What robs us of His Hope? We Do!
We substitute “hope,” with false hopes of materialism, ideologies, and vain philosophies. We allow the system of the world and the cares of the world to influence us. We listen to evil thoughts to mistrust God, doubt God and act independently of Him and lean to our own understanding and not trust Him. We rob ourselves by treating His Word lightly, and a “something to do,” on a checklist rather than Some One to meet with and know! We rob ourselves!
“Man shall not live by bread alone but by EVERY Word that proceeds from the mouth of God!” “Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. His DELIGHT is in it and he MEDITATES DAY AND NIGHT…Let the Word of Christ dwell in you RICHLY…Prove yourselves to be Doers of His Word…Like newborn babes DESIRE the Word so that by it you may GROW…” Are you growing in HOPE, Confidence, and assurance in Him? Are you digesting His Word, meditating, renewing your mind, and applying it? It does not mean you have to read huge quantities but it does mean taking, digesting it, meditating upon it, and applying it. and it can nourish your soul and give hope that is guaranteed, eternally so to your mind and heart.
Read These verses regarding His Word. NOTE in the verses if there is anything to beware of, avoid, lay aside and replace with His Word…{Matthew 4:4; Rom 10:13; Psalm 1:2; Col 3:15-16; James 1:21-22 1 Peter 2;1-2; Rom 12:1-2}.
REST, RECEIVE, RELY upon the GOD OF ALL HOPE!
