Hope

Trust God - In Him we have Hope!

The biggest implication God’s sovereignty has for our lives today is hope. When we talk about the word hope, we usually equate it to wishful thinking. But the authors of the Bible understood the word hope to be the expectancy of a promised outcome or the waiting period before a promise was carried out.

 

When war appears unending, God will one day give us peace.

 

When Christians are bullied for their values, God will be their defense.

 

When families split apart, God offers a family that will never divide.

 

When society undergoes changes, God will remain unchanging.

 

Just because the trends of society seem to move away from God’s values, He doesn’t move away from us. God isn’t going anywhere. Our hope transcends what is today and trusts in what God will do tomorrow.

 

The Spirit prays for you. God wants to lift you above all the confusion, anxiety, and worries and remove what wants to steal your peace.

 

Suddenly you can see what you’re called to, and you can see His plans for the earth. You get His ideas and are led to agree with and declare them. The Holy Spirit wants you to recognize that whatever you are walking through, He is not discouraged. He is excited for you because it will work out for your good. He is praying to the Father about the divine recompense that you’ll receive as you turn your anxieties and pain over to Him.

Good Friday

  Happy Good Friday   This is the day that we remember what Jesus did for us --- enduring beating, mocking, and being crucified.   I imagine his disciples did not consider it to be a “good” Friday at the time. But what makes it GOOD is what happened on Sunday --- when Jesus did the impossible and rose from the dead.    Knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.  ~ 1 Peter 1:18-19 ESV   One of the best ways of celebrating Jesus and His Resurrection…is through family traditions.    Family traditions can be as simple as attending  ️  church and having lunch or brunch together.    Jesus was a story-teller. I believe he knew the power of a story to capture hearts and bring joy while effectively delivering a specific message. He often used parables to tea...

Why God Wants to Bless You!

  Why God Wants to Bless You!   “For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away” (Matthew 25:29, ESV). Do you know that God wants to bless you? He wants you to have abundance, lacking no good thing. But He doesn’t want that for you and me so we can merely enjoy our lives. He wants us to steward our resources so we can be better able to reach out to others and bless them in His name. Jesus said in Matthew 5:16 (ESV),   “…let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”   The goal is fruitfulness. The goal is God’s Kingdom. The goal is for God’s blessing to flow through us so we might be a blessing to others, to the glory of His name!
