Romans 15:13 - Now the God of HOPE fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in HOPE, through the power of the Holy Ghost. HOPE: You are never without hope unless you are depending on your 'own' or 'other' sources of strength instead of the strength of God that is waiting to abound through the power of the Holy Ghost.Today, its become common to trust in your:1. Bank account.2. Health Insurance3. Job4. Friends 5. Family. 6. Charities7. Church 8. Pastor/Elders9. Government Programs10. YourselfAll of these can provide a certain level of help but once you are faced with life and death issues, you NEED the Hope that God provides.I could list more but you should understand, our hope is not in this world or it's sources of help, but in Jesus Christ. Now, do you have God's Hope or are you trusting in any or all the above instead of placing your HOPE in God.God provides, and God answers prayers, but while you wait, place your hope in God, and not this world.
