H.O.P.E
“And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.” Psalm 39:7
God is committed TO us.
He has made a covenant WITH us.
His love has provided a covering FOR us.
Therefore we are:
H – Holding on
Affixing ….with the tenacity and the grip of a mad bulldog; my every desire, concern and
request to the alignment of God’s word.
“Therefore be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord”
I Corinthians 15:58
O - Optimistically
Remain confident. Refuse to permit fear, doubt and unbelief intervene. Speak no negative words… nor permit anyone else to clutter your space with the same.
“And this is the confidence that we have in Him….” I John 5:14
P - Pressing
Pursuing; pushing through and against every obstacle that is attempting to cause me to disbelieve the promises of God.
“And we pull down reasonings and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and we take all minds prisoner to the obedience of The Messiah.” 2 Corinthians 10:5
E – Expecting
Awaiting; believing; and in excited anticipation of something that you haven’t seen the
manifestation of – yet.
“We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair”.
2 Corinthians 4:8
Therefore, it doesn’t matter how the circumstances may appear; nor the evidence which is stacked against me; nor the opinions of others –
“I am Holding on, Optimistically, Pressing…Expecting”…God to today begin into manifest the benefits of every seed that I’ve sown, which is ready to be harvested.
“I am Holding on, Optimistically, Pressing…Expecting”… to see a change in the lives of my unsaved loved ones in accord with the prayers that have been prayed on their behalf.
“I am Holding on, Optimistically, Pressing…Expecting”… God to use me in a fashion that I have not previously known.
Lastly, “I am Holding on, Optimistically, Pressing…Expecting”… God to do exceedingly and abundantly above all that I could ever ask, think, or imagine……and to do it through His power that is at work within me..
And HOPE maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. Romans 5:5
