Heb. 6:12: "That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises."

V. 13: "For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,"

V. 14: "Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee."

V. 15: "And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise."

We won't obtain the promise (as Heb. 6:15 states) unless we by *FAITH AND PATIENCE*, endure. We must endure the storm of seemingly-hopelessness: when you cry out to GOD and feel nothing in return. When you pray and pray and pray and it feels as though nothing is happening. Hebrews 6:12 states: "…Be not slothful…" You see, it's slothful to not endure. It's slothful to discontinue praying to GOD because of the difficulty you're faced with. Work at your faith and endure to see the promises.
