For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our
learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have
hope (Romans 15:4).
Psalm 30:5 says, “…weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the
morning.” That pain, that challenge, is for a moment; therefore, don’t talk
about it, talk to it; declare your victory. Many are fond of letting others
know what they’re going through in life. You don’t need to announce your
problems. Announce your salvation; announce your triumphs and successes.
Learn to look in the right direction. Look unto the blessed hope. That
blessed hope is the Lord Jesus Christ. He’s no longer a stranger to you. He’s
your Lord and Saviour! So, hold on to your hope, for He’s the anchor of your
soul. Let Him change your thoughts, because through hope, your faith develops;
your faith arises, because it’s when you hope for something that you believe
for it.
You must first have an anticipation; you must have an expectation. The
Bible says the expectation of the righteous shall not be cut off (Proverbs
23:18). Your expectation is unique to God. So, always be expectant and excited
for the greater glory. If you have difficulties in any area—perhaps at work, in
your finance, family, health, etc.—it’s not over for you, because there’s hope.
Christ in you is the hope of glory.
There’s glory for you in that situation. Therefore, be positive about
life, and walk with a sanctified mind. See through the Word always, and bask in
the euphoria of your hope in the Lord.
PRAYER: Dear heavenly Father, thank you for the blessed hope I have in
Christ. Your grace is sufficient for me in all things, and I see through your
Word and function with the mind-set of the righteous. Thank you for making me
the expression of your righteousness, and effulgence of your glory, in Jesus’
Name. Amen.
