“And now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in You.
Psalm 39:7
What is your hope? What is it anchored in? When the storms of life come (and they will!), do you lose hope or is its foundation sure?
♪♫ My anchor holds and grips the solid Rock... His Name is Jesus... yes, He's the One... ♪♫
I have set the Lord continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
Psalm 16:8 NASB
When it's blowing and going with gale-force winds, what do you have to hold onto that is secure? Where will you 'hide' from the storms of life, and yet maintain your hope?
When my heart is overwhelmed; Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For You have been a shelter for me, A strong tower from the enemy. I will abide in Your tabernacle forever; I will trust in the shelter of Your wings.
Psalm 61:2b-4 NKJV
Do you have any guarantee for your hope? Anything that will back it up? What about the following?
God also bound himself with an oath, so that those who received the promise could be perfectly sure that he would never change his mind. So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls.
Hebrews 6:17-19 NLT
Word upon Word, promised forever. So in the principle of sowing and reaping, what are YOU sowing? I've just given you a page of encouragement to keep your hope!
Prayer:
Father,
Let everything we sow be pleasing unto you. Let it bring forth fruit, according to Your word. Encourage those who are reading this around the world. Multiply their hope in You. In Jesus' Name we pray.
