YOUR CASE IS NOT HOPELESS
“Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which entereth into that within the veil.” Hebrews 6:19 (KJV)
There is always a secure platform for God’s people. So, I don’t care what you are encountering today, my God will fight for you. Don’t put yourself in a hopeless situation. You are not hopeless! I don’t care where you are, what you are encountering and the challenges that you are facing now, you are not hopeless. Colossians 1:27 states that Christ in you is the hope of glory. It is not the hope of shame. It is not the hope of disgrace and it is not the hope of humiliation. It is the hope of glory because you have Christ in you. So, your case is not hopeless.
When man’s hope fails, we must stand on the supernatural hope. There is a supernatural hope. Man’s hope is contingent on human reasoning which always has a margin for failure. It is subject to change. When you are working on man’s hope, when every human calculation and theory has failed, you are forced to give up. When you are working on man’s hope and you look around and everything seems to be contrary, the next thing is to say well it will not work for me. That is why you cannot stand on that.
But supernatural hope is a joyful confident expectation. This hope that God gives is a joyful confident expectation of good. It does not stand in the wisdom of men but in the power of God. It does not fail. This hope of God does not fail. Weather conditions cannot change it! X-ray reports that make the doctor come out and say, “There’s nothing I can do” can not change it. It is a hope that does not fail. It has no margin for failure. Stand on it today.
