Ephesians (KJV)
Eph 4:1 I therefore, the prisoner of
the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith
ye are called,
Eph 4:2 With all lowliness and
meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;
Eph 4:3 Endeavoring to keep the unity
of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Eph 4:4 There is one body, and one
Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one
baptism,
Eph 4:6 One God and Father of all,
who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
Eph 4:7 But unto every one of us is
given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
Eph 4:8 Wherefore he saith, When he
ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto
men.
Eph 4:9 (Now that he ascended, what
is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the
earth?
Eph 4:10 He that descended is the
same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill
all things.)
Bible Meanings
- Longsuffering - v2
With longsuffering; bearing much and long with the infirmities of
each other; without being easily provoked to anger by any ill usage;
and not immediately meditating and seeking revenge for every affront
given, or injury done; and so to walk, is to walk worthy of the
grace of calling, or agreeable to it, to God that calls by his
grace, who is longsuffering both with wicked men, and with his own
people.

Isa 55:11
So shall my word be that
goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but
it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the
thing whereto I sent it.
Daily devotions are important because as
Christians we need to build ourselves up on the Word of God, so that
our "belt of truth" remains fastened, and we continue to grow in our
faith (believing). We then are better prepared for the daily
spiritual warfare we may encounter.
