Romans 5:5 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. (KJV)

Do you have hope?

As a Christian, your hope fuels every moment, of every day, of your life. Sometimes people, who don’t know Christ or who are not running hard after Christ, evaluate your hope as foolish. Continue to live your life and walk in the hope of God. Your strength comes because you are not ashamed. It may seem irrational. It may even seem crazy. However, you know who covers, keeps, and sustains you. 

1 Peter 3:14-15 But even if you happen to suffer for doing what is right, you will have the joyful experience of the blessing of God. And Don’t be intimidated or terrified by those who would terrify you. 15 But give reverent honor in your hearts to the Anointed One and treat him as the holy Master of your lives. And if anyone asks about the hope living within you, always be ready to explain your faith. (TPT)

The power of God is what gets you up every day. Your knowledge of God and His love for you helps you live and life that shows you have hope. Why do you to turn the other cheek; pray for those who handle you inappropriately; maintain peace while storms are raging? It is because of your hope! Thank God for the Holy Ghost as He comforts, teaches, guides, and serves as a constant reminder of why you have hope and where your hope lies.

Please agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response:

Father, I thank You for my hope. I repent for those times I walked doubt. Because of my hope, I show love and speak peace and encouragement, in my life and also in the lives of others. I have hope in You. Thank You for the Holy Ghost, Who comforts me every day. He encourages me; He gives me strength, and He fortifies my hope as I stand on Your promises. I give You glory…
