0705 真信心懂得等候
当你看到自己的局限时，就看不到我的应许。那时，你会任由对失败的恐惧束缚你，拦阻你与我一同迈步向前。现在是时候把你的心与我的心紧紧相连，并以我的话语为力量勇往直前。那些意图毁灭你的烈焰，将被你信心的盾牌熄灭；那些企图削弱你的控告之声，将被我的低语微声细语所平息。信心是必胜的盾牌。
真正的信心从不急躁，它懂得等候。它完全信靠我和我的智慧。许多人信靠我的能力，却很少有人愿意等候，并信靠我的智慧。我有一个超越你理解的时间和计划，每一个延迟都有它的原因。信靠我的能力和智慧，你就永不会跌倒，也不会失望。要耐心等候，深信我掌管一切，你的品格必能得到磨炼。我的回应永远不会太迟，所以不要担心会错过神为你命定的机会。有我与你同在，你怎会失败呢？
务必要带着坚定的信心祈求，毫不怀疑你自己一定会得到回应。因为一个犹豫不决的人，这一分钟相信，下一分钟又怀疑。优柔寡断会让你如同海中的狂风巨浪，翻腾起伏，摇摆不定；一会儿高高在上，一会儿跌落谷底。——雅各书 1:6
0705 True faith knows how to wait.
When you see your limitations, you are blinded to my promises. It is then that you allow the fear of failure to cripple you and prevent you from moving out with me. It is time to fasten your heart to mine and move forward with my Word as your strength. Flames meant to destroy you are quenched by your shield of faith. Voices of accusation attempting to weaken you are silenced by my whisper. Faith is a shield of certain victory.
True faith is never in a hurry. It knows how to wait. It trusts wholly in me and in my wisdom. Many trust in my power, but few wait to trust in my wisdom. I have a time and a plan that is beyond you, a reason for every delay. Trust in my power and in my wisdom, and you will never stumble or be disappointed. Wait patiently, fully convinced that I am in control, and your character will be refined. My answers never come too late, so don’t worry about missing your God-ordained opportunities. How can you ever fail when I am with you?
Make sure you ask empowered by confident faith without doubting that you will receive. For the ambivalent person believes one minute and doubts the next. Being undecided makes you become like the rough seas driven and tossed by the wind. You’re up one minute and tossed down the next. –JAMES 1:6
