(Luke 8:40-55)

Patience is called a human virtue but in reality it’s a characteristic of God’s character inherited to human beings.

Patience is not permissiveness, patience is the grace that corrects instead of destroying. God is a patience Father.

Matthew 26

  1. And suddenly, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
  2. But Jesus said to him, “Put your sword in its place, for all who take the sword will perish by the sword.
  3. Or do you think that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He will provide Me with more than twelve legions of angels?

Mateo 26

  1. Pero uno de los que estaban con Jesús, extendiendo la mano, sacó su espada, e hiriendo a un siervo del sumo sacerdote, le quitó la oreja.
  2. Entonces Jesús le dijo: Vuelve tu espada a su lugar; porque todos los que tomen espada, a espada perecerán.
  3. ¿Acaso piensas que no puedo ahora orar a mi Padre, y que él no me daría más de doce legiones de ángeles?

-Jesús have patience with Peter (a son) Correction.

-Jesús have patience with servant of the high pries (unbelievable) gave him a chance to believe.

Patience is a violent action against Satan:

Philippians 4

  1. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;
  2. and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Filipenses 4

  1. Por nada estéis afanosos, sino sean conocidas vuestras peticiones delante de Dios en toda oración y ruego, con acción de gracias.
  2. Y la paz de Dios, que sobrepasa todo entendimiento, guardará vuestros corazones y vuestros pensamientos en Cristo Jesús.

Patience is a combination of peace and science.

Peace: In the Bible peace come from been one with God. (Verse 7: the peace of God). The more you are with God, the less pressure you feel from the world.

Science: in the Bible means knowledge: knowledge of who God is and who you are; knowledge deactivates Satan plans agains you.

Patience: God in your life allowing you to know more of what He knows. (Example: money been hold in the bank)

Luke 8

40 So it was, when Jesus returned, that the multitude welcomed Him, for they were all waiting for Him.

  1. And behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged Him to come to his house,
  2. for he had an only daughter about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as He went, the multitudes thronged Him.
  3. Now a woman, having a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her livelihood on physicians and could not be healed by any,
  4. came from behind and touched the border of His garment. And immediately her flow of blood stopped.
  5. And Jesus said, “Who touched Me?”

When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes throng and press You, and You say, ‘Who touched Me?’ ”

  1. But Jesus said, “Somebody touched Me, for I perceived power going out from Me.” 47 Now when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before Him, she declared to Him in the presence of all the people the reason she had touched Him and how she was healed immediately.
  1. And He said to her, “Daughter, be of good cheer; your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
  2. While He was still speaking, someone came from the ruler of the synagogue’s house, saying to him, “Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble the Teacher.”
  3. But when Jesus heard it, He answered him, saying, “Do not be afraid; only believe, and she will be made well.”
  4. When He came into the house, He permitted no one to go in except Peter, James, and John, and the father and mother of the girl.
  5. Now all wept and mourned for her; but He said, “Do not weep; she is not dead, but sleeping.”
  6. And they ridiculed Him, knowing that she was dead.
  7. But He put them all outside, took her by the hand and called, saying, “Little girl, arise.”
  8. Then her spirit returned, and she arose immediately. And He commanded that she be given something to eat.

Lucas 8:

  1. Cuando volvió Jesús, le recibió la multitud con gozo; porque todos le esperaban.
  2. Entonces vino un varón llamado Jairo, que era principal de la sinagoga, y postrándose a los pies de Jesús, le rogaba que entrase en su casa;
  3. porque tenía una hija única, como de doce años, que se estaba muriendo. Y mientras iba, la multitud le oprimía.
  4. Pero una mujer que padecía de flujo de sangre desde hacía doce años, y que había gastado en médicos todo cuanto tenía, y por ninguno había podido ser curada,
  5. se le acercó por detrás y tocó el borde de su manto; y al instante se detuvo el flujo de su sangre.
  6. Entonces Jesús dijo: ¿Quién es el que me ha tocado? Y negando todos, dijo Pedro y los que con él estaban: Maestro, la multitud te aprieta y oprime, y dices: ¿Quién es el que me ha tocado?
  7. Pero Jesús dijo: Alguien me ha tocado; porque yo he conocido que ha salido poder de mí.
  8. Entonces, cuando la mujer vio que no había quedado oculta, vino temblando, y postrándose a sus pies, le declaró delante de todo el pueblo por qué causa le había tocado, y cómo al instante había sido sanada.
  9. Y él le dijo: Hija, tu fe te ha salvado; ve en paz.
  10. Estaba hablando aún, cuando vino uno de casa del principal de la sinagoga a decirle: Tu hija ha muerto; no molestes más al Maestro.
  11. Oyéndolo Jesús, le respondió: No temas; cree solamente, y será salva.
  12. Entrando en la casa, no dejó entrar a nadie consigo, sino a Pedro, a Jacobo, a Juan, y al padre y a la madre de la niña.
  1. Y lloraban todos y hacían lamentación por ella. Pero él dijo: No lloréis; no está muerta, sino que duerme.
  2. Y se burlaban de él, sabiendo que estaba muerta.
  3. Mas él, tomándola de la mano, clamó diciendo: Muchacha, levántate.
  4. Entonces su espíritu volvió, e inmediatamente se levantó; y él mandó que se le diese de comer.
