Be full of Persevering Faith
Focus on the end product of what God is doing with people’s lives. Gal. 6:9” We will reap if we faint not.”
Unchangeable faith.
Look and Ask for the Goodness of God
We need to show the positive things in the will of God not negative appearances. Good will show a spiritual good from any bad situation. Psalm 27:13 I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
Keep Yourself Unspotted from the World
Keep away from the world. The trap Esau fell into for a meal. Matt. 13:38 The field is the world, and the good seed represents the people of the Kingdom. The weeds are the people who belong to the evil one.
No leader can minister to others if the world is warring inside of him. No energy left.
Pray Constantly
Converse with God. Not only for myself but for others. Luke 18:1 Now He (Jesus)was telling them a parable to show at all times that they ought to pray and not to lose heart.
Receive the Mercy of God
Paul said,”Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not faint, but we have renounced the hidden things because of shame. 2 cor. 4:1.
We must understand the process of confession of sin, total repentance and faith in God’s cleansing power.
Consider the Sufferings of Jesus
Our sufferings are nothing compared to His. Heb. 12:3 For consider him who has endured such hostility of sinners against himself, so that you may not grow weary and faint in your minds.
The more we remember His sufferings the more we will be strong in our times of testing.
Allow the Daily Renewal of the Inner Man
We need the Holy Spirit to be active. We need His spirit to touch our spirit to create new life within us. 2 Cor. 4:16 Therefore we do not faint, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day.
