Do You Hope For The Fullness Of God

"The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:" 2 Peter 2:9

Faith is the evidence of things hoped for, Hebrews 11:1, so ask yourself this question, do you hope for all of the things that we have studied in these postings about the power of Jesus to be realized within our lives? Do you have the lively hope that because Jesus is your Lord, that there is absolutely no temptation that can sway you and that through the power of Christ there is no evil that can overcome you? Do you have the hope that through Christ you are saved to the uttermost, delivered from every temptation?

When we talk about things like perfection and sanctification, are you offended, or do you hope that they can be lived and experienced? Do you have the hope that each and every second of every day that Jesus is actually living to intercede for you, in every area of your life, for the small and mundane and for the massive and life changing? Do you hope that you are sealed with Holy Spirit and that nothing can penetrate that shield? If you are saved, you have the lively hope of the Holy Spirit dwelling within you. And if you are saved, faith will come because of His hope and as you hear these Truths of God, your faith will grow and mature, because Jesus is the One Authoring and Finishing your faith. And such hope will never disappoint or shame you!

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the Love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit which is given unto us.” Romans 5:5
