I READ : Hebrews 10:35-39
Perseverance is an ongoing effort to achieve specific objectives without easily giving up in achieving success. The opposite of perseverance is to easily give up, discouraged, pessimistic and easily think of failure. The diligent will keep trying despite facing many obstacles because he knows that what he does is right. Someone might be smart, talented and educated but that person will not succeed without perseverance. The verse above says that we need perseverance to do God’s will. In doing so, we will obtain God’s promises. We also need to be diligent in doing God’s calling in our lives so that we will be successful in every aspect of life.
I DECLARE : James 1:4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.
I DO : What action will I take today after meditating on the Word of God?
I PRAY : Pray as guided by the Holy Spirit.
