PATIENCE IS THE 4th FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT OF GOD.
AS WE LOOK AT THE LINEUP LOVE IS FIRST WE MUST LEARN THE LOVE OF GOD FIRST – HE LOVED US- SO MUCH HE GAVE HIS ONLY SON AS A HOLY SACRIFICE FOR US FOR THE REDEMPTION OF OUR SINS SO WE COULD HAVE ETERNAL LIFE WITH THE FATHER SON AND HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD IN HEAVEN.
SECOND IS JOY– YOU HAVE TO HAVE LOVE FIRST THEN THE JOY OF THE LORD WILL COME THE LOVE OF GOD IN EACH ONE OF US,
THIRD IS PEACE– PEACE COMES WHEN YOU EXPERIENCE THE LOVE OF GOD IT BRINGS JOY OF THE LORD JESUS AND THEN PEACE SETTLES IN OUR HEARTS.
WHEN LOVE, JOY AND PEACE ARE MOVING IN OUR HEARTS, MIND AND SOULS IT PRODUCES THE PATIENCE OF GOD TO MANIFEST ITSELF IN A BELIEVERS HEART.
Col 1:9-14
Preeminence of Christ
9 For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10 that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; 12 giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. 13 He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.
