I think we, as Christians, often make it a habit to intentionally defer our hope. We often defer our own hope by assuming all God’s blessings & promises will happen “someday in heaven”.
And “hope deferred makes the heart sick.” (Proverbs 13:12)
God loves to be glorified… by restoring you. Here. Now.
His instructions to his disciples included “here and now” ministries of healing the sick, delivering the demon-oppressed, and raising the dead. The kingdom has arrived…
There is hope here, now. “I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living.” Psalm 116:9.
“Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do great things among you…”
Here are the passages I list at the end of the video, to read before we chat next time (not necessary to follow along, but some great stuff!):
- Job 38
- Psalm 33
- Psalm 111
- Psalm 136
- Psalm 147
To my fellow Christians facing fear, anxiety, or life’s struggles: Join me for morning coffee and quiet time in these ‘Coffee Time’ videos! I offer regular encouragement in short (under 20-minute) videos. I’ll walk through some great scripture passages to build a case for hope and faith.
I want to give you totally reasonable reasons to look forward with great hope. Let’s calm fears, answer questions, soothe anxiety, and get you excited for renewal and revival.
Share this video with your friends to encourage them, and subscribe to my YouTube channel to see more…
Thank you, and see you next time!
