"...for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose." Philippians 2:13
"So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded." Hebrews 10:35
"And now, dear children, continue in him, so that when he appears we may be confident and unashamed before him at his coming at his coming." 1 John 2:28
"This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us - whatever we ask - we know that we have what we asked of him." 1 John 5:14,15
