2 Corinthians 12:10
That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in
insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak,
then I am strong.
Blessings of Heaven
Romans 5:6-8
6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still
powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for
a good man someone might possibly dare to die.
8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we
were still sinners, Christ died for us.
The Crown of Life
James 1:12
Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when
he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised
to those who love him.
Revelation 2:10
Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you,
the devil will put some of you in prison to test you, and you will suffer
persecution for ten days. Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will
give you the crown of life.
The Victor’s Crown
1 Corinthians 9:25-27
25 Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict
training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a
crown that will last forever.
26 Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do
not fight like a man beating the air.
27 No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I
have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.
