Meditate on the Hope that Jesus gives you.
Love the LORD, all you godly
ones! For the LORD protects those who are loyal to him, but he harshly punishes
the arrogant. So be strong and courageous, all you who put your hope in the
LORD! Psalm 31:23-24
Be strong and courageous. That assurance should give us hope. The Lord told Joshua to be strong and courageous. That message of hope was communicated to and through David who was under persecution from his enemies. That message…be strong and courageous…comes to us as we wait patiently for Christ’s return. Jesus said to be prepared…not to be afraid.
But Jesus spoke to them at once. "Don't be
afraid," he said. "Take courage. I am here!" Matthew 14:27
The author of Hebrew tells us to
encourage others.
You must warn each other every day, while it is still
"today," so that none of you will be deceived by sin and hardened
against God. Hebrews 3:13
So…I tell you today…be strong and courageous…put your hope in the Lord! Find a time and a place for Jesus in your life and in your heart. Then share Him with others...that is just what He wants us to do.
Prayer ~ Lord, I place my hope in you. You are the Way, the Truth and the Light. I look to You for guidance…for peace, strength and hope.
Verse of Salvation ~ We were
given this hope when we were saved. (If we already have something, we don't
need to hope for it. But if we look forward to something we don't yet have, we
must wait patiently and confidently.) Romans
8:24-25
