Bible Verse of The Day – 1-15-18

Psalm 71:5 (NKJV) 5 For You are my hope, O Lord GOD; You are my trust from my youth.

Our relationship with God gives us hope.

We serve a Creator who wants only the very best for us.

Jeremiah 29:11 (NKJV) 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Sometimes we may not feel like there is any hope, especially when things just seem to go wrong again and again.

But, rest assured that this is just life and the things that happen to all of us from time to time.

As we have mentioned many times in the past, seasons come and go. And each season offers unique opportunities as well as unique challenges. It’s not the fact that challenges come that determines who we are. It’s how we handle them that matters.

It’s always easy to lay down and have ourselves a little pity party. But that will never help us or change anything for the better. It will do quite the opposite.

So, we say to you today, rise up! Shake off the sorrow and the discouragement. Look your challenges square in the face and claim the victory that Jesus has won for us on the cross.

Rebuke the devil, in the name of Jesus, and push forward.

Romans 15:13 (NKJV) 13 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.
