Bible verses about
Courage
“To the person who overcomes, I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of my God,” Jesus promises (Revelation 2:7).
Eight times in the book of Revelation, special rewards are stated for the ones “who overcome.” God will never ask us to do something without equipping us to do it. He knows what obstacles lie before us — and He promises to provide the courage to not only meet them, but to master them as well.
