Here

I, John, your brother and the one who shares with you in the persecution, kingdom, and endurance that are in Jesus, was on the island called Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony about Jesus.

I know your works as well as your labor and steadfast endurance, and that you cannot tolerate evil. You have even put to the test those who refer to themselves as apostles (but are not), and have discovered that they are false.

Therefore, remember what you received and heard, and obey it, and repent. If you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will never know at what hour I will come against you.

This requires the steadfast endurance of the saints -- those who obey God's commandments and hold to their faith in Jesus.

For the message is a witness to what is decreed; it gives reliable testimony about how matters will turn out. Even if the message is not fulfilled right away, wait patiently; for it will certainly come to pass -- it will not arrive late.

Then Jesus told them a parable to show them they should always pray and not lose heart.

For you need endurance in order to do God's will and so receive what is promised.

Think of him who endured such opposition against himself by sinners, so that you may not grow weary in your souls and give up.

My brothers and sisters, consider it nothing but joy when you fall into all sorts of trials,

So be patient, brothers and sisters, until the Lord's return. Think of how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the ground and is patient for it until it receives the early and late rains.
