Concerning the end times, Jesus says the following:
Matthew 24:12-13 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
We
endure by keeping before our minds those things God has done in the
Bible as-well-as those things God has done in our own lives.

God made many promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob which God fulfilled in the lives of Joseph and Moses.
God delivered the children of Israel from the bondage of Egypt as God promised HE would do,
As we reread of this deliverance in Exodus 3-15, God is made very real to us and we are strengthened in God, helping us to endure.
As
we think of that time when God caused us to be born again and of the
times God has helped us in various problems of this life, we are helped to endure to the end.

As we keep God before us, in our memory of that which God has done, we endure through HIM.
Hebrews 11
24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing HIM who is invisible.
We
also endure by seeing God who is invisible as we view situations and
things and see God behind these current events of our lives.
The world sees the mountain and they marvel at the mountain.
We see the invisible, God who created the heavens and the earth, and we marvel at God.
And because we keep God in our thoughts, God causes us to endure to the end of our time on this present earth.
We endure through God.
