THE ENDURING HOPE IN CHRIST (2)
TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org
DATE: SATURDAY, 9 MARCH 2024
Certainly, beloved, only Christ offers us a hope that endures because He is the embodiment of hope itself. His life, death, and resurrection demonstrate God’s unwavering love for us and His promise of redemption and restoration. Through Christ, we have been given a hope that transcends our circumstances and empowers us to face life’s challenges with confidence and courage.
SCRIPTURE: “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.” — Hebrews 10:23 (NIV)
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: This hope is not based on wishful thinking or empty promises, but on the unchanging character of God. It is a hope grounded in His faithfulness, His promises, and His presence in our lives. As the Apostle Paul writes in Romans 5:5, “And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.” Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: There is one source of hope that stands apart from all others, one source that offers us a hope that endures – that source is Jesus Christ.
RESPONSIBILITY: So, dearly beloved, today, as you face whatever challenges or uncertainties lie before you, remember that only Christ offers us a hope that endures.
PRAYER: Merciful Father, we praise You for the enduring hope we have in Christ, which empowers us to face adversity with courage and perseverance. In moments of weakness and doubt, strengthen our faith in His promises and presence. In the name of Jesus, we pray, Amen!
PROPHETIC WORD: May the Lord help us to lean on Him for strength and to find comfort in His unfailing love. In the name of Jesus, Amen!
BIBLE TEXTS: Hebrews 10:23, Romans 5:5
