TOPIC : HOPE
TEXT : 1 Thessalonians 1:3 Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father
Memory Verse : Job 14:7
For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
FOCUS
Today, we are looking at hope as another faith booster. From our opening scripture, what is the patience of hope? The patience of hope is when you don’t give up on your expectations. There are so many people that their faith fail because they give up on God. Hope is defined as expectation, something you believe to happen to you, something you wish for that it will happen.
How does hope boost faith? What makes faith to fail is that there’s no hope to fertilize it. Hope keeps you believing, you keep having faith that God will do it. When hope is not there that is when faith fails. You must know how to power your faith with hope, keep having new hopes, the hope you had before didn’t work praise God and have another hope, the relationship you hoped will end in marriage didn’t work, praise God and have another hope.
Be hopeful, don’t let Satan steal your hope, get it right with God that only Him can make you. Job said something; that even if a tree be cut down at the scent of water, it will spring up again. To him that is joined to the living, there ‘s hope. A living dog is better than a dead lion. That is hope at work; because when hope is lost, faith is lost. Hope boost your faith.
LESSON
Colossians 1:3
We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you
The gospel has hope, the gospel assure us that all will be well, that though our begining may be small, our later end will surely increase. The hope if this gospel is not just an ordinary hope, but a hope that is tied to the gospel of our lord Jesus Christ which cannot be moved.
Hope fuels your faith, makes your faith to be potent. Don’t worry, everything will be well; God is going to do that which only Him can do, He is not a man that He should lie, neither is He the son of man that should repent of everything He has said. God wants you to keep you hope alive, never doubt God, keep fueling your faith, keep trusting Him, keep doing what He wants you to do and before you know, God will show Himself. Stay blessed!
