“So that you will not be [spiritually] sluggish, but [will instead be] imitators of those who through faith [lean on God with absolute trust and confidence in Him and in His power] and by patient endurance [even when suffering] are [now] inheriting the promises” Hebrews 6:12, Amplified.
My youngest daughter can be very impatient. When she wants something, she will say, “Mommy, I want it right now!” I just laugh, and say no baby girl; you’re going to have to wait. She hates waiting at this stage of her life. Now, my oldest daughter, when told to wait on something will say, okay, Mom. She may not want to wait, but she understands that I love her, and she has experienced waiting and receiving what I’ve promised her.
With this in mind, we can understand this scripture. We are told to imitate or follow those who through faith and patience, inherit the promises of God. Maybe there are people in your life who have received and are enjoying what you are believing God for. As you grow in your relationship with the Father, you will begin to see how deeply God loves you, and you will have experience with waiting and receiving what He’s promised. Just as my youngest daughter will soon learn to imitate my oldest daughter if she wants to receive, you will have to imitate those older seasoned daughters of God who through faith and patience receive God’s promises.
Prayer: Father God, thank you for giving me understanding. Help me not take matters into my own hands through impatience. Help me to have the right attitude while I wait for you to do what you promised. Help me learn how to trust you and wait. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

A year ago GOD showed me something then as time passed YOU revealed more things to me but I’m still feeling just pieces of this elephant…the full vision has not yet manifested but I am endeavoring to praise YOU in the waiting. I am determined that YOU will be proud of my conduct even though I don’t understand much of this time, I have no one to give me insight into this guy but YOU. Help me hear YOUR VOICE saying go down this , it is of righteousness. In GOD I trust!
In the name of Jesus….Amen
