I will not waiver
I’m looking for another way of expressing the statement I will not waver. I have looked up synonyms for the word certain, but they just do not seem to fit into what I’m composing

Martin Luther's translator put it this way: I cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. Amen.brainyquote.com/quotes/martin_luther_403720

The spelling of "waiver" in the title is incorrect. This has a different meaning from "waver" used in the body of the question. Waiver is a noun meaning the act or instance of waiving (or not enforcing) a claim.

Well, what is it you're composing? Without that, how will we be able to suggest something that might fit better?

You say, "I have looked up synonyms for the word certain." This means that you are looking for a positive expression of the phrase I will not waiver.
I would use:
I will remain steadfast.
From Merriam-Webster:
1 a : firmly fixed in place : IMMOVAVABLE
b : not subject to change
the steadfast doctrine of original sin
—Ellen Glasgow
2 : firm in belief, determination, or adherence : LOYAL
her followers have remained steadfast
