People, who overcome the trials of life on earth, will receive the blessings God has for them: eating from the tree of life, escaping from eternal torment, receiving a new heavenly name, having authority over the nations, being in the book of life, being a pillar in God’s spiritual temple, and sitting with Christ on his throne. Successfully following Christ requires boldness and bravery to stand for when oppression arises. We must pray for courage when we go into the mission field. The main point of this verse is that those who endure the testing of evil will be rewarded by God.

Revelation 21:7-8
7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children. 8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
