HOPE

Text: 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.

 *Do not give up on God, always keep your hope alive in Him.* He shall always come true for you even in your darkest hour.

What keeps you going in life is hope for what the future holds. Do not allow the enemy cast you into despair. Once you are hopeless, then you won't  be able to see the brighter side of life anymore.

Things can be tough around you and in your life today, but you must keep the flame of Hope alive at all times.

If there is hope for a tree that has been cut down to sprout again, then there is hope for you to rise again. 

When you are down don't ever  say or think that all hope is gone. Once your trust is in God, you will surely rise again. 

Look at the case of Lazarus of Bethany, he was dead for four days. All hope was gone.  No one could ever believe that he would rise again, but when Jesus Christ, our Lord came to the scene, he came alive again. (John 11).

As a child of God, you must not allow anything, anyone or any circumstance make you lose hope in God. God will always come through for you, only fix your gaze on Him. 

There is no situation He can't fix. There is no darkness He can't lighten up. There is no dead, He can't bring back to life. There is no hopeless situation, He can't revive.

All you need do is  ensure you are living for the lively hope and not dead hope. Any hope outside of Jesus Christ is dead hope. So, let your hope be centred on Christ. Jesus. 

 *God is at work, and He's working on your case, just wait and hope in Him.* 

*Bible Reading :* 

Luke 11:1-44.

 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

Father Lord, please give me the grace to always fix my gaze on you in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...
