Never think that God's delays are God's denials. Hold on hold fast hold out. Patience is genius.

Matthew 16:18:
And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of death will not overcome it.
(NIV)
And I tell you, you are Peter [Greek, Petros--a large piece of rock], and on this rock [Greek, petra--a huge rock like Gibraltar] I will build My church, and the gates of Hades (the powers of the infernal region) shall not overpower it [or be strong to its detriment or hold out against it].
(AMP)
And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
(KJV)

There is no rampart that will hold out against malice.

In bad fortune hold out, in good hold in.
