In Galatians 6:9, Paul counsels us to “not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.” If we haven’t gotten to the reaping, if we haven’t got to the reward, if we haven’t experienced the payoff, one of two things is likely the case: either it’s not yet due season/the proper time, or we have lost heart/given up.
In today’s episode, we identify ten Bible Characters who almost missed out on the reaping: Abraham, Job, Moses, Gideon, Elijah, Jonah, Jeremiah, John the Baptist, Peter, and John Mark. Scriptures referenced include Hebrews 11; Genesis 17:17; Genesis 18:10-12; Job 7:16; Job 2:9; Exodus 32:32; 1 Kings 19; Jonah 1; Jonah 4; Jeremiah 20:9; Matthew 11:11; and Mark 14:66-72.
