One definition for hope is: To look forward to with confidence or expectation. We must bring the Word of God with all its hope to someone who does not know it is real. When we bring hope, we bring life.
It is life changing to finally believe again. It is more than just asking God for something we so badly need; we must expect our miracle. Somewhere in the midst of asking, believing, and expecting God to answer, we will find what we are looking for.
“I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.” Psalms 27:13 NIV
One of the biggest problems we have in the world today is there are so many people who have lost hope. There seems to be so many hurts, problems, sicknesses, troubles, financial woes, family problems, world issues, political concerns, etc.
It seems the world has no hope.
Apart from God, it is an awful, hopeless place. But with God’s help, we can make it. Please know that whatever situation you find yourself in at this moment, there is hope. You may not be able to see or feel the hope, but it is there for you.
How do we find the hope? There is only one place where hope can be found, and that is in Jesus Christ. Psalms 25:4-5 NLT “Show me the path where I should walk, O LORD; point out the right road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you.”
Trust God. He wants you to trust Him. What does God say about who you are and what His will is for your life? Don’t go by your feelings. Instead we should remind ourselves that God only has plans for us that are good. Jeremiah in the Bible helps us remember GODS plans for us are good and not for disaster, to give us a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11 NLT
We do not need to be disappointed and feel alone. We can have hope! God’s love in our hearts will ignite the flames of hope we have buried deep inside our hearts. God’s Word can encourage us as we read it with great anticipation and faith.
