For you need endurance, so that after you have done God's will, you may receive what was promised." The writer of Hebrews encourages us to have confidence which only makes sense as the Spirit of God lives within us. However, we must also be humble. Over confidence can lead to arrogance, but a quiet confidence with humility is what we should strive for.
