Complete Confidence

I’ve always heard people associate Job with patience, but honestly, I think he should be associated with confidence. When everything was taken from him in a day, he had confidence in God so much that he fell down and worshipped while trusting God’s plan. He didn’t understand why things were happening , but he had confidence in God. Then in Job 19:25, in response to his friends who accused him of wrongdoing, he said, “But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and he will stand upon the earth at last” (NLT). That’s the kind of confidence in God that we should all aspire to have. It allows us to worship in the storm, move forward when the path is unclear and trusts in impossible situations.

Here are some Bible verses on the confidence we can have:

1. I am convinced and confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will [continue to] perfect and complete it until the day of Christ Jesus [the time of His return].

Philippians 1:6 AMP

2. And the effect of righteousness will be peace, And the result of righteousness will be quietness and confident trust forever.

Isaiah 32:17 AMP

3. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Hebrews 4:16 ESV

4. My heart is confident in you, O God; no wonder I can sing your praises with all my heart!

Psalms 108:1 NLT

5. I’ve written this letter to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you will be assured and know without a doubt that you have eternal life. Since we have this confidence, we can also have great boldness before him, for if we ask anything agreeable to his will, he will hear us.

1 John 5:13-14 TPT
