The God of Hope

 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit - Romans 15:13.

                     Jesus Christ is our hope. He came down to earth as Savior to give us hope. Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead - 1 Peter 1:3. Christ is in us is the hope of glory. To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory - Colossians 1:27.

                    There is a great hope for the children of God. Now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as He is - 1 John 3:2. He is our blessed hope. We wait for the blessed hope - the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ Let Your mercy, O Lord, be upon us, just as we hope in You - Psalm 33:22.

                    God gives us hope in all hopeless situations. Put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is unfailing love and with him is full redemption - Psalm 130:7. No matter how dark the situations are in the world, let us not fear as our only hope is in the Lord. May the God of hope fill us with joy and peace as we place all our hope on Him. Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him - Psalm 62:5.      

                                    

PRAYER: Dear Lord, You are the God of hope. Help us to place all our hope in You in all situations. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
