it no worry no fear.
