”SAVED BY THE BLOOD OF AN OVERCOMER!" Louis Pasteur's co-worker in the demonstration of what used to be called the "germ-theory" was Dr. Felix Ruh, a Jewish doctor in Paris. The physician's granddaughter died of black diphtheria, and Dr. Ruh, vowing that he would find out what killed his granddaughter, locked himself in his laboratory for days. He emerged with a fierce determination to prove, with his colleague Louis Pasteur, that the "germ theory" was more than a theory. The Medical Association had disapproved of Pasteur and had succeeded in getting him exiled, but he did not go far from Paris.

Hebrews 10:35-36 35 So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. 36 You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.
This encourages us believers to persevere in our Christian faith and conduct when facing pressure. Do not abandon our faith in times of persecution, but show by our endurance that our faith is real. Faith is the conviction base on past experience that God’s new and fresh surprises will surely be ours.
Let me share with you somethings that I have experience from persevering.
