We Have Hope

"And where is now my hope? as for my hope,
who shall see it?"  Job 17:15



Hope.

It's a quality that all people of our world are looking for.

Some look for hope in money, power, things, or people.  These will not last and set a trap for the soul.


"Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?

 Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb.

 So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:

 Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web. "  Job 8:11-15




For those who know Him and put your faith & trust in Him- our hope is secure!  Be encouraged!

The Bible tells us, "It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD."  Lamentations 3:26

He'll preserve us and strengthen our hearts:

"O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.

 Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD."   Psalm 31:23-24

We are to keep hoping!

"But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more."  Psalm 71:14

He's been our God and He'll keep being our God!  HE is our hope!

"Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man. For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my youth. By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art He that took me out of my mother's bowels: my praise shall be continually of thee." Psalm 71:4-6

His Word brings hope, shelter, and safety!

"Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word."  Psalm 119:14

We please God!

"The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy." 
Psalm 147:11

We will find joy!

"The hope of the righteous shall be gladness"  Proverbs 10:28

We will be blessed!

"Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is."   Jeremiah 17:17

It will bring life to your soul!

"Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life." 
Proverbs 13:12

Hope in HIM purifies us!

"And every man that hath this hope in Him purifieth himself, even as he is pure."  1 John 3:3

Our hope will become faith!

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."  Hebrews 11:1


We have the blessed hope... the return of the LORD!

"Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ"  Titus 2:12-14

Always be ready to share your HOPE with others!

"But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;

But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear"  1 Peter 3:14-15
