Hebrews 10:36

PatienceGod's will and calling

34 You sympathized with those in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, knowing that you yourselves had a better and permanent possession.

35 So do not throw away your confidence; it holds a great reward.

You need to persevere, so that after you have done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised.

37 For, “In just a little while, He who is coming will come and will not delay.

38 But My righteous one will live by faith; and if he shrinks back, I will take no pleasure in him.”
