Perseverance

Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.

Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
