“By your patience possess your souls.” Luke 21:19 

God always equips us for the times in which we live. We sometimes wonder how our forefathers survived the times in which they lived.  It's really difficult to compare one era to another. Everyone has to learn, adapt, and overcome in their unique circumstances. One thing is certain, as God told Ruth during a crisis in her times, "You have come to the kingdom for such a time as this.”

Here is the verse from other Bibles:

NIV: "Stand firm, and you will win life." 
NASB: "By your endurance you will gain your lives." 
NLT: "By standing firm, you will win your souls." 

If we've been in touch with the Lord during this season, we understand that Romans 8:28 has been in effect.

What is patience?

Patience is not simply waiting, it is waiting while under development by the Lord. 

Patience is honoring God’s process. Patience is waiting like a seed that has been planted. It doesn’t seem like anything is going on with that seed, but we know the process for seed germination is the beginning of producing the designed outcome.
