? PATIENCE ? 1
" We can rejoice too, when we run into problems and trials for we know that they are good for us—they help us learn to be patient "
Romans 5.3
Even though I have quoted it before, I appreciate the following ditty because there is so much truth in it,...
" It's the little things that bother us and put us on the rack, you can sit upon a mountain but you can't sit on a tack "
It's amazing how uptight and impatient I/we can become with the little annoyances of everyday life.
Sometimes it seems these upset us more than big issues.
Remember, though, that the things that bug us don't cause our impatience, they just trigger it !
And that's what Jehovah God wants to get us to face and fix.
He wants to fix us from the inside out so that we will learn both patience and every other grace.
Keep in mind, though, if you want to experience trials and tribulation, pray for patience !
This is because we only learn patience by experiencing the things that upset and bug us.
Growth is usually slow.
So, while learning to be patient with others,  don't forget, to learn to be patient with yourself

WHAT  IS  THE  WAR  OF  ARMAGEDDON ?

Who are the participants? What will be the outcome of this war? When will this war occur? Why is this information important for each of us?
Simply stated, THE WAR OF ARMAGEDDON is the name given to "the war of the great day of God the Almighty" in which "the kings of the entire inhabited earth" gather to wage war against Jehovah God. Revelation 16:14, 16; 19:11-21.
Jesus Christ, and his 144,000 co-rulers, will receive the authority to wield "an iron rod" of destruction against all enemies of God's Kingdom. Revelation 2: 26,27. See also Ezekiel 38:15, Revelation 16:16.
The war of Armageddon will be the finale of the great tribulation. At that time, Jesus will take on an added task. In addition to being the Judge of "all the nations" he will also become the EXECUTIONER of the nations.....specifically, of all the people whom he had earlier judged as "goats." SEE Matthew 25:32,33. Yes, from "kings" to "slaves"....will be destroyed. SEE Revelation 19:15,18; Matthew 25:46.
Here is a sobering fact! The majority of people alive on earth today are steadfastly clinging to false religion. Many of these believe Jesus is coming to take them to Heaven....when the fact is clear....he is coming to be their executioner. They would know all that if they would just stop and read their Bibles.
Loyal servants of Jehovah God, and his Son, Christ Jesus will live through this time, and become part of the "Great Crowd" and will be in line to receive the blessing of everlasting life on a paradise earth. SEE Revelation 7:9,14.
We all have a most important decision to make.....Will we listen to God, or will we listen to mortal man, who cannot even save himself ?   We all have free a will....   let us use it wisely.

Never drift away.—Heb. 2:1.
 
Meditating on spiritual things will help a person grow to Christian maturity. (Heb. 5:14; 6:1) A person who spends little time thinking about Jehovah and Jesus will not maintain strong faith. Such a person is in danger of drifting away or drawing away from the truth. (Heb. 3:12) Jesus warned that if we do not hear, or accept, God’s Word “with a fine and good heart,” we will not “retain” it. Instead, we could easily be “carried away by anxieties, riches, and pleasures of this life, . . . and bring nothing to maturity.” (Luke 8:14, 15) Therefore, let us continue to ponder over God’s Word. This will motivate us to reflect Jehovah’s glory, qualities, and personality as revealed in the Bible. (2 Cor. 3:18) What more could we ask for? Growing in the knowledge of God and being allowed to reflect his glory are wonderful privileges, a never-ending process as we continue to learn how to imitate our loving heavenly Father.—Eccl. 3:11. w15 10/15 4:13, 14

There will be no dew or rain except by my word !—1 Ki. 17:1.
In Israel’s early history, people had the opportunity to see and hear about how God acted in Israel’s behalf. Jehovah miraculously delivered his people out of Egypt, and then king after king fell before them. (Josh. 9:3, 9, 10) Israel’s opponents refused to acknowledge that God was fighting for Israel, and that led to their defeat. Later, wicked King Ahab had every opportunity to see God’s hand in events. Ahab saw fire come down from heaven when Elijah prayed for his offering to be consumed. Elijah then indicated that Jehovah would bring the drought they were experiencing to an end, telling Ahab: “Go down so that the downpour may not detain you!” (1 Ki. 18:22-45) Ahab saw all of this happen but still refused to acknowledge that it was a mighty display of God’s power. This and other examples teach us an important lesson—we must recognize Jehovah’s hand when it is in action. w15 10/15 1:4, 5

I well know, O Jehovah, that man’s way does not belong to him. It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step.—Jer. 10:23.
From the Bible we learn that humans are not created with the right of self-determination, to be independent of God, and that ignoring this fundamental truth will have sad consequences. This is critically important to our welfare. Only by recognizing GodÂ’s authority can we enjoy peace and harmony. How loving of Jehovah that he chooses to reveal this important truth! A loving father is deeply concerned about the future of his children, wanting them to have a real and meaningful purpose in life. Regrettably, most people are in the dark about the future, or they spend their life pursuing goals that bring no lasting benefits. (Ps. 90:10) As GodÂ’s children, we feel truly loved because Jehovah has promised us a wonderful future. That gives genuine meaning and purpose to our life. w15 9/15 4:10, 11

[There is] a time to laugh . . . and a time to dance.—Eccl. 3:4.
Not every pastime is beneficial, relaxing, or refreshing; nor is it good to engage in recreation too much or too often. How can our conscience help us to enjoy upbuilding recreation and benefit from it? The Scriptures warn against certain behavior identified as “the works of the flesh.” These works include “sexual immorality, uncleanness, brazen conduct, idolatry, spiritism, hostility, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, dissensions, divisions, sects, envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and things like these.” Paul wrote that “those who practice such things will not inherit God’s Kingdom.” (Gal. 5:19-21) Accordingly, we can ask ourselves: ‘Does my conscience move me to shun sports that are aggressive, competitive, nationalistic, or violent? Does my inner voice warn me when I am tempted to view a film that features pornographic scenes or one that condones immorality, drunkenness, or spiritism?’ w15 9/15 2:11, 12

[Noah] proved himself faultless among his contemporaries.—Gen. 6:9.
Noah lived in an evil world but had no desire to make its inhabitants his close friends. He did not seek the companionship of ungodly people. He and the seven members of his family occupied themselves with the doing of God-given work, which included building an ark. Meanwhile, Noah was also “a preacher of righteousness.” (2 Pet. 2:5) Noah’s preaching, his work on the ark, and his association with his family kept him busy doing good things that pleased God. As a result, Noah and his immediate family survived the Flood. We should be grateful to them because all of us today are the descendants of those who served Jehovah—faithful Noah, Noah’s wife, his sons, and their wives. Similarly, loyal and obedient first-century Christians kept themselves separate from ungodly people and survived the destruction of Jerusalem and the Jewish system of things in 70 C.E.—Luke 21:20-22. w15 8/15 4:17, 18
