CONFIDENCE in CHRIST

 

Galatians 3:26

King James Version

26 For ye are all the children of God 

by faith in Christ Jesus.


What makes the believer confident in CHRIST?

What makes us trust in the LORD JESUS?

What promises does the LORD have for His faithful?

What makes us give up everything for the LORD?

What words from GOD give us real hope in this world?

What hope do we have in the future?

What delights us about JESUS?

Here's what SPIRIT and Scripture say our confidence comes from.

Let these fill your heart with the LORD's presence, and promise.

Creating peace, love, joy, and contentment in you:

Psalm 90:2

King James Version

2 Before the mountains were brought forth, 

or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, 

even from everlasting to everlasting, 

thou art God.


Proverbs 3:25-26

King James Version

25 Be not afraid of sudden fear, 

neither of the desolation of the wicked, 

when it cometh.

26 For the Lord shall be thy confidence, 

and shall keep thy foot from being taken.


Ecclesiastes 7:13-14

King James Version

13 Consider the work of God: 

for who can make that straight, 

which he hath made crooked?

14 In the day of prosperity be joyful, 

but in the day of adversity consider: 

God also hath set the one over against the other, 

to the end that man should find nothing after him.


Jeremiah 17:7-8

King James Version

7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, 

and whose hope the Lord is.

8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, 

and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, 

and shall not see when heat cometh, 

but her leaf shall be green; 

and shall not be careful in the year of drought, 

neither shall cease from yielding fruit.


Matthew 7:29

King James Version

29 For he taught them as one having authority, 

and not as the scribes.


John 3:16-17

King James Version

16 For God so loved the world, 

that he gave his only begotten Son, 

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, 

but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world 

to condemn the world; 

but that the world through him 

might be saved.


John 5:24

King James Version

24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, 

He that heareth my word, 

and believeth on him that sent me, 

hath everlasting life, 

and shall not come into condemnation; 

but is passed from death unto life.


John 14:26

King James Version

26 But the Comforter, 

which is the Holy Ghost, 

whom the Father will send in my name, 

he shall teach you all things, 

and bring all things to your remembrance, 

whatsoever I have said unto you.


Romans 10:13

King James Version

13 For whosoever shall call 

upon the name of the Lord 

shall be saved.


Colossians 2:2-3

King James Version

2 That their hearts might be comforted, 

being knit together in love, 

and unto all riches 

of the full assurance of understanding, 

to the acknowledgement 

of the mystery of God, 

and of the Father, 

and of Christ;

3 In whom are hid 

all the treasures of wisdom 

and knowledge.


Hebrews 3:14

King James Version

14 For we are made partakers of Christ, 

if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast 

unto the end;


Hebrews 4:14-16

King James Version

14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, 

that is passed into the heavens, 

Jesus the Son of God, 

let us hold fast our profession.

15 For we have not an high priest 

which cannot be touched 

with the feeling of our infirmities; 

but was in all points tempted like as we are, 

yet without sin.

16 Let us therefore come boldly 

unto the throne of grace, 

that we may obtain mercy, 

and find grace to help in time of need.


Hebrews 10:19-22

King James Version

19 Having therefore, brethren, 

boldness to enter into the holiest 

by the blood of Jesus,

20 By a new and living way, 

which he hath consecrated for us, 

through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

21 And having an high priest over the house of God;

22 Let us draw near with a true heart 

in full assurance of faith, 

having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, 

and our bodies washed with pure water.


Hebrews 11:1-3

King James Version

11 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, 

the evidence of things not seen.

2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.

3 Through faith we understand 

that the worlds were framed by the word of God, 

so that things which are seen 

were not made of things which do appear.


Hebrews 13:5-6

King James Version

5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; 

and be content with such things as ye have: 

for he hath said, 

I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

6 So that we may boldly say, 

The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear 

what man shall do unto me.


1 John 2:27-28

King James Version

27 But the anointing 

which ye have received of him abideth in you, 

and ye need not that any man teach you: 

but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, 

and is truth, and is no lie, 

and even as it hath taught you, 

ye shall abide in him.

28 And now, little children, abide in him; 

that, when he shall appear, 

we may have confidence, 

and not be ashamed before him 

at his coming.


1 John 3:21-23

King James Version

21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, 

then have we confidence toward God.

22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, 

because we keep his commandments, 

and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

23 And this is his commandment, 

That we should believe 

on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, 

and love one another, 

as he gave us commandment.


1 John 5:14-15

King James Version

14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, 

that, if we ask any thing according to his will, 

he heareth us:

15 And if we know that he hear us, 

whatsoever we ask, 

we know that we have the petitions 

that we desired of him.


Revelation 21:1-3

King James Version

21 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: 

for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; 

and there was no more sea.

2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, 

coming down from God out of heaven, 

prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, 

Behold, 

the tabernacle of God is with men, 

and he will dwell with them, 

and they shall be his people, 

and God himself shall be with them, 

and be their God.


Revelation 21:4-5

King James Version

4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; 

and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, 

nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: 

for the former things are passed away.

5 And he that sat upon the throne said, 

Behold, 

I make all things new. 

And he said unto me, Write: 

for these words are true and faithful.


Revelation 21:6-7

King James Version

6 And he said unto me, 

It is done. 

I am Alpha and Omega, 

the beginning and the end. 

I will give unto him that is athirst 

of the fountain of the water of life freely.

7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; 

and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.


Revelation 22:1-2

King James Version

22 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, 

clear as crystal, 

proceeding out of the throne of God 

and of the Lamb.

2 In the midst of the street of it, 

and on either side of the river, 

was there the tree of life, 

which bare twelve manner of fruits, 

and yielded her fruit every month: 

and the leaves of the tree 

were for the healing of the nations.


Revelation 22:3-4

King James Version

3 And there shall be no more curse: 

but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; 

and his servants shall serve him:

4 And they shall see his face; 

and his name shall be in their foreheads.


Revelation 22:5

King James Version

5 And there shall be no night there; 

and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; 

for the Lord God giveth them light: 

and they shall reign for ever and ever.


Revelation 22:12-13

King James Version

12 And, behold, I come quickly; 

and my reward is with me, 

to give every man according as his work shall be.

13 I am Alpha and Omega, 

the beginning and the end, 

the first and the last.


Nothing like Scripture to give us REAL hope.

Through the spiritual; not the physical.

In CHRIST; not the world.


I thank SPIRIT, Who led me to these sources.

Which made it quite easy to create this post.
