About perseverance and courage to stand against every evil…

Hebrews 10:36 You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. (NIV)

Many people want to deny evil exists in the world. For many people, denying evil exists in the world is easier than trying to stand against evil. Christians must make commitments if they want to lead victorious lives against evil and darkness. Christians need perseverance and courage to be victorious over the evils wanting to destroy us. Lasting perseverance and courage against evil are possible only through Christ.

Having Christ alive within you is necessary to muster up perseverance and courage. One of evil's ways of destroying you is to erode your perseverance and lessen your courage. Evil wants to make you give up and be fearful. With Christ, you can find courage to stand against evil in all its forms because you know He is with you. In Christ's presence, you can find a reason for living. Your reason for living then gives you the power to fight against the dark ways of evil. Christ gives you power and courage when you experience fear, doubt, or anxiety. With Christ living in your heart, you can live in perseverance and courage as you glorify God as you do battle against the evil one.
