Hebrews 10:35-36
"Therefore, do not throw away your confidence; it will have great recompense. You need endurance to do the will of God and receive what he has promised."
How does one gain confidence? - Daily actions. It is built up over time with right actions. It doesn't take much to lose it, one or two failures and you start over again. What actions do you need, to increase your Godly confidence? Do you push yourself?
The reward of Godly confidence is eternal. The will of God takes time, it isn't an immediate reward. Take each day one at a time, ask God for endurance to run His race. Be patient with yourself and those around you. When the race is over and you have followed the will of God, then your reward will be great.
Dear Lord God, I trust in You. Guide my actions today so my Godly confidence may increase. May I be patient with myself and those I encounter. May I listen to Your will and act upon Your directions. May I forgive myself for my slip ups and recall your grace to help on my journey. I thank You for another week Lord God to do Your will. I am grateful for Your blessings in my life and I hope for eternity. In Jesus name, Amen.
