His confidence, not yours

Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked, for the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being snared. (Proverbs 3:25-26)

Therefore do not cast away your confidence (trusting in Christ), which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God (believe in His righteousness, not yours), you may receive the promise: "FOR YET A LITTLE WHILE, AND HE WHO IS COMING WILL COME AND WILL NOT TARRY. NOW THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH; BUT IF ANYONE DRAWS BACK, MY SOUL HAS NO PLEASURE IN HIM." But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul. (Heb 10:35-39) According to the eternal purpose (will of God) which God accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him. Therefore I ask that you do not lose heart... (Eph 3:11-13) No matter what situation... Hang on to Him for His strength is in you. Hold on to your faith for your faith is from Him. Let not your heart be troubled and let Him handle all situations. Behold unto Jesus for He is your confidence and He never let you down! Hear Him!
