Life can be very tough. There are times when we feel all alone. The road seems long, and the burden seems extra heavy. You may be feeling that way this morning. Can I encourage you right now wherever you are, to know that in times like this you need to remind yourself of what God has said in Hebrews 13:5, “Never will I leave you; Never will I forsake you.”
The Apostle Paul wrote to the believers in Romans 15:13 and said, “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy spirit you may abound in hope.” This is a powerful statement of what God does for his children. God provides all those who believe in Him with hope and peace as they continue to seek Him. But this isn’t an ordinary event. No, he does it through a supernatural power, his Holy Spirit.
In challenging times, it can become easy to shrink back. To withdraw and to close the world off. Or to think that God isn’t listening, or that God doesn’t see your pain. That is a lie the devil wants you to believe. Can I encourage you today, that if you are feeling hopeless that the God of Hope and Peace is standing nearby. He is ready and willing to supply you with supernatural hope through his Holy Spirit. We are remined in Matthew 19:26, that “all things are possible with God.” And in Ephesians 3:20, that God is “able to do more than we can ask or imagine.” I pray you will lean on our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and allow the Holy Spirit to comfort you with hope and peace that is beyond this world.
