We Have Peace In Believing, So We May Abound In Hope

“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.” Romans 15:13

God has given us His very Own Spirit to empower us to believe all of His Truth and in believing we will have peace, just as Jesus has peace in God’s Truth. Jesus isn’t fretting about anything, all of His needs are met, and we too are empowered with the Holy Spirit to have Jesus’ lively hope in the Truth! Yet we don’t just hope, through the power of the Holy Spirit that is within us we abound in God’s hope! Faith is the evidence of things hoped for, and we have been given the Holy Ghost, so that we may abound in God’s hope, so praise be to God we may abound in His faith! And to insure that we do, we have God’s very Spirit within us! Jesus taught us that if we have faith the size of a grain of mustard seed, that we could tell a mountain to move and it would obey us. It doesn’t take a lot of faith to be powerful. And God has given us all of Himself, so that Jesus may empower us to abound in His Own faith; which is far greater than the size of a mustard seed! God is a God of hope and God’s hope for us is that we abound in His hope. And to insure that we do abound in His hope, God has filled us with all peace and with all joy! Faith comes from hearing the Word of God, so you bet ya; I am going to desire and allow God to preach it through me! I need this Truth, life in this world without Jesus is ruff, and eternity is hell! But through the power of Jesus in our lives we now have lively hope and hope brings powerful faith and faith brings abundant life results!
