Bloom: Everything You Need | Week 5 | To Self-Control Add Perseverance

22 Then Moses led Israel from the Red Sea and they went into the Desert of Shur. For three days they traveled in the desert without finding water. 23 When they came to Marah, they could not drink its water because it was bitter. (That is why the place is called Marah. c) 24 So the people grumbled against Moses, saying, “What are we to drink?” Exodus 15:22–24 (NIV)

27 Then they came to Elim, where there were twelve springs and seventy palm trees, and they camped there near the water. Exodus 15:27 (NIV)

5 For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6 and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance… 2 Peter 1:5-6 (NIV)

Perseverance = Hupomone

Hupo = Under

Mone = Stay

Stay the right course under pressure 

2 Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. 4 And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. James 1:2-4 (NASB)

In your walk of faith, where do you need to persevere?
