My Hope is in You

Tomorrow is Jan 1st, 2012. I pray we find rest and peace in Jesus throughout the New Year, knowing He can be trusted with every detail of our lives. Listen and be blessed.


Confidence in God

According to Websters Dictionary, here is what confidence means;

"Faith or belief that one will act in a right, proper, or effective way. The quality or state of being certain. A relation of trust or intimacy, reliance on another's discretion."

Everyday life is filled with trials, ups and downs, and the unexpected. People and circumstances change. But it is important for us to remember that our heart is to be focused on Jesus and be certain about God's master plan. Each day God will allow the things that need to happen, in order to accomplish His will in us and in others. Those of us that have received Christ as our Lord and Savior, don't have far to turn for hope because we can trust the Lord and all that happens. He will never leave us.

2 Corinthians 1:7 "We are confident that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in the comfort God gives us."

Hebrew 10:35 "So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you!"

1 John 5:14-15 "And we are confident that He hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases Him. And since we know He hears us when we make our requests, we also know that He will give us what we ask for."

Romans 15:13 "I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in Him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit."

Romans 5:3-5 "We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because He has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with His love."

Feeling like God can but won't lift your burden? Trust Him. Are things to difficult to bear? Hold on to Him. Are you in need? Pray to Him. If you don't know why & need wisdom, ask and rest in Him. Do you need a friend and comforter? Turn towards Him. God is love and is always there for you. He can always be trusted so believe in His plans.

Mark 10:27 "Jesus looked at them intently and said, "Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But not with God. Everything is possible with God."

God I pray for your will to be done and my will to be in line with yours. I pray to trust you in all things even when I can't see the good in it. Help my heart have confidence with all circumstances you allow in my life. I want to trust and follow you.
